There are times when I really wish I could peer into somebody’s mind and figure out just what in the hell is going on in there. Today on the drive to work, I was following three semis, all from the same trucking company. I passed the last one in line on a dotted yellow, so I was sandwiched between the first two and the last one. When our lane opened up into two lanes, the first semi immediately got over to the right, but the truck in front of me stayed over to the left. I only waited a few seconds to give him his shot at getting the fuck out of my way, then I gunned it and took off to the right. Just about as my front bumper cleared the back of his trailer, the fucker signaled and started getting in the right lane. I said, “Fuck that,” and kept my foot on the pedal. He eventually stopped moving to the right, after almost squishing my car against the cement barrier. So I get around this asshole, and cut the wheel hard left to cut him off while getting around his buddy in the front, and the truck in front moves over to the left! Asshole. So I had to cut right again and fly past the other moron doing about 90.
It almost makes you wonder if they plan shit like that in advance, ’cause there’s no reason for a convoy of three trucks from the same company to be blocking all the fucking lanes.
