As I was riding in the bike lane and huge truck (the one that later 
used the bike lane to swing wide at the I15 on-ramp) roared past me 
on the right in the right turn lane then activated his "jake brake " 
to slow down for the right turn.  That'll get your attention!!!

Riding in this area of heavy traffic and high speed is not for the 
faint of heart.
