Please, please don't draft!
I can't tell you how many hypermiling stories imply that "all hypermilers draft 18-wheelers and roll thru intersections" :mad Of course it's seldom practiced, but the media enjoys spreading this misinformation. The effect is the general public is turned off by hypermiling, even when most techniques are nothing like this.
Aside from obvious safety issues, you are likely not to see an exit until it's too late. Most truckers know when they are being drafted and will shake you off. And this is outside of the city - the only place you can get an opportunity to do this.
