I told ya

That's an expensive recovery bill! Jon

I was about to say the sideways excavator won the thread today. But the truck in the lake is equally impressive!

The THP just posted this on FB....Like they say these days, you can't make this stuff up.

And highway control caught that: not just any city cop caught it moving up a block in the subdivision at walking pace...

Indeed, you cant make that up

For the truck in the lake - with that much guardrail down, it looks like he he hit it hard, sideways, broadside, maybe after spinning the whole rig 180 degrees. Glare ice?

Who known maybe two idiots was coming towards him side by side trying to pass each other and he had to go off the road to avoid a head on collision or he his the idiots who can't dive. There was a snow storm that day but since they spend the whole summer in the ditch left and right that doesn't means anything anymore a lot of it is stupidity. Its a white truck so the likelihood of me knowing his nationality is pretty high (I will keep that for myself) and that's all I need to know. They get their license in cereal box, they have bold tires and they drive above their capabilities so its a bad combo, this is a daily occurrence for use, if I would post every single one I would flood this thread.

One never knows. But taking this tangent and running with it, this is one thing I wish we tested for, how drivers react to adverse conditions. It's something they're really testing AI and FSD for quite heavily, scenarios in which wasting one person might save the car from the alternative of killing many.

Personally, put me in a semi truck and then have someone come at me in the wrong lane, and I'll take the head-on collision ten times out of ten, versus driving the rig off the road. Classic physics 101, inelastic collision, momentum holds, and the semi truck wins.

There's no saying this has anything to do with what happened, it's just an interesting thought exercise. What comes to mind is me reminding my wife each time she drives the pickup truck, "don't flip the damn thing trying to avoid a deer, just slow down as much as you can before running it over."

Similarly, in HS driver training long ago it was emphasized to plow into anything smaller on the road instead of swerving into the ditch. This was before seatbelts.

yes 100% but as you probably know sometime it's a reflex, you know what you should do but yet the lizard brain take over...

You mean a Hungarian ? Oh wait, their trucks dont cross the Atlantic
