Drivers need to realize no load is worth your life

Cheap_Session_9305@reddit
I wonder kind of footwear he has on.
Grand_Cookie@reddit
We had snow storm this weekend and I had a truck pass me doing around 75 in a 55 construction zone while it was actively snowing
Onlyheretostare@reddit
Let me guess, a Volvo with a cracked side mirror?
JankyMark@reddit (OP)
Smh those dudes won’t never learn
Mystery_Chaser@reddit
Horribly sad to watch. I hope the driver is OK.
Mystery_Chaser@reddit
Maybe not being in the fast lane?
Richard_Tickler69@reddit
Too*
PhillyLee3434@reddit
Super scary, legit how people get killed.
NJPokerJ@reddit
I bet it was awesome for the people behind him.
truckerscum@reddit
His flip flop got stuck on the petal!
448ChiefSqueak@reddit
Hope that person is ok
GoMake_me_a_sandwich@reddit
I love seeing crashes like this! This is the best crash. The bad driver will be off the road or at the least, a major crash will be in his driving record. And nobody else got hurt
EmotionalBar2533@reddit
...I can show you the world....
nullmem@reddit
That over correct is what ended the day
NorthDriver8927@reddit
He looked super cool for a second there though lol jk
chefsieben@reddit
Everytime we see these clips it's always the over panic trying to save it like they're in nascar
NorthDriver8927@reddit
Camels have notoriously poor cornering skills
Techwolf_Lupindo@reddit
Over at first, but the undercorrection is really the cause.
truckeredditor@reddit
He could've easily saved it instead he cranked the wheel the other way and off he went
unftp-0@reddit
Anyone else seeing that Chad of a dump truck keeping his cool just doing Peterbilt things not reacting at all
Ich_mag_Kartoffeln@reddit
Do you think he even noticed? That would require the driver to look in the mirrors.
angrydeuce@reddit
Who wants to watch a bunch of people getting their windshields obliterated by your poorly secured load anyway?
TraditionalMobile277@reddit
Ricky Bobby 😂🤣
TomAterski@reddit
If you ain’t first you’re last!! SHAKE N BAKE!!
TraditionalMobile277@reddit
That happened woooo!!!!
possibly_lost45@reddit
If this ever happens to you stay in the turn and let off the gas. It'll either correct itself or slide off the road. Do not jerk the wheel in any direction
possibly_lost45@reddit
FAFO
JColeTheWheelMan@reddit
Good riddance. I get half a boner every time one of these fucks wipes himself out.
LazarusOtter@reddit
Hear ya there, brother. Glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys watching these super truckers lose it in the snow and ice. Started driving overnights in Wisconsin, where it seems like it's state law that it can only snow between the hours of 4pm-4am.
JColeTheWheelMan@reddit
I don't like it when innocents are affected, but watching careless people get Darwin awards for their choices warms my heart.
Over_Competition_837@reddit
Too fast instead of to fast
Glittering_Map5003@reddit
Jebus hope he’s ok
Puzzleheaded-Bag-121@reddit
Truckers need to learn to slow the fuck down. I’m tired of being passed by idiots going 70 in a 55 maximum truck zone. It’s getting ridiculous.
CountryNo5975@reddit
Probably a camel driver
funkeym0nkey@reddit
Looks like rookie shit to me
Plane_Guitar_1455@reddit
Probably another illegal.
MovieResponsible2505@reddit
Maybe going 10 mph below the speed limit would have helped??
CA_Orange@reddit
No. How is a driver supposed to earn a living if they don't get there as soon as possible and try to deliver 6 hours early.
Zestyclose-Store7125@reddit
Receiving Opens in 8 hours 🙃
Own-Load-7041@reddit
Haha, so true. Then it's another 8 listening and sleeping for your number to not get called
CentralFeeder@reddit
Gotta be the first in line, with a scheduled appointment…
Questionoid@reddit
Thats for ‘em rookie boys.
Late-County-4094@reddit
Slow down when it’s slick—no load is worth your life! Seen too many folks learn the hard way, keep the rubber side down.
schiza-clausen@reddit
This is AI
SmooveKJ@reddit
How fast was he going?
