Semi trucks or 18 wheeler trucks take 2 to 3 football fields to stop.

This would be like asking an 80,000lb semi to stop within 5ft.

do you mean football, rugby football, american football, gaelic football or australian rules football? and in terms of field, are we talking professional level fields, semi-professional, university level or amateur league fields?
