18-wheeler road rage

 Was driving up I-57 late last night and was approaching a construction zone.  Passed an 18-wheeler about a mile before the road switched to a single lane.  This apparently pissed off the driver, who swerved into the left lane, accelerated rapidly, pulled up next to me, and almost forced me off the road as the left lane ended and he merged right (into the lane I was in).  I had to speed up quickly to avoid eating orange barrel.  The 18-wheeler also sped up and rode about an inch from the rear of my truck through the construction zone.  Unfortunately I couldn't get a plate number on this guy, and I wasn't very inclined to get anywhere near him again after the construction zone.  Anyone who thinks its okay to use an 18-wheeler as a weapon on the road doesn't need to be in the trucking business!
