While doing my normal run from Phoenix to Houston to Ft Worth and back to Phoenix, I find something that is a real pain in the rear end. Well, left rear corner that is. Why is it that when it comes to passing some people seam not to know how to pass. They race up to you and then just sit there. I'm keeping my truck in my lane. There really is no reason not to pass. But still they sit there, until I come up on slower traffic and have to slow down my self. At that point they will pass. By the time they do pass they have backed up traffic in the left lane. Now I know it will take me some time before I will get a chance to pass. If you are going to pass, then pass, don't just sit there. This goes for 4 wheelers and yes you truck drivers also. I have been behind other truckers in the left lane and have seen these drive go from 75 mph to 68 mph while passing. Once that have finished there pass and there are 1/2 mile passed what ever there were passing, they move back over to the right lane and then its time to speed up again. Whats with that? Like I said, if you are going to pass, then pass already. Don't just sit there thinking about it! MOVE IT!
Now that I got that off my chest I feel better now. As alway please be careful out there.
