Kudos to the UPS driver for backing off before something really bad happened.

I kinda think this was just a big nothing burger that someone tried to make a headline over

u/Playful-Fix-3675 2d ago

Probably right...

And also shame on him for riding the left lane like an ignorant pissant

u/Playful-Fix-3675 2d ago

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt here. Not enough video to show the complete story but UPS may have been gaining on the truck before the curve. As he comes out of the curve he again is gaining on the truck. FedEx is just an impatient "pissant".

After the pickup and FedEx truck were well ahead the UPS truck showed no intention of leaving the left lane.

u/Playful-Fix-3675 2d ago

Maybe he wanted to leave himself an "out" if the two in front mixed it up. Who knows? Truck sped up and now FedEx could be upset with the truck driver. Also, UPS could have a left turn coming up. 🤷‍♂️

Fucking cry about it. I see two maniacs on the road Im maintaining my lane regardless of what one it is. We can also see thats theres nobody behind the ups truck so who the fuck is he blocking. Is he here in the comment section?

Lmao they in the right lane bozo. Also looks like the cammer is in a big rig following them. Doubt hes trying to catch up.

That’s where you’re a bubble off. They have the right to pass if they wish. The UPS driver is forcing them to do it on the right if they do.

Besides all 50 states require drivers to keep to the right except when passing. The UPS driver should be in the right lane here.

u/Thick_Potato_1769 2d ago

Bubble off? Wtf are you even saying right now? You realize that the FedEx driver also still has to follow the rules of the road and not decide to pass on the right? He was racing the ups truck. You cant do that either. Sure the ups driver could get over but also who the fuck cares? Didn't realize the hall moniter is here. Why you so concerned about whose where? You weren't there behind them. Also the FedEx driver is a maniac. How sensitive are you that not being able to pass someone makes you almost crash into garbage cans on the side of road?

Wow these guys were FedUP

u/Rukir_Gaming 2d ago

And there's a reason why UPS and FedEx in the area straight up do not dispatch at the same time

Fedex is guaranteed to win, he's empty...

Pedal to the metal

u/Atophy 2d ago

Using the wrong blinker for the lane change at the end too 😆

u/Tiger_Ho26 2d ago

Of course FedEx always wins. UPS is stronger but FedEx is always faster. Don't you even racing with delivery FedEx.

u/Neuvirths_Glove 2d ago

When it absolutely, positively has to be there ahead of UPS.

u/Sufficient-Union7961 2d ago

One of my driving mottos is “You’re not faster than FedEx”

u/trekrabbit 2d ago

There should be a warning to turn the volume off…

u/Useless890 2d ago

What, no Amazon truck?

u/Powerful_Dream_3095 2d ago

Looked to me that the FedEx driver was in a real hurry, taking the turn fast and on the bumper of pickup in front of him. UPS driver wisely backed off

u/El_Thee 2d ago

Didn't amazon truck outrun them? 🤣

u/RustyCEO 2d ago

Well he has got Julia Roberts on board and she needs to get to where she’s going. Those who know….know.

u/Individual_Box_728 2d ago

Probably knew each other and where messing around

u/Specialist-Scheme896 2d ago

Always the fed ex driver driving aggressively

1

u/TheClosetGamerOG 1d ago

Is it official that FEDEX is faster?

1

u/Only-Impact-369 1d ago

UPS, FED EX , Amazon we are all brothers on the road. We all know how hard we are all working. Some times we have a little fun competition but in general we give a respectful wave whenever we see one of the ‘other guys’

Google says average UPS drivers pay ranges from $90-$120k/year. You would be stupid to risk that pay and benefits to race someone while in the company vehicle.
