[quote:Anonymous Coward 27628598:MV8yMDYzMDAxXzM0NzA1OTkyX0Y3MzQ1NzI5] [quote:Anonymous Coward 28476673:MV8yMDYzMDAxXzM0NzA1OTAyXzI2RjZFQzYw] Because the truck is maxed out. We both have five hundred horse power but since my weight is twenty thousand less than his I'm able to creep past him. We do this all the time because it gets super annoying to have to slow down one mile per hour when we follow a slightly slower truck. We will agree to stop doing this if you assholes in cars stop passing on the right. It's incredibly dangerous for you because we have a blind spot over there. Just stop doing it for your own safety. The other really stupid thing you guys do is pass on the left at a high rate of speed and then slam on the brakes while swerving in front of us as you carreen off an exit. The sheer stupidity of this move is breathtaking. [/quote] you have mirrors you can see what is behind you. when you see what looks like rush hour in your rearview mirror why not drop your speed 1 mph until traffic clears behind you then take your sweet time to pass. I know what you're talking about "pass on the left at a high rate of speed and then slam on the brakes while swerving in front of us as you carreen off an exit. The sheer stupidity of this move is breathtaking." can't argue with you there [/quote]

It seems you guys do it to tie-up traffic. You go by the other rig at maybe 1 kmh (mph or whatever) taking 5 minutes some times. Are you bored man? like WTF??? Do they not realize the longer you are side by side with another big rig there is a greater chance of collision.
Why not just click your cruise down a click, or if you MUST pass then fucking step on it like the rest of us do when we pass. You never see two cars rolling down the highway in such a gay fucking hand holding way!
