Cops arrived on the scene and shot the truck driver 87 times, he was holding an afro pick, looked like an M16.

Truck drivers do this all the time. They just switch lanes without any care in the world. They expect you just to move out of the way for them. And most people do because who wants to get hit by a mack truck.

Fucking redneck hick

Wow. What a dumb redneck. White trash.
-
the pickup truck was clearly in the wrong. he wanted a confrontation. where did he think the truck driver was going to go? just come to a dead stop on a on ramp?
-
Not I !
Me either! :-X :-X

Truck driver was trying to merge and the dude with the camera was being an unaccommodating asshole. Sometimes you should just give right of way and not be a dick. It's like when it merges down to one lane and people don't let others over. Every other car is how it should be, like a zipper, and we'd all love a bit faster.

This!
Children/little fucks/teens/twentyyearoldassfucks are the ones who think they own the road. The asshole could have got into the left lane and let the truck in. Do you know how hard it is to drive an 18 wheeler?
What an asshole. And to you assholes who think the truck was wrong, your stupid fucks.

People think driving is a competition, they think it's a race even though everybody's going to separate places. They think if they let a truck merge ahead of them that they are one position back, that they've lost another second on the lead car (whoever the fuck that may be). That's why people will pull out in front of you even though there's no one behind you.
Next time you're on the interstate put your car in cruise control, without fail you will gradually approach a slower car, right before you rear end them go to pass, they will speed up. Or watch a car beside you get within 2 inches of the bumper of the car in front of them just to try and stay ahead of you.

The guy driving in the pickup is the one whom should lose his licence. He was filming this and was obviously looking for a chance to mess with someone. My question is, how many ramps before this had he gone by before he was able to make contact as he wanted. Some people just need to back off and reality check themselves, this was a large truck soon to run out of on ramp. It takes a while for a truck to get going yet this dumb guy with a camera was pushing it.

Black guy should have jumped out and beat his redneck ass.
Pricks like this will run into the wrong person one day...

You mean I should let the asshole that races to the front of the outside lane that he knows is going to end in front of me? Yeah right. Fuck him. Can't stand dick heads that think they more.important then anyone budding in. Itso a different story when traffic is legitimately screwed up and you can't see what's going on up front, then I'll help.out but I won't let any self serving jack ass in.

Put some people in a car and they lose their fucking minds, would you do the same thing if you were walking in the street?
Someone walks past you do you get annoyed and rush up alongside and cut back in front of them?
No, of course not, yet in a car people think its acceptable.
A guy in an 18 wheeler can pull in front of me all day long, who cares, as long as he doesn't hit me its fine, if I can do anything I can to avoid being hit then I'm doing it, who cares if you have to switch lanes FFS.
-
THE GUY FILMING IS MORE LIABLE THAN THE TRUCK DRIVER
Was he driving with due care and attention, no of course not, he could have avoided that collision, he chose not to.
-
Pickup truck guy was totally in the wrong. What an asshole.

I would love to hear him answer the question "Why didn't you just let the truck in?"

I think there's a difference in what I am describing and what you are describing. For the most part people who cut us off just made a miatake. But there's that small percentage that are asSholes and I won't oblige them. Of course playing chicken with a semi is not in the equation.

so you would rather have a collision with an asshole rather than just letting him in?

Cletus needs his ass beat trying to run a trucker off the road.

Children/little fucks/teens/twentyyearoldassfucks
Little blonde girls. Convinced the secret to a 3 lane change without looking or signaling is to do it as fast as possible. Oblivious to oblivion.

No, I don't. I hate that guy. But this was just a dude trying to get on the interstate and do his job while some twink who'd obviously been looking for a fight, decided to be an asshole and not let him over and cause an accident. Who knows what was behind the truck on the ramp. You can't just stop on an accelerating ramp, you use it to accelerate with the hopes that some selfish asshole doesn't block you from getting on. I for one would've loved for this Hebrew to go Worldstar on his ass. Would've served him right.
Like ukjeff said, I would love to hear his answer to "why didn't you just let him over?"

And the part about how he was going to ruin his job by having his license taken away.
That takes it to a whole nother level of assholeishness.
-
F'n jerkoff redneck. Dude should've merge him into the median, then kept on trucking.
-
You apply your brake slow down a few miles an hour and let the guy in. I do it all the time and usually flash my lights to let me know to go.

The pickup truck driver will be found to be liable. It's very clear in legal doctrine. He had an opportunity to avoid the accident but voluntarily contributed to it.

Yeah plus that truckers career is possibly on the line so he probably will go into court with an attorney who specializes in this type of stuff.

Doubt it. If the guy had time to film he had time to move his ass over. He instigated the incident.

