Truckers, never swerve and never stab your brakes to avoid an idiot. Your dashcam footage will exonerate you. Best to take out the idiot than risk swerving out of your lane and taking out innocent folks.

In the UK, it's normally up to the rear driver to make sure they have sufficient stopping space - unless the vehicle in front slams on the brakes for no good reason or reverses. Is it different in the States?

I’ve fallen asleep 2times while driving. The first was in 1983. I was driving my dad’s 83 Toyota 4WD pickup reg cab long bed, 4cyl, 5spd. My dad was in the back sleeping. The truck had a cap on the bed and my dad had made a shelf over the wheel wells so anyone could sleep in the bed using the full width and length of the bed. I was heading north on highway 97 just south of Bend, Oregon. We were going to stop in Bend, get a bite to eat, some coffee and switch drivers and continue on. They were doing road construction on the side of the highway. I fell asleep and drifted into the oncoming lane. A Semi truck was heading south towards Weed, CA. I wasn’t fully asleep but I was more asleep than awake. The trucker began to flash his lights at me, but it didn’t make sense to me. Then I could hear his horn. At the last moment I realized that we were going to be in a head on crash. I cut the steering wheel hard to the right and ended up hitting the mougals on the right side of the road. That Toyota bounced violently. I glanced in my rear view mirror only to see my dads body hitting the top of the cap and the on the shelf. I got the truck back onto the road and my dad opened up the sliding rear window to the cap and the cab and yelled, “What the hell was that?” Without missing a beat, all I said was, “Road construction”. He went back to sleep until I pulled into the Kopper Kettle in Bend, OR. I was wide awake after that, but went to sleep quickly in the bed of the truck. I never told my dad the truth, but did tell my mom and she cracked up laughing.

People need to remember that truckers can’t stop on a dime. Then need more time then a car to stop because of weight. And length of vehicle that’s why you don’t cut them off. Don’t be stupid. It’s a freaking highway. They’re doing 6570 and you come off the offramp and you cut them off. Don’t be an asshole. My brother is a truck driver. My uncle was a truck driver for 40 years cell phones you’re talking you don’t pay a damn attention.
