Being a member of the trucker convoy currently circling the D.C. Beltway is for the birds literally.

Thats because many of the vehicles sharing the freeway with the so-called Peoples Convoy protesters are showing disdain for the groups willingness to tie up traffic over vaccine mandates that are either already gone or phasing out by flipping the bird at the participating trucks.

The Daily Beasts Zachary Petrizzo interviewed one trucker who wasnt thrilled by the reactions of other drivers.

We go around the Beltway, birds are flying. Birds are flying everywhere. Thats the kind of people that live up there, the unidentified protester said.

And, yes, theres video.

The driver told Petrizzo that his group is trying to straighten [Washington, D.C.] out, were trying to clean it up, thats what this is all about, trying to get it cleaned up.

However, RawStory wrote that the groups demands are unclear since the Supreme Court struck down President Joe Biden s vaccine mandate, and indoor mask requirements throughout the United States have been completely lifted in recent weeks.

Many Twitter users had theories about why Washington drivers are flipping over the convoy.
