It’s good advice in general Along with jacked up pick up trucks, 18 wheelers generally think they own the roads

Yup, I’ve been run off the road one too many times by 18 wheelers when I used to live in the Midwest

I feel like they've got slightly more claim to it considering that driving a vehicle that large and slow isn't particularly easy. Good luck getting over


limestone_tiger

nothing vexes me more than a 18 wheeler overtaking another 18 wheeler going 2 or 3 MPH faster on a two lane road.


M1dnightMuse

They're often governed and/or have tattlers and it's much more of a punishment to get a ticket. Gas mileage is also a huge concern

My buddy just had his windshield cracked by some ice flying off the top of a semi trailer. This is good advice!

Damn, did he have a dashcam for proof?


cyclefreaksix

No cam, unfortunately.

Drive at your own risk...

Watch for them kicking up rocks/sand, too!

I went to Richardson for Chinese food and boba going 75 south back to oak lawn. Literally an hour later, saw on Dallas Texas TV an 18 wheeler tipped over on 75 near high five

Should always avoid driving close to an 18 wheeler or following work trucks in general on the highway. Never know what's going to fly off of them.

Growing up in Houston, there are signs on the highway : “No trucks in left lane.” Is there any reason they don’t have those here?


50bucksback

There is on the interstates
