I take it this is just a game they play and these people are seriously not that stupid?
They were side by side at 55 mph for a good 5-10 minutes and really irritates me!

R124/LA420 said:It comes down to the driver on the left, not lifting off a tad to allow the guy on the right to get past, its bloody stupid, but most truck drivers do this.
It takes a lorry that long to go from 48mph to 56mphK.C. Leblanc said:Because getting back up to speed take ages and would possibly lead to another lorry trying to come past him.
Dogbreath said:I totaly disgree. The driver on the right should not have attempted the overtake if he couldn't complete it quickly without the other driver having to slow down. What makes his delivery more important than the other drivers? Drivers shouldn't rely on others compensating for their own inadequate driving.
I suffer this stupidity every time I drive to work, and if it isn't trucks it's some moron in a car doing 60mph past a line of trucks oblivious of the big queue of cars behind them.
