They are supposed to move over or at least
slow down here in Michigan for tow truck,
police, ambulance, emergency and our
municipal vehicles. They will usually get
over for a police car out of fear of being
ticketed, but they could care less if
you're trying to fix the road, they know we
can't ticket them. Can't tell you how many
times myself or one of our crew has almost
been hit on 127. We have a field on US27
which is 127 with a little slower speed
limit in that portion. I have to pull out
on 27 from my road, immediately cross 27 to
the inside shoulder so I can turn into our
driveway 400 yards down on the opposite
side of the highway. Even with a large
break in traffic, if you don't immediately
jump across to the shoulder along the
passing lane, the cars will catch you and
you'll never be able to get over to the
other side you need to be at to get to the
cross over drive. Due to the steep banks on
the center median, you can only get over so
far, and you will still have your implement
half into the passing lane. It is only 2
lanes, but people will still be passing the
slower cars in the right lane, in the
passing lane, even though my implement is
half into that lane. They just swerve
around it, miss it by a foot or so, shove
the person they're passing onto the
shoulder, and continue on their way. It's
not just young, stupid kids, I see probably
more 50-70 year a-holes that seem to think
they are much more important than everyone
else on the road with them.
