It appears to be a complete US phenomenon to me.
I have only ever heard this myth in online media, and it just seems absurd iron oxide somehow spawns Bacteria.
The problem is that even in low traffic, there is a truck on the right lane every few meters. Often, after you switch to the right lane, someone decides to drive right next to you, forcing you to brake.
It's just more comfortable to stay in the middle lane.
Now IMHO the real problem is when trucks are overtaking with 101km/h...
Wow, I was sure Raspberry Pi were pretty good about mainline support, especially since multiple distros support the platform.
Software support is still very good compared to pretty much every other arm board.
