One time while riding up the coast on Northern California's Highway 1, 
a friend and I had a similar experience following a fuel tanker 18 
wheeler. It actually scared me how fast this tanker was going knowing 
what the consequences were if he crashed, even if it were empty. But 
like you, I was impressed he could go that fast and keep everything in 
his lane.
