    One my many trip from CO to OK, I had this situation. Obviously Dad was more comfortable with higher speeds while his poor missed white knuckled struggled to keep up to the piont of cutting peaple off everytime he changed lanes.

    A properly driven "chase" car actually initiates the lane changes. Kinda like a blocker defines the run game, not the running back.

    Dead on target, with a good analogy as well. OTOH, if the one driving the truck has forgotten that, you're kinda screwed.

    And of course, in a lot of places when you try to clear the lane for the truck, some idiot will move into that spot from your right. They say "nature abhors a vaccum"? Hell, traffic obliterates one.
