It’s crazy to me how many pickup trucks with trailers drive so recklessly, it’s like they don’t know they are hitching something. I see other cars being accommodating to them by slowing down more than usual to let them merge in.

Had one doing that while I was going the same speed as the 10 cars in front of me on the highway during traffic the. He was flashing his lights and when there was an opening on my right he changed lane and then I saw… The guy was in a funk size truck and was pulling a 20’ trailer and was trying to pass me on the right and squeeze between me and the car in front of me so he would have been stuck behind them instead. I didn’t give him enough space, he got back behind me even more angry than before and 3km later reached his exit so he wouldn’t have saved a single second if I had let him through.

I’ve seen one stuck sideways on the highway with his trailer flipped on its side and another driving in the middle of the night in the fog without any working lights on the trailer… Maybe they should require an exam before you can tow…

Was driving on the highway and it was packed. It wasn’t stop go, but we were under the speed limit with cars lined up as far as you can see.
I look in my review and I can’t even see the headlights of the guy behind me over my bumper. (I’m in a sedan, not a high bumper by a long shot). This is a dangerous situation so I ease off the gas and move over as soon as I get a chance.
This guy then proceeds to pass me, move in front of me, and slow down. I’m sorry, I thought you were in a rush considering how much you were riding my ass, but looks like you have plenty of time to be an asshole.
Next gap in the left lane and I pull over and accelerate, he doesn’t have room to get in front of me, and doesn’t have room to get behind me again due to all the cars.
I have no idea how long he had to wait to get back into the left lane, but for someone so impatient he was very effective at wasting his own time.
