A litlle road bump and them logs could be airborn, where no friction is applied.

Staying closer to it would be safer probably. The logs need to overcome a lot of friction to go directly back. So they’ll never hit directly behind the truck. they just roll off the side

Ok but air friction isn’t going to move that log either. It’ll continue to travel the same speed as the truck. Even if there was thick air, that bump would need to be large enough to lift an entire tree for there to be no friction from the other logs. If you’re driving on a highway with bumps large enough to launch you out of your seat, then maybe you should rethink driving all together

The part that always bugged me is they would be going the same speed and direction as the truck they were on not shooting backwards at bullet speeds.

The logs would have to get wedged in a pothole perfectly to be approaching a car that fast. Which could be the universe trying to kill you
