Learn yourself about stopping distance. The difference between the two,
the truck vs. the car, should be more than enough to satisfy this issue
that "doesn't make sense" to you.



I agree mostly here. But with a tounge-in-cheek comment.

Can a big-truck stop faster than a four wheeler when they a

a. Higher off the ground and can see farther ahead
b. Logged more miles than 99% of all 4 wheelers (experience)
c. Less likely to be applying make-up, chatting on the phone, while beating
the kid in the back seat, and reading the paper.

All while the person in the SUV is trying their damndest to jerk this top
heavy vehicle around a big-truck going 20MPH slower while getting it on damn
near two wheels.

I'm no Billy Big-Rigger, But I've been on the road long enough to see first
hand, understand, and respect the needs of truckers.

"100% of everything we touch has come to us at some time on a freight
hauler." I've never seen this printed on the back of a trailer, someone
should!
