It’s actually a very sad story. Long-distance trucks usually have drivers who take turns driving without changing the vehicle; they keep driving non-stop. There is a bed behind the seats, and in some cases both spouses are on board, eating there as well.
This kind of large truck is something I’ve seen for the first time; I’ve driven tank trucks a few times before. Truck drivers really have a tough job
The driver of the vehicle that transported the equipment once was indeed as hardworking as what the poster described
Driving while fatigued is a common occurrence. . . In just a few years, there have been repeated reports of heavy trucks parked illegally and violating regulations; according to the truck drivers themselves, each of them has their own set of difficulties.
So, road rage should also be quite common.
In fact, few long-distance bus drivers are road rage-prone; they pay great attention to driving safety.
I don’t think so. In a bus with a high cab, even in a collision with a car, the bus driver is usually unharmed, while everyone in the car is almost always killed. Additionally, in the case of trucks, as long as the front part of the vehicle passes by, the rest of the body is generally not much of a concern ; It has a heavy weight, consumes fuel during starting and braking, and hardly brakes at all.
It’s not that once the front of the truck is passed, it doesn’t matter anymore; rather, it’s simply impossible to see it (what’s commonly referred to as a driving blind spot). Additionally, trucks accelerate very slowly while driving – for example, it might only take a few seconds for a car to go from 0 to 60 mph, whereas a truck may take minutes or even tens of minutes (depending on the weight of the cargo and road conditions). Therefore, when encountering a truck on the road, we should stay as far away from it as possible. As you said, if a car hits such a truck, it’s likely to be destroyed; so why risk wasting those few seconds by trying to compete with them? In one word: Drive safely and return home safely
