Wow...the comments on this thread are more callous than I had anticipated. The story is a good story. Sure, these things happen in all professions - that policewoman that put her life on the line chasing some young drug kingpin in the back of an alley last week, just lost her baby 2 months ago - but that doesn't make this story less true and require less empathy.
I never understood the road rage thing.
If you know that there is a big truck in front of you (or near you) on the freeway, and you know they might drive aggressively, do what you need to get away as quickly as you can. Either slow down, or overtake, in a responsible way.
But no need to be a douchebag about it. Sure, you may have been bad-driven by truck drivers in the past, but believe me...that's not bad driving.
Come to Jamaica where EVERYBODY bad drives EVERYBODY, it's a regular occurrence. You can either get pissed and cuss everybody, or you can let it roll off your shoulders and not let it bother you.
Just protect yourself, drive responsibly and don't get flustered.
