Oh and guess what? That whole "following too close" traffic offense where the vehicle to the rear is the one at fault and gets the citation?
Nope, doesn't apply here. In several states this is automatically two citations. Reckless driving AND cutting off a semi. If the cop sees you do it, is even possible to get arrested for it.
It gets even better: if you cause a wreck you'll still get cited AND your insurance might not cover you... that's if you live. If you don't, your life insurance might not cover you either, leaving your family in the lurch.
I haven't seen people slam on brakes in front of lorries (trucks) here in the UK, though I'm not saying it doesn't happen. What on earth does someone think they are going to achieve by doing this?
One time a whole highway where I live closed down for 14 hours because an 18 wheeler fell off the highway and crushed cars below that were waiting in traffic
I live in Tornado heavy area, and once we saw a lot of 18 wheelers get lifted up off the ground and flung around like leaves

Then get the fuck out of the left lane. The only reason for someone to brake check is because you're jamming up traffic and spitting up rocks uneducated, overpaid and totally replaceable. You'll all be out of jobs with selfdriving trucks soon anyways, then traffic can flow freely and as intended.
Tf are you going on about ? This isn't the trucks fault and they were at the back. Also self driving trucks won't eliminate traffic jams and the people taking jobs driving dangerous vehicles to help people and support their families aren't responsible for the physics of the road and tires and for other drivers being dumb on the road
My uncle is one in California. He and his coworkers got upset because they recently changed the recertification test questions and now they all "actually have to read the manuals and know the laws, what kind of bullshit is that, nobody has that kind of time."
Talk about uneducated...The interstate system was designed for commercial goods and military transports..all funded by ifta..aka our road taxes...cars had to use the us highway routes..as for uneducated..I have a masters in criminology and worked in law enforcement for 20 years,retired and drive trucks now..just hitting my 2 million safe miles with the same company..If you don't like the traffic we cause...stay off OUR highway and go back to your little 2 lane roads ....you seeping anal discharge
