When I'm already in the lane, and the trucker just comes over on top of me forcing me to have to emergency brake and run off the road onto the dirt is what I'm talking about. It has happened 3 times at least, due to negligent truck drivers trying to murder me.
When I am already occupying the lane, they have no legal right to simply force me out of the way by signaling a turn and coming over into the space that my car already occupies.
Oh absolutely, and that’s happened to me before as well. Not saying it doesn’t happen, but that’s why I generally stay back, accelerate fast, and skip the whole issue most of the time
