Exactly. I'm not "anti-truck" per se, but you have to treat it with responsibility if you're going to be on city streets. One of those times I was in a car going through the roundabout; the guy just sped through without slowing down, let alone yielding. I honked and he flipped me off.

The other time I was crossing in the crosswalk. Again, the guy didn't slow down, and I had to jump away from him. I hit the car with my hand as I did and he turned to me and rolled his eyes and just kept going without slowing down. Hard for me to wrap my head around that level of callousness when I could've been killed.
