Still they block the exits for cars that need to merge. Happened once to me, a train of ten trucks slipstreaming right when I needed to take an exit. Couldn't slow down and merge at the end and the head was already after the exit.
Had to match carefully speed and merge the car in a space I wouldn't have used for parking. And the asshole even blew the horn at me!
Seriously, fuck those idiots doing it. Driven for years on highways and all scary things ever only came from truck drivers needing to save those 10 bucks/five minutes.

All so you can take an exit (that you were inexplicably in the left lane when you realized you needed it) rather than just take an extra five minutes and turn around at the next exit? Hard to imagine why he blew his horn.
- kwhitefoot 11y agoThe lorry driver was in the wrong he was driving with an illegally small space between him and the vehicle in front.
- pc86 11y agoI'm not disputing that. I'm disputing the intelligence of looking at a spot barely big enough for your car that is moving at highway speeds and sandwiching yourself between two vehicles, either one of which could kill you with inertia alone, and then wondering why you might get honked at for it.
- LoSboccacc 11y agonot every state has 5 minutes between exit luxury highways
- pc86 11y agoSo? Distance between exits doesn't change the fact that what he did was reckless and dangerous.
