Someone did this to me one night when Hwy 163 was still a 2-lane. It didn't last long because a state trooper was behind me, went around me and turned his lights on.
Many years ago, my father told me a story about one of his co-workers sons who thought it would be cool to pull in front of of a fully loaded twin trailer gravel hauler. The kid apparently smarter than anyone else, pulled in front of this gravel hauler and proceeded to brake check it. The kid was driving a VW Beetle, and he found out that indeed the VW Beetle could hit 90 MPH, with a little help from a truck weighing around 50 tons.
I’m a retired Truck driver. 26 years of nonsense like that makes me grateful to be at home. I’ve had 4 wheelers do that and a few Truckers do it too. It’s best just to take a off ramp and chill for a while then get back to work.
I'm a 40 year trucker. My company truck is in my driveway now; I'm cleaning it out. I'm calling the company next week to come and get it. I'm hanging up my keys - one big reason is idjits like this. (Yeah, I know about "truck abandonment"; I screwed my knee in July, and Doc is talking major surgery soon - physical therapy isn't doing the trick, steroid shots not working; I'm a flatbedder and can't drive right now...)
When ever some a-hole pulled that 💩 crap on me all the years I was driving over the road in my semi truck, I immediately called the state highway patrol and gave them the vehicle,color and plate number and backed off or pulled over and waited a few minutes while they showed up and busted their ass! The vehicle was clearly in the wrong. All you have to do is see them change lanes more than once without using a turn signal. So for the guy’s comment saying that the truck driver was at fault most likely does the same thing as the idiot did in this video. This is where a dash cam is a great idea.
That is I-80 westbound between Newton and Colfax , Iowa. I know that stretch well and everyone , including most rigs , gain speed down that steep long hill. That stretch is a safety corridor, call patrol on that suburban. He is a menace.
What is it with people who think they have right to regulate the speed of traffic. And they all seem to drive pickup trucks in large SUVs. Just because you spent "way too much money" on your vehicle doesn't mean you own the road!!!!
I live in Clinton in north east Iowa and especially in the wintertime if I have to go to Iowa City or Des Moines I avoid i80 if I can. I’ll use U S 30 if need be just to avoid it. And look at the tags on the cars being jerks on i80. More times than not it’s not Iowa tags it’s the Illinois tags being jerks! Speed limit’s 70 my cruise is set at 74 and they’ll come up behind me and ride my back bumper for awhile even though I’m in the right lane and then they’ll pass me after awhile going at least 95. The only time I’m in the left lane is to pass but as soon as it’s safe for me to get back in the right lane without cutting someone off I do. And I hate someone riding my back bumper before I can safely return to the right lane. Their definitely needs to be more Iowa State Patrol on i80 from Davenport to Des Moines
What a scumbag… you have incredible patience which is to be commended bud, I can understand how road rage happens when running into moronic drivers like that one
At this point, I'd call and report an attempted hijacking. You have no idea why he's blocking you, and you're afraid you're being set up for a hijack. I used to haul military equipment. I've had people do this. I'd call 911 and tell them I'm hauling military equipment, and I have someone trying to slow me down; I fear a hijacking. Amazing how quickly the good guys showed up!! I've called in with "fear of hijacking" on several road ragers; I've had a number go to jail - especially when the cops have me move around and observe the perp...
I had an idiot do the same thing to me on I-45 in Texas between Dallas and Houston. Except this was at about 5 am and the road was deserted except for us. He passed me, then pulled the same nonsense. I stopped as well, though I was prepared to take off and drive thru cars if it turned out to be a hijacking. But it was only an idiot.
Road stalker ...I've had this done to me in a six wheeler several times ...speed up and slow down ..change lanes when you do ...lil do they know it's all on film ...
Personally I’m puzzled as to how a OTR trucker has the time to run a TH-cam channel. All my years of running the road starting in 1976 any extra time I had I was either catching a nap or cleaning my truck.
Its all of em,, i moved here from Oklahoma , no one here can drive!!! I-80 is the worst stretch of highway Ive been on,, the I-35 exchange in Des Moines at rush hr is dumbass central!!! Iowa second worst driver’s in America!!!!
@PaulCozad That's what I did, and I'm always minding my business. If you knew me. You would know. I mind mine, and I'll make sure you're minding yours. PEACE!!!!

So dude pulled left which interfered with the trucker passing while the suburban was gaining on the car ahead of him. Big deal. Neither of them owns the road. Try defensive driving and GET OVER IT. You will live longer.
@user-cl9dy6fc6o The dude didn't want me to pass him. I let it ride and just pulled off on the shoulder. If your focus in life is make obscene jesters and trying to keep others from passing. Then you are a loser. You don't know what defensive driving is
He wouldn't let you pass so you pulled over to the side of the road ?😢 Probably just thought you were one of those truckers that want to go half a mph faster then the person in front of you, so you spend the next thirty minutes passing one car. 😂
Hey, Jimmy, that is not nice! I am an Iowan and it does not suck here! That suburban driver wasn’t very courteous but we are pretty nice here!

I figured if the other jerk here claiming “ Iowa is not as bad as Tampon Tim Walz’s Minnesota” It only fair to bring up The Orange Turd’s attempted destruction of our democracy.

@JsPerspective you're clearly speeding which was pointed out earlier. Tailgating the suburban and hogging the left lane. Plus how is anyone of us supposed to know that you didn't do something earlier that instigated all this? It's real easy to start showing the world from a certain point to make yourself look like the victim. I have a very strong suspicion that we're not getting the full story. While others on here may take you at your word I am not one of them as there are always 2 sides to a story
No law against going 74 in a 70. I sped up the beginning so people like you wouldn't say I "instigated" anything. I can't help we live in a country full of losers
@@Maidenfan83aw… gee, there, hold your bitchen…grumpy! Why don’t you just come right out admit you don’t LIKE maybe you even “HATE” truckers? Makes me want to know - What did a trucker ever do to you? 🤔 Your comment has an unreasonable and a very accusatory tone so it makes me wonder why… especially when you have an obvious dislike toward “THIS trucker,” who you don’t even know! Finally, you seem to have no idea that truckers have to deliver their cargo within a set timeframe or their company will penalize and/or fire them if they are late - just like your boss would do to if you are late to your job! But I bet you didn’t consider of that, huh? Finally, 95% (or more) of the “things” (yes, all of them) we Americans use on a daily basis are brought to us by a truck driver! So maybe you can think for a second before you gripe about a trucker the next time? Or maybe you could thank one? But I bet that is too much to ask a “super-entitled person” like you, huh?

I-80 is awful. In Iowa drivers sit in the passing lane forcing right lane passes.
