I agree that heavier truck would be better but to put things in perspective which is more dangerous a light truck slightly overloaded and being driven very carsfully or the big rig cowboys that I see every time i get on Interstste. Every time I travel any distance on interstate I see heavy trucks within 6 feet (300 feet is legal requirement) of back bumper of small car/SUV/van (often full of kids) that is running speed limit or better, some of the cowboys think that everyone should make way for them like they were driving emergency vehicle. Have driven heavy trucks for 50 years and anyone that tries to say that the cowboys can stop as quick as car or out of touch. FHWA is preparing to issue new rules for brakes on heavy trucks and OEM brake suppliers are having hard time meeting specs and the new mandated stopping distances are still not near as good as car.
