Years back I was making a trip down to Florida. An eighteen wheeler empty flat bed got in the left lane and was running at least ten under, as was the rig on the right, a rolling road block. They held every one up for over fifty miles. At one point, a long climb, the road opened to three lanes and we managed to sneak by even though the trucker straddled the white line. After passing, I lowered my window and offered the single digit salute. Found out his rig could do over 60! Over 70, over 80, over 90. He got on my tail so close I could see nothing but grill out the center mirror several times. Thanks to his road blocking, the freeway was clear for miles, so nothing to avoid. When we got to the next city, traffic entering forced me to the left lane, with him tight behind. the Second ramp was my exit, and I took it from the left lane. It was on a rise, and as I got to the top of the ramp, I could see the other side of the rise, probably a dozen police cars. There was one at the top of the ramp also. He flagged me, asked if I was OK, then sent me on my way. That is one of the few times I ever felt the need to display anger.
