Another moron escapes death

What an idiot. He thinks it’s a joke....and these are the fools that we have to put up with everyday.

 

The very first load i ever booked was for pulling a brand new Timpte grain hopper from David City, NE to Fargo for the happy new owner.
I inspected the trailer, signed for it, pulled out of the yard and came to the stop light at the intersection 100 yards away. I saw a Silverado SS speeding towards the intersection, and I thought to myself,”I hope he doesn’t plan on turning right here on this slick morning...”
Yep, his turn signal came on, and the next thing I knew: his truck was underneath the trailer and topless.
Fortunately, he and his passenger were ok (it was a miracle) AND he actually had insurance. That was a relief considering that this looked to be the guy’s first winter in America.
Turns out, his insurance company paid me double the rate I was charging the trailer owner to pull the trailer to Fargo, but I only pulled it a total of 90 miles to a business that agreed to buy the trailer.
I felt bad for the owner until after I tried to explain to him that I was simply sitting behind other vehicles at a red light, and there was nothing I could have done to prevent the accident. He disagreed.

 

But yet he claims the truck merged into him. Looks like the accident has him confused.

 

The automobile driver got a slew of tickets associated with the accident. The police investigation concluded he was the cause of the entire incident.

 

at least his wheels were destroyed for the moment

 

There probably were witnesses or a dash cam to save the trucker. I had an accident last year when I had a dash cam and the other driver (cop told me he was a truck driver too) claimed that I cut him off when I merged from interstate. He did not know I had a dash cam before he called cops. Started yelling and cussing when I told him I had a dash cam.

 

Did the white SUV get a citation for this?

 

Not sure but his insurance paid for my damages.

 

Now a days Truckers need Dashcams when driving because 95% of the time 4 wheelers want to blame the Trucker. I hear it all the time and people never want to believe that the trucker is driving properly whiles 4 wheelers are racing just to get in front of the truck.
