My volvo has a loud jake brake and I kicked it on the other night going down a 7% grade and then it went right back off. It scared the hell out of me when it started roaring.

Btw I get over at the first sign of a lane closure.

I gave up being a nice guy....I just run up to the end and fake a lane change make everyone hit their brakes then move over at the last minute....someone always gives in....

Yes, work Zones are notorious for providing AMPLE opportunity for aggressive driving.
work Zone have 4 sections.
*the information area :where we can expect confused drivers, mainly slowing down. simply slow down and give way.
*the congestion area: where we can expect a lane closed, or lane departures. be careful and give way.never use your vehicle as a weapon.
*the work area: where we can expect the unexpected. best behavior is to simply slow down, pay attention and increase following distance.
*the acceleration area: where we can expect lane changes and aggressive driving.
work zones can be very dangerous for a driver record. our job is to get to the other side while protecting our drivers records.
recognizing aggressive drivers is recognizing a hazard. it is important for us to always react to a hazard the same way. we observe the hazard and prevent a hazard from becoming an emergency.

When it gets close to the barrals I then take up 2 lanes to sort of try and stop the people trying to bogart, because they are always in a hurry to go nowhere.
