    Or. Maybe that road led to the edge of the earth and he figured out he missed the last exit, and he wasn't ready to check out yet? I'm trying to give the driver the benefit of the doubt as to why this seemed to be only available option in their mind.

    Attaboy Swifty, keep bringing down the industry one douche-bag at a time..Unfortunately Swift will benefit from this.... After this guy is fired they will cycle the next douche-bag with a heart beat and collect more government "training money." What a joke!

    Maybe there was some sort of freak, temporary ice patch there and that's how he landed?

    I'd love to do the safety review of that one. I'd end up losing my job, too after going off on that individual. I can tolerate a lot but stuff like this? I have zero ability to excuse or rationalize this level of crap.

    I've smoked dope, chewed rope, danced, French romanced, screwed, farted, fought, shot the moon and drove big trucks. I've been to Janesville, Maine, Spain, Spokane, and Fort Wayne, seen three world fairs, been around the world twice, looked danger in the face, and seen goats screw in the marketplace, but I ain't never seen no crap like this

    What actually happened is a tornado picked him up and carried him there. That's how he landed. Should be logged on duty not driving for that.

    @J.S. that section of highway is one way, separated by guard rails and median from the other direction. Had he been successful in completing the maneuver, he would have ended up going against traffic. Which would have been even funnier tbh

    Good lord. I want to know what his plan was for after he got turned around. Divided highway and on a bridge to boot. This is just plain scary.
