and he wanted you to get the heck out of his way

Does that fit what you saw, mamab? The way you told it, it sounded like if he hadn't honked, you'd have been out of his way anyway -- as if he wanted you to let him lead. I agree that's weird.

What ladyinred describes sounds more common - move over, I'm hauling.

That's exactly what I saw. It was really wierd. I have been on I-65 here in Alabama and we have been on that one in GA and I have never seen one act like he did. If he had either speeded up or slowed down some, he could have gotten in either of the left lanes anyway. My brothers and nephew use to drive trucks for a family business in MS so I take care to really watch out for them and if I can help them get out of a jam, then I do it. I have had them honk at me for doing that but never like today. Do you think that he had his radio on and knew about something up the road and he wanted to be in front of us for that? We use to have a CB radio and would talk with them on the road so I wish we had had one today. Oh well. Another puzzle for us!! Jan and I use to have a lot of fun with them when either of us had to go down to B'ham for dr's appts. They kind of looked out for us. When they slowed down, then we did too. Guess they kept us from getting a few tickets!!
