I very much appreciate the work truckers do.

However, 90% of the people who cut me off just to go 10+ miles under the speed limit are truckers.

Like y’all are already going slow, why inconvenience 10 other drivers in the fast lane who are all going to pass you in 30 seconds.

Truck drivers aren't even allowed to go in the fast lane where I've lived.

Who cares? Without trucks moving goods, we literally have nothing and society as we know it doesn’t exist.
