Every now and then I get behind an 18 wheeler and the trailer isn't tracking the tractor. A couple of times like today on I40 the right rear trailer tire was almost touching the white line while the left front tractor tire was almost touching the center line. There's no way a driver isn't gonna notice a two foot or more offset. I'm curious as to why this happens and why a driver would even pull a trailer like this. It looks awfull dangerous. I followed one a few years ago up US 64 the same way. If there wasn't any oncoming traffic the tractor was running about six to twelve inches over the center line and when traffic appeared the right rear inside would be barely on the shoulder so he could get out of the other lane. If there was a sign or mailbox he rode the center line to keep from hitting them. My nerves counden't take driving a rig like that.
