I saw a CR England on its roof on the left side of the runaway ramp on wb I-70 bottom of Vail. He made it about one truck length up and rolled it. Now that takes talent!

He probably looked like a ballerina inside while the truck did a pirouette.LindaPV Thanks this.
-
It took a few moments. How long is that moment? Rest of your life.
He did a good job keeping from flipping. Im concerned about how he just threw it into the chuteLindaPV Thanks this. -
News is, when he climbed out of the truck the seat cover was stuck to his rear end 'cause he was puckered up so tight..Big Don, x1Heavy, LindaPV and 1 other person Thank this.

Once he hit the pea gravel, he had no control over that truck.x1Heavy Thanks this.

That sure looks like it's one of the two ramps on the north bound side of the Grapevine. Coming north it's a 35 mph speed limit. You always see guys using brakes rather than the gears.
x1Heavy, LindaPV and 6daysontheroad Thank this. -
Good job to this driver!
Sad part?.............
It will most likely become an "Issue" ... (Just like anything else in today's society)
Instead of 'quietly' getting a wrecker out there to pull him out, Adjust his brakes,And be on his way......
This Driver now has to Deal with the Barrage of Law enforcement Showing up, The Endless "Dumb" questions the Poor driver will be asked repeatedly sitting there in his soiled pants....,,The Citation issued,, The State sponsored wrecker service to pull him out, His Company Correcting him like a misbehaving child.... And every Motorist with their "I got a camera,Time to play media"... mindset.
So Instead of thanking this guy For saving Lives.......His Confidence will just be shattered for doing the right thing.dancecanyon, Friday, Lepton1 and 2 others Thank this. -

Maybe it was this guy making another video and he was going to use the runaway ramp to get around the slow vehicles in the left lane
Socal Xpress and x1Heavy Thank this. -
You can tell how full of himself he is by his music choice
