How would you expect a truck with a cargo tank that has baffles to handle on the road?

Possible Answers:

The truck will seem heavier than it really is

Answer:
There will be less front to back surge than there is in a tanker without baffles
Explanation:
Baffled liquid tanks have bulkheads in them with holes that let the liquid flow through. The baffles help to control the forward and backward liquid surge. Side-to-side surge can still occur. This can cause a roll over.
