    I wonder if this driver was wearing white socks and Adidas Flip Flops.

    He obviously neglected to wear his tin foil hat. That would have protected him from the stupid rays coming from the GPS!

    Good thing he stayed on the throttle or he would have gotten stuck on some of that stuff. Made it through!

    The Smithsonian had a "transportation" exhibit a few years ago that included hundreds of vintage pics of crashed trucks of every description, involved in crashes of every description.

    Trains (and streetcars) seemed to have established themselves as among the favorite targets of truckers, circa 1914.

    Oh yes, this one. I figure they could have laid some more charges on him.

    This guy, the USA guy doing the U Turn, the dude who parked in the park in Milwaukee and the one stuck in the tunnel are in a very select club of people who are just too stupid to be functioning members of society.

    You can come up with all kinds of reasons/excuses for them getting into a bad situation but I doubt many can begin to fathom how they chose to deal with their predicaments.

    Had to look up the Milwaukee park one.
    Didn't seem to go as viral as the USA truck u-turn guy.

    It was quite amazing he didn't smash up anything else during his trip along the bicycle path!!
