Just watched a semi driver on Deerfoot tailgating a small car doing 110 (middle lane)....just before the 17th Ave SE construction zone...nailed the brakes, just missing three cars...I hear the old "we're professional drivers" line all the time...PD or not, there is no excuse for that kind of driving.

Did you see him gain on the small car and tailgate OR did you see a semi close to a car that came into the zone he may have left himself to stop more safely. As a commercial driver I have it happen to me every day . . . leave myself a safe stopping zone in front of me and it fills up with other vehicles that can't have another 10-20 seconds added to their daily drive.
