Do you signal them it's okay to turn or change lanes? Do you give them extra space to get onto the road from a parking lot?

I couldn't imagine driving one of those things. It's hard enough without the idiots driving a clunker fricking up BR interstates.

Yes, especially if they have trouble backing up into a slot.

When they put their blinker on to get in front of me, I hurry up and pass them

Depends on the situation but most of the time, yes.

Only if I suspect they are transporting drugs for a cartel.

I just drove back from Laredo. That place is a fricking wet dream come true for 18 wheel drivers.

Probably easy to buy meth and find underage girls.

I assist them with my horn if they stay in the left lane beside another big rig without passing for several minutes.

I make sure I can see one of their side mirrors when I am behind them. When I pass them I wait until I'm 20+ yards ahead of them before getting over. When they need in I drop back and flash my high beams to let them know it's safe.

Easy things to do to make driving easier for all.

I flash my lights to let them over...then they usually hit their hazards to say thank you..just trying to keep traffic moving smoothly!

Places on the border like Laredo and San Diego are big hubs for materials either crossing the border or coming back for manufacturing.

I know an 18 wheel driver. They hate when people do this. Someone who drives for a living being dreicted by a soccer mom is very disrespectful
