Always give semi-trucks respect and room on the road. Stopping in your sedan may take only a few moments, but a tractor-trailer may take five times as long with all the weight they are hauling.

Thankfully, the naturally upset truck driver was able to stop with no one getting hurt and only a small scrape to his tractor.
