      It's not the fast lane, it's the passing lane. Calling it the "fast lane" makes people think they can just hang out there for going 5 over the limit.
      It's the "passing lane" because speed is irrelevant. If someone is trying to pass you, you move over when it's safe to yield to the traffic going faster than you.

      @@greenmanjph My mom drove a truck for 20 years. I have first hand experience with truck drivers, and while they are certainly not a monolith, there's definitely some stereotypes. It is not at all uncommon to come across a trucker who fancies themselves "a quiet genius who chose the simple life", or something to that effect. Stories of what an amazing life they've lived, like they were some high level engineer who knows all these incredible things, or they had a $20 million business but decided to go into trucking...all just falsehoods and wild embellishments to placate their heavily bruised ego so they can avoid facing the fact that they simply drive a truck and that's all they've ever amounted to. Certainly no shame in it and it's an essential function for which I'm grateful they all do, but at the end of the day, let's just acknowledge all it really is to keep these type of guys in check.

    8.1, .2 & .3: Having lived in Germany for three years, the cardinal rule of the Autobahn is to always--ALWAYS--yield the left lane to faster moving traffic. KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS is not just a saying on a sign. Back in the states, I always move right, but sometimes I come up behind a truck driver who is just a normal 4-wheeler sitting in a big rig with no training about how to correctly use the roads, causing along in the left lane with the right lane completely clear. Maybe it's because there's a shortage of drivers, but in any case, I rarely pass a truck on its right side. So today we see one of those truckers who can't stand not being in the left lane--are you from New Jersey or New York?--and here he/she is, getting brake checked by other 18 wheelers! and cut off aggressively by truckers forced to pass on the right. LEARN HOW TO DRIVE!

Shocked the gym teacher/driving instructor when I merged onto I-80/I-94 by flooring the car in the acceleration lane to get to 65 mph--he freaked out like I was pretending to be Mario Andretti! I said, "I thought we were supposed to merge at speed with the other traffic" but I guess that wasn't good enough for him. You know the drill: if someone's behind you, they want to go faster than you, so let them by. In 10 minutes they're either 7 miles up the road, or you're passing them one more time. But nothing to get worked up over.

      Has to do with physics. Safest home-type demonstration I can come up with would need an R/C car, a towel, and a wall. Rig the towel as a funnel, held down, and send the R/C car through it at some (fixed, ideally) speed--it'll take a bit to stop. That's like truck brakes, they'll slow you then stop you. Add mass to the car, same speed, it takes longer to stop. Move the car faster, it'll take longer to stop. Slower, shorter. Tighten the towel (improve the brakes) and it'll stop a bit faster. Now... bounce it off of a book or your foot into the towel. A lot of the momentum gets absorbed by the impact. If an air line gets knocked loose as well, that helps a bit too as it triggers the brakes on.
      Or, to put this all a much shorter way: What stops you faster, 5 axles worth of brakes that are guaranteed to slide even when they're working or 1.5 tons of idiot 4-wheeler that just cut you off?

    I can't believe how many ppl will brake check a semi-truck... a feeling of power maybe, but a game you can't win..

    Half of the professional drivers could use more caution.

    I wish that part of drivers instruction included first hand experience in how much more distance it takes to come to a stop with a heavy load.

    If #8 is the same guy they are telling you to get the fuck out of the left lane.

    I used to work in a truck stop and heard the truckers cussing out 4 wheelers. Now I understand. Some people think an 18 wheeler is as maneuverable as a car and can brake quickly too.. WRONG !!!!
