Comments: on KSP looking for aggressive drivers

About: "KSP looking for aggressive drivers"

ColumbiaMagazine.com:

In reference to the caption with the picture of the car passing the big truck. It is not a warning against tailgating it is a warning against getting back in front of a truck too soon after passing it on the interstate. Specifically telling cars and pickup trucks to leave room in front of a commercial truck after passing. Thank You for your time.
