I don't really care why the truck was in the left lane or the laws about passing. Just because somebody is jaywalking, you don't speed up and try and hit them....well...unless you're an idiotic truck driver.
Red neck trucker, says no to this blonde trying to merge

LOL Thank your provincial Gov't for that.. setting everyone at 105 KM. Takes 30 minutes to pass the other rig.
Best measure, as a trucker, is set your speed control to 102 mph, let people pass and slow down if a rig is having problems overtaking you..
Well, I saw it as he sped up to close the gap. Hitting her was just a bonus.
She is wrong. He is an a-s-s-wipe. Being an a-s-s-wipe is not illegal.
That's debatable. There's a thing called negligence.

Cites Canadian Law for a incident in the USA. :roll:
Geography not Cannuck's strong point. :lol:
Boomer, he's commenting on what Ski said, which is in the context of a Canadian perspective.
In which case it would be...
"Thanks to the dash cam, we'd charge the truck driver with dangerous driving." Again, from the YRP Officer I'm talking to presently.

I was on the on ramp entering the interstate in his plain view and the hophead hit the accelerater which would have been fine if there were to have been a merging lane which in the retarded town of Albuquerque there was not. He did not need to slow down all he had to do was maintain his current rate of speed. I was accelerating but this biotch wanted to race so he sped up leaving me no where to go whatsoever. The bastard scraped the side view mirror as he sped by and my daughter and I just damn near ran out of road space . Some of those truck drivers are hopheads. They need to be randomly pulled over to see how fvckin high they are before they kill people.
And if they are hopped up on Meth to stay awake they need to come down, and get some sleep,,,,,in fvcking jail.

Why not.. he should be charged with aggressive driving.
Aggressive Driving Laws.
Still doesn't negate her responsibility in the incident and she could also be charged.
I was in Oregon on highway 1 years ago cruising along the coast highway , doing the speed limit and enjoying the drive when all of a sudden I looked in the rear view and here comes this fvckin log truck hauling azz and when he got damn near right up my azz I had to pull off the road so he didn't kill me. Another hopped up trucker thinking he owns the fvckin road.
A jaywalker should be charged as well. Any idiot that speeds up in an attempt to hit them should never have a license again
Overall though Oregon is the best place to drive. Laws there to keep truckers less aggressive.
He should have maintained speed, or slowed down or moved over.
As I've stated before, he is the Professional Driver and they need to act accordingly. Unfortunately I see a lot of truckers that use their size to push people around.
I have long advocated for every truck in Canada to have (1) eLogs (PeopleNet or Qualcomm) and (2) Drive Cams which generally needs to be approved by Safety and Compliance with these big companies such as Bison, XTL and they don't want the added expense.

DriveCam watches the road and also watches the driver.. so it's recording the driver, to see if he is talking on the phone, texting, paying attention, and so on.
If you're following the rules of the road and driving safe there should be no issue with a DriveCam.. if you're not, then you shouldn't be on the road.
A: The trucker is a dick. Not technically at fault though.
B: That dumb broad obviously didn't look. That is an unsafe lane change. She should be charged for the accident.
C: As Bear mentioned earlier the move of passing on the right is legal if done safely. Really almost anything is legal when driving if it is done safely.

I like to quote my late uncle when he use to get on the cb radio and say,,,"all truckers,,,,,are fvckers"
