    maybe he was turning wide and she thought it would be good to go inside of his turn--its not like that doesnt happen
    he might not even know he hit her--it would be dark,and it wouldnt take much of a rub from the tandems to take out a bumper and a fender

    I'm having a problem here. If he was turning how did he hit and damage the passenger side of a car at an intersection? This I need to see drawn on paper. 32 years of trucking and looking at accidents and this makes no sence at all! Please put a diagram up for us to see.

    I've expended a good three brain cells on this, and I can't visualize it either.

    Unless the truck was turning right.


    And it happened in Great Britain.

    Not trying to place blame on anyone since the details of who was where is scarce.
    However is it possible that the driver never knew that he hit someone. I have personally seen a Acura being pushed sideways for a mile or so before the driver realized that there was a car in front of him.

    The post to the other thread was only speculation that the two were one in the same, not fact that they were the same incident.
