Citizens on site should have handed out some swift justice, right there, on the spot. Anybody that stupid doesn't need to be taking up space on earth. Unfortunately it has become very common. There ought to be a way for their numbers to be immediately revoked on the spot just because of the complete irresponsibility of the accident.

You know it’s the GPS fault. That make a u turn ####. Countless manufacturers have been sued to add warning labels on #### that should be self explanatory. When I worked for John Deere regardless of tractor age we had to make sure every piece of equipment we serviced had a cover on the solenoid to prevent crossing it over to get it to start to prevent starting in gear. So where are the lawsuits here?
I’m being facetious in a way I also would like to add I still don’t use a GPSCattleman84, OLDSKOOLERnWV, Texasgordo and 12 others Thank this. -
Oh he is in deep doodoo. It’s not the fact that he did a Uturn but the one he did was illegal. Those cross over spots are for emergency vehicles/ official vehicles only. They gonna bury him deep.
I also suspect he saw the vehicle and was just impatient. I get these little fluffers all the time in truck stops they see you about to walk past them and they floor it.
Had one cut right in front of me to set up for a back. I walked right across hi deck and yanked his red line and kept on walking..
Anyway, screenshot is where it happened. It’s way too big and inviting I have to say.

Ok ol buddy gotta call ya out on this one
I have it on VERY Professional Authority that this job CANNOT be done without a GPS!!!
I’ve been told( by same said authority). it’s the exact reason…I extremely dangerously blindsided into that loading dock instead of turning around in the excellent muddy pkg area past the bldg!!
And he pointed to his big shiny new twuck and told me just which one to getHammer166, hotrod1653, Numb and 8 others Thank this. -
Yes and no. Imo most drivers nowadays are too dumb to figure it out. As a rule unless there is quite literally no other way to get into a facility (i have a couple of routes like that where one side is a 5 ton bridge and there is a concrete strip in the middle with a single legal Uturn spot before the 5 ton brisge) its just not worth doing. Too easy to make a mistake even for an experinced driver. And these morons? Well the result speaks for itself.hope not dumb twucker, Kyle G. and Trucker61016 Thank this.

And yes he will blame the GPS. Simply due to my earlier post. More than likely, he's never had to make generic decisions on his on...ever. He's always relied on his parents or some automated machine to make decisions for him. He relied completely on the GPS to make the decision and he just went with it, because he has no idea how to make basic decisions on his own.Deere hunter, MACK E-6, hope not dumb twucker and 2 others Thank this.
