How do you mess with big rig drivers?

Most of them are horrible drivers now. They run people off the road and run red lights. I want to make them crash and die without getting hurt myself.

They need to die in a fiery crash without hurting other motorists. It seems like they let anyone drive a big rig now even if they don't have skills to drive one.
 
I respect them. They have a bigger vehicle than me, and it takes more for them to slow it down and speed it up. They are also often put under unrealistic deadlines forcing them to speed at times.
 
Mess with? That sounds bad.

They're people like me and you. Not better or worse. They drive for a living and have to deal with traffic constantly. Just consider this: When you are stuck in bad traffic and have to deal with all the traffic, imagine how much worse that would be with a tractor trailer.

As far as being horrible drivers, its not so much the driving part but the courtesy and decent part. People are so stressed out these days, especially when driving, that they lose sight of everything. Their anger, personal problems or whatever it might be gets top priority while everything else doesn't seem to matter.

This goes for everybody including truck drivers. We're all a part of the mess. Try to not make it any worse by doing something erratic.

that doesn't give them the right to drive without regard to anyone else. Many of them still come into adjacent lanes whenever a car is right besides them instead of waiting for it to be clear.
 
I'm guessing it's probably you that's the shitty driver because I've logged hundreds of thousands of miles on the road and truckers have been uniformly great drivers. If you really want to fuck with them, I suggest going on the interstate, get in front of a truck, and then drop the car in first gear without using your brakes. That'll show 'em.
 
CB radio for starters, lol... then you can at least talk back and voice your disdain...

j/k.. if they are driving that badly / aggressively the best bet get safe get plate / truck number call 911...

but most truck drivers act like arrogant hot shots which make them even worse.

i'm not sure if 911 would have done anything.

Today I witnessed a truck move over to then next lane and almost side swiping 2 cars next to him because he didn't want to slow down for a bus that is partial blocking his lane.

Sad but that is common. Especially in the city with those public transportation buses, happens all the time!!!!!!!!!! I hate that... I don't want to get hit for fear of death so I always yield!!!
