Is it the magnitudes more though rather than 8x or 2x? I've seen it often said that a fully loaded truck is equivalent to 1,000 cars wrt road wear. Even accounting for tyre numbers and thickness/sizes, it doesn't add up. > Considering that the truck has eight axles and the sedan has two, the relative damage caused by the entire semitruck would be 625 x (8/2) -- 2,500 times that of the sedan. https://www.insidescience.org/news/how-much-damage-do-heavy-trucks-do-our-roads https://www.insidescience.org/news/how-much-damage-do-heavy-...
