It would be really great to reward this guy by being extra considerate to truckers when we're out on the road. My brother-in-law drives for "Wally-World" and often complains how difficult it is to make necessary lane changes in heavy traffic, that 4-wheelers often speed up to prevent a truck from getting in front of them.

I see that all the time too, people need to understand that the left lane if for passing only, increase your speed from cruise, then get over into the right lane as soon as possible.

What I saw with the truckers while on a trip through Arkansaw, that state has road construction for 10 to 15 mile stretches on I-40, and as it starts to go down to one lane, drivers come up in the opposite lane to try to squeeze/cut in, those truckers/side by side Blocked those lanes and would not let them in and none of us would either, I thought this was the best defense I had ever seen, those drivers were really pissed, but it was funny to me. Never did get to say thanks to any of the truckers for this.
