many trucks have their speed regulated, meaning they cannot go any faster. If one truck can pass another truck they are going to pass it, you four wheelers do the same thing.Drivers have appointed load and unload times they have to meet, much the same as punching a time clock for you anti-truck people.
They have log books they have to follow, meaning tolls, driving time and bearth time all much match up.
Show a little patience and courtesy on the road and you will recieve the same from these drivers, they are pulling 60,000 gross if not more, they dont go O to 60 in 15 seconds and they do not stop on a dime.

What are the light regulations for cars in missouri?
There are inconsiderate drivers in all vehicles!As for trucks, trucks take a lot longer to get going, and they take a lot longer to stop. Increase the weight and speed of the truck and those distances are multiplied. Many trucks are governed, meaning they cannot go faster than a certain speed. Depending on the weight of the freight and the upgrade or downgrade of the road, the speed that the vehicle travels can change drastically in a short period of time. Truckers can tell who is carrying a heavy load, and if they are lighter they will try to get ahead of that vehicle. Give us a little patience and we will be out of the way shortly.
As for 'lord taylor's' comments to say that all trucks are always in the way, or a nuisance, or annoying... keep in mind that everything you have in your life has come to you because of a trucker. Yes, things are shipped by rail, and sea, and by air... but are you going to drive to your nearest rail depot or port to buy your groceries, or clothes, or anything for that matter? Be thankful that we are doing the stressful job that we are so that you can have the things you want. Without us you'd be naked, hungry, and living in a cave, and most certainly be walking ! As for the stone chips, etc... don't tailgate... you'll notice a big difference.
