    You'll care soon enough when you come around a corner to find some idiot flying at you doing 150 trying to pass 6 trucks in a row that were slowing them down. Its bad enough driving in BC as is. Add in slow trucks on the flatter areas of the province and you're going to see people drive even poorer.

    No I won't. It's why I have a massive moose bar.

    I’ve seen moose bumpers shoved up into a reefer before . They give a false sense of security to some drivers . They work fine against deers small moose and objects like a garbage can or road cone . But a speeding car can be a different story .

    Definitely. It can end up being one more thing coming through the windshield at you.

    How useful are they when you get backed into at the truck stop?
