I remember a convoy sign they hung on them something like "Stay back 100
meters", and initially, yes.. it was ignored.. since all convoys have
similar signs... although it usually just says 'convoy ahead'. But
honestly, the tanks don't spend a lot of time on the actual roads, so it was
never a huge issue.

No, I think when the front end of thier cars melt would be sufficent
warning.

I heard when the M1 was first introduced in Germany, drivers quickly learned
to keep back from convoys on the AutoBahn.
