And therein lies the problem, Diesel Dave: We have the expectation that people will do the right thing. That gorilla would be dead on an LA freeway.
I think the best option really is to find a semi going the speed you want to travel (sometimes hard, because even the semis down here go 65-70 mph) and follow/draft it. Obviously, there are still dangers with drafting, but it might be safer than the alternative.
