Report
Whoever drives the van with plate #14444 needs a talking too, rode my bumper in a 70mph zone while i was doing 80-85 with no opportunity to switch lanes. Then when i get over while at 85 he passes me like its nothing. I guess i know why his van is all taped up now. As a construction worker around the MKE area this kind of driving doesnt last long without either hurting himself, someone else, or the company.
