Seems to me that the slower truck is really the inconsiderate one here. If you’re already slower, tap the brakes a little and let the other guy slide in.
Nope, it cascades back to all those in the same lane who’ve not yet decided on overtaking. It’s multi player game theory. Easiest way out I can think of is punishing both those too slow and too fast to create equilibrium. Haven’t thought about what this would do to other traffic going from the left lane to the outbound right via a mass of trucks in exactly the same speed.
It's like when a big co says "now we care greatly about the environment" before going on to detail their plan for something that's laughably bad for it.
They see it. They just phrased the article that way because they don't want to catch hand wringing and hate comments from every idiot who does the exact same thing in their car with slightly different values for the variables outlined and without any of the physics/economics excuses to justify it.
Edit: I hope. I can't read minds, you may very well be right and they don't see it.
