it pays to have a sunroof lol
lol thats mad i wonder what happened
WTF
scary stuff
how the hell
Wasn't this on the news recently, apparently the driver didn't see the car
thats mad
fecking hell
its completely feasible. and unlike the youtube comments by a group of people who know about digital images but don't know about blindspots on lorries.
whats happened is the car has tried to nip in & undertake the lorry, but completely misjudged it, and been gently spun round. causing minimal damage to both vehicles, apart from a little flat spotting of the tyres.
how do I know this?????
because our old scania 143 did exactly the same outside kings cross station one afternoon with an illegal minicab who tried to undercut him at the traffic lights. he was shoved 400yards up the road & a friendly copper flagged him down. he had no idea it was there, the peugeot 405 was hidden in his blindspot
Surely he should feel something if that's real! lol
the noise the tyres must be making aswell. i love how the filming car doesnt try to tell him and just takes there junction off lmao
the man is draggin 44 tons up the road, an extra ton on wet tarmac wouldn't seem any differentQuote:

tbh i cant believe some of the driving i see on motorways/dual carriageways, what posses' people to think 'playing' with a 44t wagon doing 55mph is clever is beyond me
lmfao funny stuff, i was just woundering why you wouldnt see it etc but now mowgli has explained i can see why, its not exactly easy to see right infront of you in a truck.
Fair. I just thought a bump would have been felt but given wet conditions and a light tap to the Clio then I guess not.
Still though, I would be alongside (a safe distance away) and getting the artic drivers attention, I would like to see the car drivers face! (or seat) lol
thats mental, I am sure the driver of the car is trying his brakes now and again too. NEVER gonna help....................especially going sideways
Why's he hogging the outside lane?
its the A1 and some prat with a camera is in the slow lane as a guessQuote:

must be true lol
funny stuff to watch but not very funny for the people in the clio
it must be true, as its in the papers...... even the speed of the lorry is wrong.... it was doing 56mph.....as his speed limiter won't allow any more, which is measured using a very simple calibrated speedometer that is accurate.Quote:

watchin the footage again...
this is a question for your mowgli, the trucks front lights are on, surely from the cab you would notice that their wasnt any light? obviously from the cab where their aint a car infront of you, you can see the lights clearly?
something that made me think....
IT ISN'T REALLY DARK, just a bit rainyQuote:

i had a car smash into me at about 40mph, i was doing 20ish at the time, did not even notice, i drove off
You're big enough not to notice that thoughQuote:
