    We got that guy on our dash cam. Mustang came flying up on driver's side and started to change lanes into the side of our truck. My husband thinks maybe the mustang driver though he was passing a motor home and there was more space in front and started changing lanes where he thought there was space. As it turns out he didn't make the exit.

    Even that’s too much motion. As evidenced by the number of hilarious (albeit, sad) videos of pedestrians walking into doors, traffic, fountains, etc.!

    90% of the dangerous driving I see from trucks pulling fifth wheels is done by transport companies. Example: flying along an interstate at 70 miles an hour in freezing rain! We have joined the ranks of the 60 mile-an-hour haulers, too, for better fuel mileage and less stress on the truck and the trailer. Our thought is that traffic isn't a problem when you're the slowest one on the road.

    Me too. Just came down to Tampa Bay FL from SE Louisiana. Never went over 63. Don't see a need to push the limits of my equipment. My 5er is my home so I want to be able to live in it when I get to my next destination. I leave early with plenty of time toget where I'm going.

    yup, that goes on everywhere everyday. I retired in '13 after 24 years od service at the big brown machine in the seat of a semi. Seen many things. Usually turns out they can't get their stuff stopped or turned or get the tail to stop wagging the dog. Its never pretty

    Right there with you... I figure if they don't like the speed I am going they, should have left earlier, can go around, take a different route, wait till I pull over to let collected traffic by. High speed is just exhausting, hard enough watching for the idiots at a reasonable speed.
