    What a dolt. She can’t believe that a truck hauling an ag supply would be on a narrow road in farm country.

    "Why would someone be hauling hazardous stuff on such a small road?"

    Why would someone be driving 90 mph on that same road?

    Questions abound!

    Because I thought I just passed a truck normally and everything was fine. I didn’t know he went off the road. I mean, logically looking back on it, I would’ve thought he could brake. But obviously trucks can’t stop quickly, so I — it looks like it was my fault from the video,” she told police.

    WTH??
