I'm SO glad I drive in the US If I miss a turn in Hoboken or someplace like that, I don't get THIS reception! The convoy following their military escort made a wrong tun down a dead end road in Iraq. Make sure you watch it ALL the way to the end. Last edited by WiseOne; 07.25.2008 at 02.59 PM.. Reason: Fixed Video

I wonder what happened to the driver of number five when all was said and done? At the end, which member of the convoy was the cameraman speaking of? The flipped truck just ahead?

I missed this story, kinda figures for the money grubbing rat-yeahs that company is. They grab a ton of government contracts then skip town to avoid taxes... I hope that driver gets better enough to lead a semi-normal life at least. __________________ Responsibility matters... Claim yours today!

....... weekend warriors.... that was only half the TTP (tactics techniques and procedures) the other part was get the vehicles and personnel out of the kill zone hell i learned that in AIT (my school to learn how to drive the army way) and 500 rounds aint #### for an ambush. this is just one more reason i dont like the guard or reserve yes i do respect them but they dont get as much training as we do on the active side all they get is refresher courses.

And my hubby has been considering going, because it "pays so well".... ABSOLUTELY NO WAY will I agree for him to do this. I'm sitting safely, here in the comfort of my own home, and sofa....yet I felt his terror...OMG!!!! WOW!!!

I watched this, when I first signed up here (on TTR)... Admittedly, I was afraid to ask what the 'outcome' was for the Driver.
