Has anyone else noticed how close trucks drive together on the Motorway, to take advantage of the slipstream I imagine. Those following would never stop if the front truck were to have to brake, the police, when you see them on the Motorway, seem to ignore this dangerous practice.

I really hate it when they get so close to my car because if I were to break, the great big juggernaut wouldn't have a chance to stop in time. Having said that, there are many cars who are guilty of tailgating. In fact, when my baby was 7 mths old, traffic ahead suddenly breaked coming off a motorway, we heavily breaked in time because we had left a big enough gap for eventualities like this, but the car behind us crashed into the back of us and the car behind him crashed into the back of him! My baby was strapped to the back seat of the car in her carseat and luckily, was fine. The chap had the cheek to have a go at us for breaking suddenly and insisted it was our fault for breaking!
There are a lot of cars who drive to close, but if a truck pulls out you brake and this can cause a concertina effect down the Motorway.
Like scrum, who does not realise most men think they are wonderful drivers, but if she stopped in time and the driver behind was too close and went into the back of her car, it is his fault wonderful driver on not.
