It IS a candidate and has, in fact, been elected. I've been drafted by smaller vehicles.
I guess the guy in front of me doesn't know the degree of caution I exercise, but he's in zero danger of getting hit. Being a math nerd, I've timed my reaction, added a safety factor, searched the maximum deceleration of a large truck and of my LR3, and run the numbers for a safe distance.
Anyway, as I said, it's quite rare that I can find a truck to draft.
