What the fuck is wrong with you? All the other truckers are in the right lane where they should be, doing 30 miles an hour in a 75. But you get the dip shit Idea that because you can do 31 miles an hour you should pass on the left blocking dozens, sometimes hundreds of vehicles The entire way up the mountain before you can get your slow ass back into the right lane. DONT PASS ON AN UPHILL ROAD you inbred, uncle daddy having, toothless whore buying, Chris Hansen hating, plaid shirt wearing, cross dressing, retarded neck beard goat fucking son of a bitch. 3/10 |

Work by the side of a highway. Passenger vehicles here move over to the inside lane if it is free the vast majority of the time. Truckers don't half the time.

Beyond frustrating. The wife says people are not being inconsiderate, they're just inattentive. It sure seems like it is often intentional in my experience. Serenity now...

My trucks can pass going up hill... Without slowing anyone down - unless you're excessively exceeding the speed limit.

That's when you pull in front of the bastard and slow down. Make him start shifting and lose lots of speed. You'll probably not see him again after that.

In CO most highways are 75, truckers go 60-65 and plug up the left lane trying to pass on the millions of mountains and hills we have here.

Rage-inducing, especially on the Autobahn in Germany, where trucks are already limited to a max speed of 100kph (~60 mph).
Just west of Chiemsee on Autobahn A-8, there's a long grade uphill toward Munich. Without fail, the piece of shit Iveco trucks coming out of Italy decide to have a side-by-side elephant race up that fucking hill. They barely have the power to do 100kph on a flat stretch, and they usually fall to well below that on the way up the hill. Sort of like this:

I also like the move in the flatlands where you enter the left lane to pass two semis when the following driver decides now is the time to pass...at 1MPH faster than the lead truck.
"Guess I'll just hang back here for a mile or two..." |

Yep you can thank cali for that. 55MPH all the way from the CA state line to So Cal (in between vegas and So cal) what a nightmare. All the 55MPH truck speed does is plug up traffic. |

"Guess I'll just hang back here for a mile or two 10 freaking miles..." I recently drove from SE TN to central WI and back. Truckers requiring 10 miles to pass another truck were the most common obstruction to the flow of traffic. I know they are trying to get were they are going as quickly as they can and probably have a lot of pressure to do so but....it is totally inconsiderate of all the other people on the road. |

Yep.
The truck cocksuckers on S/B Interstate 15 in CA are some of the worst. There are clear lane restriction signs on those grades. Right lane only for trucks. I watched a brodozer dive right and brake to a stop once after an elephant race. The traffic on the left was solid for miles. Brought about 20 trucks to zero speed on that grade before he split. Hilarious. |

It really is quite simple, they are doing their job. Time is money to most truck drivers the quicker they get from point a to point b the quicker they can get another load and do more work and make more money. It may seem infuriating to those who can't think past their own little world but those minutes add up quick when ALL you do is drive.