This...The redneck is suppose to move or slow down when a car/truck is merging into the highway that is already ahead of you... Where the redneck fucked up was the truck was ahead of him. If the 18 wheeler would have smashed the front of his truck into the redneck, that's when the 18 wheeler would have been at fault. This dumb redneck dun goofed...
-
Yeah plus that truckers career is possibly on the line so he probably will go into court with an attorney who specializes in this type of stuff.
What will happen is a cop shows up to the accident. Cop will see what part of the vehicles hit each other. When he sees that the redneck hit the middle to back part of the 18 wheeler, he will ticket the redneck and will find him at fault. And if the cop does look at the video, the redneck may be brought up on other charges...

This!
Children/Semi-drivers/little fucks/teens/twentyyearoldassfucks are the ones who think they own the road. The asshole could have got into the left lane and let the truck in. Do you know how hard it is to drive an 18 wheeler if you don't have a brains?
What an asshole they are. And to you assholes who think the pickup truck was wrong, your stupid fucks.
#MGGA
Fixed..
Just for your information: Guy in the 18 wheeler get his job simply by going to the driving school, and learn to drive. It takes about 3-4 weeks, and he is sertificated driver for 18 wheelers. Do this 3-4 weeks make him a superhuman? If you cellphone stop working and you take it to the shop for repair, that guy who fix it has been ~3 years at the vocational school to learning his trade, so how to compare these two guys? Even an ape can learn how to drive, and guys in the traffick trade are those, which doesn't have enough brains even for the vocational schools.
Secondly, all over the world is rule that those who are coming to highway, give way for those who already are on it. Change lanes to swerve these morons is the most idiotic thing to do, because mental capacity of the average american cannot handle two simultaneous movements. They should swerve AND look at the mirror for people coming behind them, and that hey can't handle = even more serious hazard. Most common reasong for the accidents are morons who don't drive by the rules, and those idiots kill thousands per year.

watch the video he hung on the guy for about half a mile, he had time to pull over or slow down, he solicited the collision.
The guy in the 18 wheeler was trying to access the lane, a slip road is only so long, what do you want the guy in the 18 wheeler do, run out of road and drive down an embankment or slam on and stop on the slip road?
-
Pickup truck drops back in the traffic flow to let the lorry/18 wheeler on...then after the 18 wheeler is on you pass the thing...dangerous situation averted...worse case elapsed time-30 seconds.
-
Usually best to drive defensively. Not worth all the trouble. Give such professionals drivers right of way

So you are saying that everyone have a duty to jink morons who are driving the 18 wheelers, because these assclowns have no brakes, have no brain functions at all etc., and not any kind of oblications of safe driving? I am glad you explained this to me, sir.. ;D

You have a duty to look after your own safety and others whilst on the road, if some people are dicks then its up to non-dicks to compensate for that, if you don't then that makes two dicks.
Why the fuck would you not just pull over instead of letting a guy collide with your vehicle.
Fuck me do people not have lives to be getting on with, all the hassle of going through insurance to get your car fixed, chances are the other driver isn't insured so you end up getting stiffed.
Fuck me, just make life easier for yourself.
-
Redneck with the camera is an idiot. Its common courtesy to let merging traffic merge onto the highway. Either slow down or switch lanes. He was definitely in the wrong here, truck driver did nothing wrong in this case.
However, I will say this, I've been almost hit numerous times by truckers who aren't paying attention on the road, or flat out falling asleep at the wheel. There are legit problems with truckers sharing the road with regular cars, but this video just shows a trucker merging and an asshole trying to start shit.
I don't remember where I saw this, but I think its some state in the US who either have or want to have trucker-only highways which run parallel to regular highways. This is actually a great idea IMO.

As a gentlemen who's been behind the steering wheel of several 18-wheelers for many, MANY years now, this thread has provided me a breath of fresh air. So I thank you gentlemen for that. :) Now it certainly goes without saying, not ALL truck drivers are created equal. There are many out there that shouldn't be out there rolling down the roads ( *cough cough* Middle Easterners out of Canada *cough cough* ) ... HOWEVER, you will find the MAJORITY of us know what we are doing. And when things get rough out there on the road ( example : bad weather ), you'll want to be behind us. And, as long as you're not tailgating too close, we'll be glad to lead the way through the fire and into the promised land. ;)
-
I hate big trucks. Been tailgated many times.
Truck drivers should really learn to drive safe and defensively regardless of size. Don't be a bully just because you have a bigger vehicle. You are dealing on the road with real lives. Children, fathers, grand parents. Just chill and drive a little safer.

