Thanks Les - After being 20' from a blowout once, I always give the big guys
plenty of room. My dad taught me freeway etiquette WRT semis. It seems these
days though, We have our share of inane thought process big rig drivers,
just like our little rat racers.
In the last 5 or 6 years, I've seen road manners disintegrate just about
everywhere. I thought California was bad until I moved here...
My wife (after the initial shock and anger) said this proves how good a
driver I am. I'm not so sure. I'll always attribute this one to a) the big
guy upstairs (uh uh, not yet!), and b) quattro engineers...
