You don’t know why one truck decided to pass another one. Could be a safety issue. There’s no way for you to know for sure. It’s OK though, you’ll still get to your destination within a minute of when you would have if they hadn’t chosen to overtake. And everything will be fine.
You’re grasping at straws. What safety issue would cause one truck to need to pass another? If you’re worried about something falling off the truck in front of you, the correct response is to slow down and increase your following distance, not to slowly pass the other truck while creating a massive traffic hazard.
Exactly. If I’m driving a truck and I’m worried the truck in front of me is about to explode or have a part fly off it, I’m not going to pass them at 1 mph. If I can pass faster, I’ll pass quickly. If I can’t, I’ll hit the brakes and put a huge amount of distance between us. In a safety emergency, you want to increase your separation as fast as possible. You do that by braking, not by slowly passing.

Don’t care
If it’s a “safety issue,” it’s definitely not happening at a 1 MPH speed differential. C’mon, now.
