Looks like a grant truck . I'm not sure what's going on over there but last few years the level of safety has dropped big time ... They have guys trying to drive a 135k plus train like a sports car least in the north bay liskeard area

GPSMAN - The guy was 62 years old... Just cause someone crashed doesn't mean they are a Rookie lol... Judging by his age I would say he has probably been driving for a while (I highly doubt he is a newly minted 62 year old trucker, but you never know I guess)... Who knows he could have a 30+ yr of driving truck and this be his first accident...
Magoo - Driving in the City I see way to many so called "Professional" drivers operating like idiots... Weaving in and out of traffic, speeding way over the limit, tailgating way to close as high speeds, being impatient when truck in middle lane is passing another truck (giving space before coming back over) and decided to pass not the right (not leaving safe space for the truck in middle lane) and then look at you as they pass like your an a-hole for holding him up in the middle lane.... The list goes on and on.... It's crazy and getting worst... This includes the worst culprits which I would say is the dump trucks, they are some of the most unsafe and rudest of them all..