I do too but what can you do? These idiots will smash you into nothing. I just grin and bare it especially since I carry.
-
Not I !
neither do i
i am a very aggressive driver
fast, unpredictable, vindictive
when someone with a weak engine tail gates me i ruin their day you can bet on it , slow down do nearly complete stand stil, when they want to over take, keep blocking them etc etc
i do this to public buses too, it's very funny to me
as soon as someone with sub 200hp car or something tries to pressure me, i put on my aviators and bring the pain
-
While the guy in the car was mainly in the wrong, good for him!!! He was probably just frustrated about all the crappy truck drivers out there who throw around their vehicle like its nothing. I cant count how many times a truck wanted to change lanes and would not even signal. would just switch lanes. I guess they just assume they are going to let you in because they have a huge truck. Its extremely dangerous. Good for this guy!

I assumed halfway through the video it was going to end with the guy in the car either dead or seriously hurt because of his stupidity.

So because he was wronged one too many times by truckers, he needs to ruin THIS trucker's (who did nothing wrong) day and/or career by causing a collision? This guy is an idiot and I hope he got his license taken away after he pulled this shit.

Personally speaking, I ALWAYS slow up or let truck drivers go in front of me. I am not playing chicken with a 70,000 pound vehicle. My life is more important than my frustration. On the other hand, I totally understand why the driver did what he did. Past behaviors often inform present/future behavior. I bet for this guy it did.

I say leave your ego behind when behind the wheel. Especially when dealing with an 18-wheeler. So I totally agree with you on that, and I'm the same way when it comes to the road. But I still disagree that this guy should have taken his frustration out on an innocent trucker. Maybe he's THE ONE decent trucker on the road who shows his signal every time doesn't cut anyone off, and now he was punished by some redneck douchewaffle because he's sick of truckers merging onto the highway in a way he deems inappropriate (though, again, this trucker did nothing wrong).

Nice troll post.
No, I am actually not trolling at all. Truck drivers are extremely frustrating. Where I live, they are constantly cutting people off or tailgaiting. Like I said, I value my life more than my frustration. However, I totally understand why the driver did what he did, although it would not be me.

Well, that is why generalizations cause issues because you take out your anger or frustration on those who may not be doing anything wrong based on your preconceived notions. That truck driver could have been one of the good ones. Clearly, the car driver acted out of frustration and anger.

As a trucker what are your thoughts on the video clip?
That's has to be oxymoron if I have ever seen one, because truckers have no thoughts what so ever. If you connect one on the EEG, you see perfectly straight line insead of brain wave ;D
Here in Finland they start to demand mandatory vocational courses from the new truckers, and that start a great debate. The best argument I read was: "I DIDN'T CHOOSE THIS OCCUPATION BECAUSE I WANT TO WASTE TIME IN EDUCATION!".. ;D

Judging by the posts that followed after my previous post ... well, it seems that I have might have spoke to soon lol.
To answer your question, gib, I find myself utterly disgusted with the video. And annoyed as well. There would've LITERALLY ... been NO need for any sort of physical/verbal confrontation if the driver in the car would've either :
A) Slowed down a tad ( see: extending courtesy )
B) Sped up
The driver in the car clearly had negative intentions. Which is rather sad ( imo ).
I would also like to remark on another post of yours, gib, if I may. We truckers are well aware of what exists out here on the road. But perhaps you need to be reminded that we, too, are fathers, brothers, husbands, etc., etc. Believe it or not, but we do take our jobs very seriously.
Now Ropo ... what an utterly idiotic comment to make. Which says a lot about you clearly. Now I cannot comment on the truck drivers in Finland, but there are MANY truckers here in the United States that are highly educated. Myself, for one. So why did I choose truck driving, you might ask and/or might wonder ? Because I'm an introvert, who hates having a boss hover about my neck, and prefers complete and total freedom. This is why.
Take care everyone.

Why is this 3 pages? Listen, driving an 18 wheeler is difficult enough. Now you have some jack off driving a prius playing tough guy. Guy in the car should have been shot in the face.

Take care everyone.
1. Are or are not the truckers who are coming from the ramp to the highway obligated to drive safely and without bumbing other drivers? I bet they are, by the law.
2. Did the trucker do everything in his power to prevent the accident by his obligation? No, he didn't do fuck to prevent the accident.
So when trucker will wedge his car on to highway, he is trusting that everyone would give a road to him, just because he is an arrogant asshole. End of story ;D

we don't know if the trucker did anything to try and avoid the incident, because mr asshole was maintaining his speed to trap the trucker in, if the trucker had sped up or slowed down, no doubt mr dickhead in the van would have done exactly the same.

Exactly.
Ropo, you are clearly looking for an argument of some sort. It's pretty clear to anyone who possesses an IQ over 10, who's at fault here. Whatever deep seeded issues you have with truck drivers, please do not allow it to muddle your logic here in this thread. Thank you.
