I think that the truck was pulling in a driveway... as someone who has driven a large truck. It can sometimes take a minute to get lined up and pull in. Quite frankly, there isn't a "time limit" as to how long I'm allowed to take to pull in. I can drift it in at high speed or I can come to a complete stop, signal and idle it in if I want. The people coming down the road behind me should be operating their vehicles in such a way to be able to deal with it. I'm frankly not sure why a truck driver doesn't have a right to back into a driveway to make a delivery...
