For those of you who think that semi drivers have a tough job and we should be nice to them, drive around Vegas for a while. I try to be nice to semis - good following distance, not changing lanes directly in front of them, letting them in to traffic, etc.
However, when I see construction trucks running red lights, cutting people off, and dropping gravel all over it tends to diminish the amount of good will I feel towards people in the trucking industry.
Good thing this behavior is only really present in the short-haul construction guys. I'm still as nice as I can be to long haulers and non-construction trucks. I just don't feel like cutting slack for someone running a red light in a semi - that seems a little too dangerous.
