    WTF, can someone explain the OP video to me. The Trucks make a U-Turn on what looks like a divided freeway, and then travel down the shoulder going the wrong way?? When the first truck did it I thought the guy was trying to commit suicide or something, but then more trucks kept doing it. Is there a big sign for the 4 wheels further up the road the says, "Watch for Big Rigs with Dumb ### Drivers Making U-Turns and Travel Wrong Way on Motorway Ahead?" Maybe someone is just really good at photo shopping or that is a toy truck track?? Remind me not to drive in Europe, man those Russian Drivers are bad, but is all of Europe Like this?

    Believe it or not, I have had to do some of those things (Had to do it in Houston). In the OSOW world, it's called a 'wrong way'. The way we've done it was usually involving a right turn on a divided highway. Ur wagon is so big that you have to make your right turn into oncoming traffic OR a bridge on one side of the road is higher, so you 'wrong way' it.

    Here's another screwup, and kinda reminiscent of the video that Hammer166 posted.

    The tunnel vision just astounds me. Instead of rebooting, they just keep tearing stuff up until they make through. This latest one^ , he could have reversed and reset with no damage, yet insisted on digging a deeper hole.
