Not necessarily... if the semi was parked on the shoulder and had insufficient reflectors on the back he might have only need to be going 40 or 50 mph the get jammed up under a stationary trailer like that.

Plus: whe are the authorities demand (in US and in EU) that the trucks bumper height is the same as for the cars? All the safety improvements of the cars are worth nothing when they go under. Thre should be a maximimu distence forom bumper to ground for all wehicles (cars, trucks, trailer ...) set at height that a normal car cant go under ...
