    Duel

    Amazon.com
    This is the TV movie that put Steven Spielberg on the map, shortly before he made The Sugarland Express. Working from a script by Richard Matheson, the film stars Dennis Weaver as a mild-mannered traveling salesman who unintentionally angers the driver of a semi truck. Suddenly, the truck is not only riding his tail but trying to run him off the road. No matter what he does (pulling over, stopping at a diner, calling the cops), he can't get rid of it. Spielberg makes the wise decision of never showing the driver, even as he cranks the voltage on the film's suspense elements. As a result, the truck itself takes on an air of satanic menace--even a personality of sorts--as it seems to hunt its human prey. Spielberg made a lot out of a little, suggesting just how skilled a storyteller he would become. --Marshall Fine

    There is a newer movie that is similar, there is a car with three teenagers in it one girl and two boys I think it is and one boy uses the cb radio to make prank calls, and to one trucker he pretends to be a woman called Candy Cane, and the trucker realizes it's a fake and follows them and tries to kill them but I can't remember the name.
