This was at the intersection of 49 & Indiana Toll Road in Chesterton, Indiana... I'm guessing the red truck realized he needed to get over 2 lanes to enter the tollway and didn't see the container truck? Couldn't get a picture of the front side...
What happened?

I would say it is more likely the red truck felt he could muscle his way in and block the container truck. Road aggression?

Probably not much damage-
They shoulda moved the trucks by the Toll Booth somewhere to Not invite ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!
When the Cops show up- It all becomes a "he said she said" and someones getting a ticket (or both) to pay.
Move that mess somewhere quiet- Exchange info- And Get going.Rideandrepair, D.Tibbitt, Phantom Trucker and 2 others Thank this. -

GK Express is out of Selma,California. Their driver OOS rate is above the threshold,and after this accident it isn’t going to get any lower.
