Sure they understand the physics - you and your umpteen thousand pound rig can stop just as quickly as a Porsche GT3.

Don't even get me started on stupid people that don't understand what it's like to tow a trailer let alone how to drive around a towed vehicle.
 
The comment about towing.... I was a boy racer, always diving between lanes, pulling out to close etc etc, until i learned to drive a truck and trailer. not a big rig, a silverado with a horse gooseneck trailer on the back. The extra accuracy needed taught me a whole bunch about how to drive.. im still no expert, but the first step to learning is knowing you have to learn.
