A Simi ran me into the left emergency lane in Tallahassee last week. Damn near hit the guard rail missing his tractor when he decided to come on over. Nothing worse than getting stuck behind two 18 wheelers drag racing with governor's. A 18 wheeler has no business being in the left lane.
Law of gross tonnage doesn't just apply to bicyclists. If it's applied the same way to passenger vehicles, you deserve what you get when you get on the road with larger vehicles.

Gross tonnage, laws of physics...some people just do not get it.

A governor has no place on a semi.
If governed at least let em run 80 so they can pass the ones that don't have enough power to pull a sick whore off of a piss pot.

The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
Curious on how you end up that far under the rear trailer tires, I’m around coal hauling tractor/trailers constantly.

Texting.
That's the main reason my bicycle doesn't get used hardly ever any more. Too many distracted azzwipes on the road, who can't even notice other vehicles, let alone somebody on 2 wheels. I've almost been nailed by some of those distracted drivers a few times and it seems they are always looking at their phone or something else other than the road.
There is a reason for minimum speed limits.
Betting a bicycle rarely hits those minimum speed limits but wants to blame to driver on the roadway.
