Inspired by the aerial refueling techniques used in military aviation, a trucking company has unveiled a bold new innovation – highway-speed fuel-ups. The concept allows tanker trucks to refuel other trucks while both vehicles remain in motion, promising to eliminate costly downtime at fuel stations.
While the idea sounded revolutionary on paper, early tests have been anything but smooth.
One trucker, misunderstanding the concept, attempted to refuel at a regular gas station without stopping. The result was a “record-breaking” gas spill, described by local authorities as “the worst game of Slip’ N Slide ever attempted on an interstate.”
Another driver, relying on what he called “just pure instinct,” accidentally received jet fuel instead of diesel. He briefly reached a top speed of 120 mph before realizing something was wrong when he began overtaking sports cars with ease. Witnesses claim his truck “nearly took flight,” leaving behind a vapor trail usually reserved for fighter jets.
Safety experts have voiced their concerns, citing potential risks ranging from mid-air fuel explosions to the possibility of tanker trucks mistaking one another for a refueling target, leading to what one analyst called “a truly unfortunate high-speed embrace.”
Despite the widespread skepticism, the company behind the idea remains confident. “This is the future of trucking,” a spokesperson declared while standing next to a prototype hose system that had, moments earlier, latched onto an unsuspecting family minivan.
Truckers, however, are less convinced. “Honestly, I’d just be happy with lower fuel prices,” one driver said, watching a mid-air refueling attempt go horribly wrong in the background.
