Tractor pulling wagons. 2-lane state hyway. blacktop shoulder not quite wide enough for wagons. Is it better to drive completely in driving lane or stay as much on shoulder as possible? When I stay on shoulder as far as I can cars can get by me if I don't weave at all but that is pretty hard to do pulling 2 loaded wagons. So they come up on me top speed and think they can get by me. About that time I weave a little and they swerve over into oncoming traffic. Oncoming taffic than swerves off onto their shoulder, lays on the horn and gives everybody the finger. Then car passing me looks back and gives me the finger. If I drive fully in the driving lane traffic backs up sometimes 10 deep. then when there is a break in oncoming traffic they pass me and half of them give me the finger for taking up the driving lane when I should be on the shoulder. Back wagon is painted bright orange with cospicuity tape, 2 smv's and flashing lites so I have as much right to be on hyway as autos and trucks. Had a close call yesterday that is why it is on my mind today.
