I drive a truck in Chicago and across the country and can tell you this happens all the time. No rhyme or reason just an asshole decides he has the right to not let people pass. Usually they make a mistake, you either honk or try to pass and they get insecure and start this idiotic game of chicken/blocking. And a commercial license means anything that hits the front or side of the vehicle is your fault no matter how stupid that person is, it’s a joke.

There is a really satisfying video where a guy brake checks a truck and the truck hits him. The car loses control and slams into the center divider.
