When we get to the spot where the west bound lanes go from 2 lanes to 3, THere's a semi in the left lane and 2 semis passing in the right by about 0.1mph. I managed to pass the one semi on the right. In my rear view, I noticed that after I passed, that semi moved right. Then one of the other two semis moved from the left lane to the center lane. For the next mile or two, all I saw behind me were those 3 semis side by side by side across all 3 lanes. Fargin' wankers! (but at least I was in front of them and not stuck behind them)
