The guy's driving a semi trailer in the left passing lane while on-line and taking a picture?! WTF!

I seriously hope this is just the angle of the shot by the passenger or someone behind the front seat.

Reminds me of the tractor trailer rig that put me into the grass median at 70 MPH while heading through Missouri a few years ago.

My wife was not happy to see the tractor's rear wheels about 18" outside her window.

I wasn't thrilled to run for about a 1/4 mile or so with both left tires in the grass.

You all are way too serious... He could be sitting still or just starting to pull up to the traffic. You really can read too much into the photo...

How about he gets the benefit of the doubt?
