Check out this video of a Humvee negotiating the streets of Iraq. If somebody goes too slow, they bump them out of the way.

FMCoug's RV made an appearance around the 1:10 mark.

I hope that's not SOP and they had an emergency they were dealing with. If I were an Iraqi, that would piss me off real quick.

From what I understand it may be SOP as they don't like to be still for very long.

I could see that. Also that it may be a standing traffic law (i.e. get out of the way when the police, fire, etc. are behind you). The way everyone got over it seemed like they knew that's what they were supposed to do and just didn't until bumped.

I'd pay a decent sum to be able to drive like that for a few days. I'd imagine it could relieve a fair amount of stress.

Move to Texas. We all drive that way here. Why do you think there is such a race to get the biggest truck?
