I never have a semi next to me. Especially when approaching an entrance ramp! Always know where your at and what's around you and what is coming up. This will allow you to change lanes to let others in stupid or not!
I take it you have not driven I-65 south of Indy. They are double stacked for miles. We went to Indy for a VA appt last week and there was a semi in the left lane next to another semi in right lane. He stayed there for almost 10 miles traveling about 66 mph in 70 mph zone for cars and 65 for trucks. The one in the left lane had cars backed up for a long ways behind him. I almost hate driving to Indy for this reason, but US-31 is even worst with its stop and go lights for 40 miles straight. I drive like all the rest of the drivers are idiots. Get to my destination safe and sound, whether 10 miles or 7,000 mile vacation trip across country.
