"Google Equivalent Single Axle Loads.
FHWA studies found that your average semi does the damage of 10,000 passenger cars. Even smaller single unit trucks are a few thousand times the damage."
Valhalla, while I'm not sure which side of the political fence you're riding from post to post (because this discussion is completely political), you are correct in the statement above that you posted.
IDK the exact or even round number, but heavy axle loads do exponentially more damage than light axle loads. No doubt, no debate.
