It doesn't matter what vehicle you are driving, expect the other driver to be too aggressive so be prepared to react.
Can I tell you I feel like this year I have witnessed the most aggressive driving? I got my CDL about a year ago, I can be going 55 MPH with 50,000lbs of weight and people will blow through stop sings, yields and merges to get in front of me. Last week had a crotch rocket pass a fleet of our dump trucks on the wrong side of the road and he would have hit my front bumper if I didn't swing to the right. Today some guy in a Mercedes was literally under my frame in a yielding zone, as I crept forward I couldn't see any gap between my rear tires and his doors. I was wishing in the worst way I was going to flatten his car without intentionally doing so.
