Pictures of a criminal act - truck driver case 1

It's bad enough that drivers of semi-trailers and road trains tailgate at will on freeways and the open road when a car driver doesn't do what he is supposed to do.
But you'd think you could be spared early Sunday morning on a normal suburban road. No way. It's get out of the way or suffer the consequences.

This morning at 7.40 am while travelling at the speed limit on a two-lane suburban road (I was on my way to Mass). I found myself being tailgated by a monstrous Linfox truck. Can you believe it? Sunday morning!
I could not move over because there was a car beside me also travelling at the speed limit. The tailgating forced me above the speed limit, which was still not good enough for the Linfox truck.
Eventually he switched to the inside and then came in on me forcing me to brake to avoid being crushed or possibly snookered into the on-coming traffic. I grabbed my mobile and snapped the unclear photos below.
In the first picture you can see clearly that the truck has come in on me.

The two following photos were to get some identification, but alas the shock of the action had me rattled, which resulted in all three pics being unclear. They should be clear enough, though, for Linfox to know
who the driver is. I will be in contact with Linfox to ask them how they view this sort of behaviour. Do they instruct their drivers to clear the way no matter what in order to reach a deadline on a Sunday morning?
These people have no conscience.
