You flash your lights to let them over into your lane when they have their turn signals on and they don’t give you the little rear light courtesy acknowledgment? That’s gonna suck. I always enjoy that little acknowledgement. Makes me feel good to be an American.

I never, ever, never, ever, NEVER let a semi over. They leave their cruise on 67 to pass a truck doing 66 and stay in the lane forever. All so they can get their fuel bonus. Frick 'em let them get over when there is no risk of them holding up 50 cars in the left lane and causing all sorts of issues.

I have driven trucks before (my dad was an O/O) and he still drives once in a while. I wouldn't let him over. Well actually I would because he runs about 80 most of the time.
