Take a ride on the Huey P. Long between Harrahan and Bridge City near New Orleans some day. Watch out for the 24 inch jog to the left when you come to the main span coming from the East Bank. Each lane is exactly 8' wide. Big rigs simply take up a lane and a half
The dirty son's ... big rig drivers on I-95 in CT and I-81 in VA drive those rigs like the family van. 80mph about 15 feet off your rear bumper. If you have the misfortune of going on I-91 from New Haven to Hartford, go at least 80 in the left lane or you'll get tailgated like nothing -- at least there are three lanes in long stretches of I-91.
The whole country has gone lawless when it comes to driving. The speed limit signs and caution signs are some wacko attempt at legislating behavior.

Your: all the trackers fault, is ignorant!
I dive a truck and the stupid driving I see everyday by "four wheelers" cannot be recounted on a ream of paper.
The lady in this story is alive because of this truckers actions!

That was the first thing that came to my mind. To meet deadlines or what ever those big TT units will come right up to your bumper. That portion of 95 does have it share of accidents.
