– Why do HGV/Semi trucks feel the need to overtake each other when they’re cruising at a very similar speed?
In: Other
several good answers here, here is another one that comes up locally:
the trucker doing the passing is trying to pass because the other truck was unable to maintain speed going up a grade a few miles back and is trying to get out from behind them before the next one. In very steep grades you sometimes also see the opposite where the passing truck is the heavier truck going down a grade and they are trying to be a bit lighter on the brakes.
