This is from a ride 10 years ago in MA - we were going about 20 mph, truck maybe 35-40. What you don't see is that my friend is rolling his shoulders to the right, he was dodging because it felt really close. Police said there was nothing to do (showed them the clip). My friend next to truck is a legislative lawyer and understood there was nothing to do, except to make a report.

This to me just looks like aggression from that truck. I know everyone has diff perspective, but to me - how hard is it to move over into other lane for 10 seconds at most. Yes I see a car approaching but looks like enough room to give some room.

Inconsiderate 100%. That kind of driver just sets me off.
