I was tailgated today by a semi-trailer driven by a Red Carpet

I don't understand how he could be following you and doing 10-15 kph over
the speed limit unless you were speeding too.

LOL!

And the dispatcher couldn't be bothered because their bullshit
detector was in perfect calibration, and Safety ain't exactly their
department anyway.
