the big long dump trucks with the long tongue pulling the trailers never go the speed limit here, I realize that their bosses are trying to get as much dirt or whatever hauled as possible in a days time, but my question is how do they get away with it? do they have a special law that us normal people don't?...they also hog the inside lane, and i know for a fact that our state requires other truckers to stay in the outside lane unless passing, these guys in the tandem dumps just stay out there and consistently are 15-20 miles or more over the speed limit...Are cops told to just let them do their thing and not stop them???? i am in the seattle washington area...any traffic police care to respond????

maybe i wasn't specific enough in my question,,,i generally don't have a problem with semi trucks and trailers although there are some bad apples there too, just as there are some very bad apples driving cars,,,My specific question is about tandem dump trucks operating on city streets and local highways..hope that clears it up..
