    A few years ago in Montreal I watched the truck in front of me cut a corner close the dummy standing on the corner watched the trailer go by less than a foot from his face and darn near over his shoes and he didn't step back .. Wide is better in most situations you reduce your chances of hitting something or someone

    I like waiting on the street for the guy leaving the truck stop entrance taking up 2/3 of the entrance because they have no clue of how much room they should need to make the turn. It isn't that hard to look in a mirror and watch what happens. The more people avoid things the less they learn.
