Buzzed by a Truck at Sunrise

8 Oct, 2017 - 8 years ago - on Farm-to-Market Road 2104

It was around 8am on Sunday, Oct 8, 2017.  I was heading southwest on TX 153, approaching US Hwy 71.  The road at this point was widening, with introduction of median and multiple lanes as I approached the highway intersection and overpass.  This truck had room to cross the yellow into the median, and had no reason to buzz me.  Purely a punishment pass.  After posting on social media, a friend identified the trucking company.  I contacted them, and a safety officer interviewed me and said he would use the video and info to help reduce this type of unsafe behavior.  I hope he did!.
