Short answer, if the trailer is wider than the truck, and they moved over to the center of their lane -vs- riding the line, depending on the width, it might throw their trailer tires off the road. I don't know about you, but trying to keep control of a tow vehicle, and the trailer, when the trailer tires are running off the road, isn't something I enjoy doing. It doesn't take much for the trailer to take control and make you go where it wants you to go, regardless of what you do.
Yes it might be a PITA to slow down, and put your outer tires a little off the road, but I'd rather to that than meet that same truck and trailer with the trailer bouncing back and forth, jerking the tow vehicle around, and chance having the whole rig jump the line, because the driver completely lost control because he wasn't 'riding the line'.
That being said, if it's a normal, wide lane, and not a narrow, country road, there is absolutely no excuse.
