Asking life's probing questions, OP. Good work!

I have long had a very similar question. Why do you truck drivers not allow ME to pass before you do it? I mean, I have my cruise control set on a smooth 80-87 or so, rolling right along, open road, couple trucks up there, and sure enough, the one will pop right over into my fast lane and ruin my groove. Seriously? You couldn't just let me go by first?? I mean, I kinda get it when there's traffic, you've got to go sometime yada yada. But one car?? It's kinda rude guys.

Please don't get all offended and tell me how important you are. I know and respect that, promise. I just wonder, why can't I pass before you swerve over? Why?? It's not like I'm a slowpoke or anything. Sigh.

maybe he's been speeding up to overtake for the last 5 minutes, and he doesn't want to slow down to let you pass, then spend another 5 minutes trying to get up to speed?

or do you think trucks can accelerate as fast as your car?

ooh, is that why?? hmmm. that makes sense i guess! it always looks like the two of them are just up ahead close to each other and then the one pops over all of a sudden. i can't wait to explain this to other people and seem all smart next time it happens LOL! thanks for enlightening me Aussie ac!

Original Message 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!
