Actually, semis and cars do not mix on the same highways anymore than bicycles and cars. However, we all have to work together. I see car drivers do some really dumb things at times that cause indigestion for semi drivers. But I also see the opposite. And just becasue you are 80,000 LBS and need momentum, it does give any of you the right to make your own laws. Another irriation is when there is a lane closed, semi drivers will sometimes get side by side to block cars from passing. If it is legal to pass, you need to not block the highway. Again, we have to share the road, but we really need speacial roads for semis AND bicycles, they just do not mix. As for getting down the on ramp, the key to merging is acutally being at the pseed of the highway, not pulling down to the merge lane and stopping or slowing down. A 20 MPH vehicle cannot effectively merge with traffic that is running 65 MPH wihtout upsetting something.
