Before I bought my SN this was what I was considering. I live right near a major interstate and I often thought of walking along the highway at night and placing myself in the path of a semi truck. I think it would be rather quick and painless if done correctly. The timing would have would have to be spot on or you may end up just severely injured which I wouldn't want. Plus the psychological impact it would have on the driver. What are your all's thoughts?

Violence and gore have never appealed to me. It's a violent way to go, completely unreliable, involves traumatizing another, as you said, and has a potential gory outcome. Nope, there are better ways. I want to go out in a way that emulates what I would have liked my life to be - peaceful.

Think about the person driving the semi. Not cool to traumatize or hurt him/her. YOu may also cause further accidents and more harm to other people.
I am not keen on subjecting some random person to a possible lasting issue that may cause them to have mental health issues all because I have a breakdown and want to exit.
It's one thing to discover a loved one's body; it's quite another for a driver to have to live with the knowledge that a vehicle they were commanding was used as an exit strategy.

I just can't do anything like that because it would be so unfair to traumatize the driver.

Traumatizing a random person is definitely not the move. I know it's not always possible however, when searching for your end, it shouldn't be the end of another's. I know I've wanted to end it badly in the past but I'd never want to hurt another whether it's physically or mentally doing so):

In 2015 I was standing on an overpass but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
I didn't want to land on a car.

It won't even traumatise just the driver, but also potentially anyone else (esp kids) who happens to be passing by. Plus emergency services having to scrape off what's left etc. Legal hassles for the driver. All this combined with the huge potential for failure and/or getting saved, definitely not worth at all imo.

I saw a story about somebody who jumped from an overpass onto the highway and ended up killing the driver of the car but survived themselves. I'm sure you wouldn't want that to happen.

To me that sounds like a horrible way to go, and I would never have the courage for something like that anyway. I would be scared of it going wrong. However if someone is traumatised by a persons suicide it is the fault of the society for denying the option of euthanasia. A peaceful exit should be a human right.

never seriously considered going out in such a manner just because the odds you'd only get hurt and not die are too high. that shit could easily crush your legs or parts of your chest and not even kill you, and now you're just fucked up.

Yes actually, but I definitely don't have the courage. But it has crossed my mind at times. I just would feel bad about causing all the shock and stuff for the driver or other people on the road.

Well, triggered I am.
As the wife of a truck driver, and as a wife of a truck driver that lived for over 7 years in a semi truck, over the road, 16 hours a day, six to seven days a week, I have had enough trauma in my life and would not have needed to experience that, and with my husband still on the road, why should he have to experience that, and further, I really do not need to get a knock on the door from the po po telling me my hubby is dead or severely injured in the hospital, which would place me out on the street with my two cats and all our belongings, because, if he is in the hospital, or dead, he is not working and his work will no longer pay for our hotel room, so really, it would still traumatize both of us and both our cats.
I will try to not yell and type in all caps like I did to the jerk who wanted to steal a sick dogs medication.
Read the PPeH, you do not need to buy drugs, or gasses, or steal people or animals meds, jump in front of cars or trains or semi's, off bridges or buildings.
You do not need to traumatize unwitting people and create victims the way you were created as victim.
For less than 10 bucks you can acquire all you need, go off into the wilderness where you will not be traumatizing hotel/motel/apartment staff, or anyone else, you only need to assure that you will have about an hour, really 20 minutes will do, but I like to take my time.
Find the way that does as little damage as possible on your way out, without destroying others lives that do not deserve it. Cause, frankly, I have had enough shit in my life, that is why I have attempted 5 times and why I am here now and soon to be gone, I do not need anything else, so just stop even thinking of doing that shit.
unless that is your aim, your goal, to traumatize others as you exit. If that is your goal, there is a reason, I am sure, aim that reason at those who deserve it, not at the innocent drivers and their wives, children and pets that rely on them.

Yes I decided I wouldn't be capable of doing it for the reasons you mentioned. I was just looking to see if anyone else has similar ideas. My intention was not to trigger you.
I agree it should be a human right to be allowed to go too. Why is this such a difficult thing thing to do when thd suffering is so painful?
I thought the same one night when I was desperate so I walked along duel carriageway and each truck that came I tried
To but I kept looking at drivers faces and couldn't do it would need to be off a high place where nobody else is affected...