Expensive_Movie3132@reddit
I saw the trailer I was like yeah he’s gonna spin
hotdog11inch@reddit
100 dollars says he had a foot up on the dash driving
National-Answer-9792@reddit
Yep
MajorHymen@reddit
Hard to say if he’d been able to save it if he didn’t over correct but that certainly didn’t help the situation
BuzzBuckley@reddit
This was in Grand rapids Mi. on the S curve...dude made me late for work. Hope everyone is okay.
Spirited_Mammoth_269@reddit
Definitely a flip flop wearing turd. He started the video in the far left lane and ended it halfway over top an overpass lol. God bless this man
Ornery_Bath_8701@reddit
Jesus
Occams_RZR900@reddit
Maybe if he let him take the wheel it woulda ended differently.
Kinsei01@reddit
Idk, I don't think Jesus has a CDL.
Critical_Opening_526@reddit
He's one of those non-English speakers y'all hate.
cheesenuggets2003@reddit
It doesn't count if Jesus can die for my sins and save me from eternal damnation.
Unfortunately for Mr. Garcia, a different carpenter got the job done first.
Occams_RZR900@reddit
He does, but it’s a Christian Devine License.
CaptainZhon@reddit
Probably has one of those “no name” CDLs
Slater_8868@reddit
I've seen where the driver writes the DOT info on the side of the door with a dry erase marker. If that's not fly-by-night, I don't know what is.
untrendahj@reddit
Where was this? Think I may have seen this I 84 CT
ThanksALotBud@reddit
Yes I84 near Hartford I believe
untrendahj@reddit
That’s the one! Yup, gotta slow down for conditions. New England was an ice hell hole yesterday.
denyskaiser@reddit
That was an easy save, these people have no business driving a big rig. If you don’t know how to correct a slight skid you need a seasonal drivers license.
Questionoid@reddit
😂😂 “Seasonal Drivers License”
chazzzzmak1972@reddit
He’s lucky he hit that pole . I think it slowed him down enough to keep him from going over the edge
CentralFeeder@reddit
99 times out of 100, driving too fast for road conditions is the cause, a lesson a lot of drivers will never learn.
JankyMark@reddit (OP)
Yeah they gonna find out Mother Nature is undefeated
CentralFeeder@reddit
Truth!
crudeshag@reddit
LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE DIDNT READ THE CDL MANUAL BECAUSE ITS IN AMERICAN, NEED AMERICAN TEST ASAP< THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
No_Inflation7432@reddit
Knowing what an incredible amount of horsepower that cascadia has.... And watching him accelerate coming out of a turn which appears to be on an upgrade, one would be within the range of probability in surmising that he is empty. So...too fast and bad weather....and empty. 🥴🫏💩
noamgboi1@reddit
He wasn’t going too fast, the ice was icing too fast.
YuppieTrucker@reddit
What speed did you clock him at officer?
OldRedditorEditor@reddit
Been noticing that a lot of driver operating trucks (box trucks and bigger) are now driving like they’re in their personal vehicles.
JankyMark@reddit (OP)
That’s because they shouldn’t be operating these vehicles at all
barre9388@reddit
I never understand 18-wheelers going over the speed limit period. Especially near curves. I see it every day
Cadillacwalt@reddit
Icy conditions and speeding on a curved bridge in the left lane. Priceless!
PumpkinSpiceLatte-@reddit
Also looks like one of his headlights is out…
Raeezordazetoo@reddit
And on a bridge/overpass too.
Unopuro2conSal@reddit
My guess is that he hit black ice and tried to steer his way out of it , when that happens to you let off the accelerator and feel when you get traction and pull yourself straight don’t try to steer yourself out of it
GlomBastic@reddit
You can see the moment they give the hammer while approaching an iced bridge. Not the best choice.
InvestigatorBroad114@reddit
1 headlight automatic Cascadia 10/10 performance
No_Teaching_8273@reddit
That turn with good weather is horrible there's a reason it's 50 mph there
InsaneAdam@reddit
What do you expect out of a 1 headlight cascadia?
AspNSpanner@reddit
At least he’s closer to his destination than if he crashed at a slower speed. There is that.
Juan_Rempel@reddit
Bridge my ice, I guess physics wins again
B_O_A_H@reddit
Cascadia 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Fun_Shape_7619@reddit
ah life in the fast lane don henley comes to mind 🎶🎶💥💥
