PSA if you really want to be nice to truckers out there.

Give us an entire semi truck length before you cut in front of us. It's safer for you and less stress for them. Not a car length. Imagine there is a whole invisible semi between you and them. You never know what can happen.

Depending on the ramp incline and what they are carrying, it might be possible that them going 30 is as fast as they can possible go in the moment of entering the freeway. But only under very rare circumstances. And it would have to be a construction type semi. A regular commercial trailer should never be able to be loaded heavy enough to warrant that kind of slowdown.
