id agree with that. semi drivers are probably much better drivers than cagers. however there are 2 things that i dont like about being around semis, other than the wind... 1 is stopping distance. i dont like to have a semi somewhat close behind me. what if i have to stop very quickly? a 400lb motorcycle is going to stop a LOT quicker than an 60,000lb semi truck. 2 is blown tires. youve seen the retreads lying on the side of the freeway... they are bad enough if they are in your lane. imagine them exploding at 65 mph right next to you. not cool.
