This is REALLY BAD advice

Submitted by Robert on April 14, 2008 - 14:54.

What are recommending it extremely bad advice. The safety hazard is not nearly worth saving a few bucks on gas.

My older brother who has been driving 18-wheelers across the United States and locally for 10-15 years has always told me to stay as far away from trucks as possible! After witnessing fatal accidents caused by trucks, a tire blow out (not on his truck luckily) landing through the windshield of a Jeep Grand Cherokee (was fatal), and numerous other bad truck accidents, he always tells everyone to say the h#ll away from them--only bad things can happen.
