    IMG_6631.jpeg So this idiot, and yes I can call him that because he’s ok. Was going WAY too fast for conditions and tailgating another truck on I-94 going east by West Fargo.

    He hit some ice and spun it to face north, shot across the median, jack knifed it and ran up a bridge abutment and came back down. He drove out of the jack knife, and parked it. He got out and was moving around.



    Glad he’s ok but geeeeeez.

    This happened in front of my fiancé and I yesterday evening while we were heading into Fargo. She was driving. I posted this on my personal FB page and Bonehead Truckers page. HP agreed that he was an idiot. Truck was from Ontario, Canada

    Sadly becoming a more and more common sight anymore. Had one on friday that absolutely blew my doors off and nearly hit me coming out of omaha on that black ice. Guy had to have been doing at least 70. Saw him smashed to hell the next day. It was that black boxtruck in the median just past the first rest area out of omaha thats absolutely obliterated. These morons are getting worse every year and anymore if there is black ice or extreme snow i just get the hell off the road. Last thing i need is some mouth breathing imo barely sentient moron doing 75+ on black ice plowing into the back of or hell front my rig when they lose control and getting one or both of us killed.

    To be fair if you have already passed multiple serious wrecks, all other traffic is topping out at about 20 and you still choose to do 75+ driving like an agressive idiot flying around them like its a dry sunny day....its hard not to come to that conclusion.

    As for breeding. Used to be they had to. Lemming strategy basicly. All that brainpower was redirected south to keep them from dieing out. Sadly with all the warning lables, government handouts for mass breeding and better medial care allowing more to survive their own stupid. The gene pool no longer cleans itself out and is starting to overflow.

    Thats fair lol. And while i wouldnt wish harm directly on anyone...im also not going to help when someone ignores everyone warning him french kissing a great white shark is a bad idea when he inevitably gets his face eaten.

    as my grandpa used to say, "he's too stupid to be alive".

    meaning back in his day the idiot would have died as a kid from doing something real dumb

    Oh cmon!! Floor it. Drive dangerously, that way when you spin out like that guy, you’ve got enough power to get out of ditch back on the road, not slide into it and get stuck. :rolleyes:
