If everyone maintains speed it's actually not a big deal.

Unless they didn't maintain enough space for the big truck. Then someone has to slow down.

Or unless more than one lane is closed, or there's, you know, actual traffic. I would love to drive in a place where "you don't even take your foot off the brake" works, closures or no.
