Description of the problem	Sudden intense intense smoke from tailpipe at time of exhaust cleaning from my 2008 ford f250 diesel pickup (ford considers normal operation of system) while entering a toll plaza created a sudden and unsafe condition for other drivers behind me. The smoke was so heavy i could not see vehicle behind while passing through a toll plaza. The lane i was in utilizes a transponder to collect toll while traffic in that lane normally does not stop. If a vehicle had been stopped the drivers behind me would not have been able to react in time. It was also possible that their visibility of the structures of the toll plaza itself were sufficiently diminished that a collision with the structure was possible. I pass through three toll plazas each way, to and from work, 5 days a week.
