how do those anti-static straps on trucks work??

Do you think they will eliminate the static shock you get during the winter from most cars?

Don't think so. Pretty sure that is from you (as opposed to the car) building up static electricity. As you get out of the car you touch the car chassis which is at a much lower potential, and you get shocked. Having something that electrically binds the car chassis to the ground won't change anything in that scenario.

Basically the same thing as rubbing your feet on a carpet and then touching something metal in a house like a pipe.
