    Yes, go ahead of both of them or get behind them. Motorcyclists ride together for safety. Two or more are more easily seen than just one. You do not have the right to divide them if there is only enough space between them to squeeze your car in. 

    No other motorist has to "get out of your way" just because you want to change lanes.It's up to you to change your lane safely,when the road is clear.Either pull ahead of them to a sfe distance or fall back behind them.

    Get out of his way. He has a lot of truck to maneuver between 4 wheelers who like to run all bunched up like a flock of sheep. Truckers need a buffer that little cars like to get into so they need to change lanes to get the buffer back or to catch their exit coming up that 4 wheelers like to tie up the lane for. :)

    If they haven't driven a truck for a living they jusst don't get it.I could write a book about the number of people/cars that have jumped in front of me just before a red light & hit the brakes.It's a common sense rule.Give the big guys some space.

    LOL, well clu, at least the truckers make life interesting for a few minutes. Sort of like the high you get on an amusement park ride, huh?

    Yes Tommy, the big trucks need room. We do not crowd fat people do we? We give them room to maneuver. Give the big trucks the same maneuvering room ;)

    This intersection I'm speaking of is wild! When the semis"s signal left I'm trying to hide! The signal- the Move! Just like that! This is coming out of Chicago, going east!

    I've known intersections like that. The only way a trucker can make it is to just drive. Sometimes (like those intersections) we have to use the trucks size to our advantage. Otherwise, we would get nowhere. We would have to just stop right there in the lane and let the cars buzz all over like a bee swarm.

    Colleen, I understand what you are saying! I move! It only takes about 2 trips to understand the rules - When the semi signals-- Move it! I do Also I avoid going on that route as much as possible! I've had semis give me an escort down a rain drenched road too! All good for me!
