I drove past it probably less then 20 minutes after it happened.He's lucky he didn't roll those doubles into the trees. He crashed through 20' of trees with the doubles resting against the trees on their right side. The tractor was turned to the left. Cab was in good condition. Looked like he could put it into gear and pull those trailers out if he could get traction
I saw one black four wheeler with the left rear quarter bashed pretty good. I'm guessing Estes was in the middle lane when it it happened.EAzYrIDer007 Thanks this. -
when a car "cuts you off"..I think I would just hold the wheel tight and brace for impact., I would try to lessen it by moving to the right a bit but swerving to avoid a crash is just asking for bigger problems.
EAzYrIDer007 and Blind Driver Thank this. -

I don't know if the driver was OK, but I'll be he was shaken up and sore today.EAzYrIDer007 and 900,000-tons-of-steel Thank this. -
Yea man, I'm gonna grab a dash cam too before long. Maybe by the holidays or shortly thereafter. -
If im driving and someone cut me off i would go faster if i was not going the speed limit and hit you harder for been stupid, put my life and other motorist life in danger. a four wheeler went underneath my trailer in ny driving and texting on her cell phone i didn't even ask her if she was okay until emergency guys showed up.
road_runner and EAzYrIDer007 Thank this. -
Almost went head-on with a four-wheeler who tried to pass a column of cars in a no passing zone. Just before the anticipated impact I thought to myself: Better bite the bullet and take the ditch to your left, no way in hell I am rolling my doubles for your stupidity. Instead, he moved to his right and pushed another car into the ditch. Guess he had his priorities in mind. 9,999 FJ reward points later, I got myself a dash-cam. Has night vision and everything.

i always think like that it's my license, my life, my job i aint loose none of these to save someone' s life who was not paying attention on the road. i was making a lane change a few days ago i check my mirror the lane i was moving into was clear with my lane change signal flashing i check 3 times and when i started getting over my eyes focus on my passenger side mirror a four wheeler tried to pass me on my right side going 80mph i didn't do nothing than watching him killing himself i still get over and he had to leave the highway he took the shoulder and pass me show me finger
