Im driving in the morning to work and about to get on my highway ramp. As I am changing the lane a dump truck on the destined lane accelerates and does not let me through. I've had my signal on for about 30 seconds and he saw it also. I bounce back to my lane almost causing and accident and he starts driving right beside me. I slow down he slows down, I accelerate he accelerates, meanwhile there is nothing in front of him. Basically I had to almost come to a complete stop, let him pass, and then do an almost U'y to get on the ramp.

But not before taking down his license plate and a nice www company site off his truck. Got to work, called my pops (who works for the ministry of transportation) gave him the info, told him what happened, he called them, gg smashed.

I like how their website has a big profile page on safety and their company standards, Im sure that's going to click when his manager calls him in. I'm pretty laid back but when it comes to trucks I am super anal, especially since they are working for companies and don't need to have an aggerssive driving stance.

Also before anyone says anything about accelerating and passing the truck, there were cars in front of me.

WTF do you drive that can't keep up with a dump truck? You said the dump truck "accelerates" and won;t let you in? So your car "accelerates" slowwer then a dump truck. :confused:

Maybe a Yugo? Those were popular in the eastern bloc, IIRC.

Hmm I could of cut him off, which I sometimes do, but seeing as he was a total crazed asshole I did not want to risk ruining my seksi car :)

A Prius, maybe? Those things are weighed down with far too much smug to accelerate quickly.

So there were cars trying to merge into the lane in front of you? I'm imagining a string of cars traveling on the shoulder, just to pass a dump truck. :confused:

I'm just saying. I've got a 36hp engine, it does me just fine and has gotten me speeding tickets before, but if a dump truck wanted to really step on it they might give me a run for my money. I think I'd actually out accelerate him, but not without a bit of space.

As of right now the dump truck pwned you. If you post an update of the driver getting suspended or something only then will you have pwned the dump truck.

Terrible driver, but lucky, I parked my car under a giant lamp post and counted around 70 ish individual bird shits upon my return. What that means in mystic terms is that my car has around 70 ish accident avoidance lives. Pretty good stuff.

It's a good job, my dad is one of the 500 people in the province with signing authority, which enables you issue licenses. Cool thing about that is that, if a cop punches in my license plate number, on his screen there is a note saying the vehical is registered to a ministry of transportation officer.

Ill let you figure out the bonuses of that ;)
