    That's why it's called the "Suicide"... Not the "Passing Side"

    But the trucker Definetally knew he had hit something and should have stopped.

    If the driver is caught and procecuted for leaving the scene of the accident, then all involved will have gotten what they deserve IMO

    The driver knew he hit something. He applied the brakes as the car spun off his front bumper.

    1st, the trucks brake lights are stuck on, making the 4 wheeler madder and madder, I don't condone the truckers actions, I'm not sure how someone could miss that, but damage was probably minimal, and a valuable lesson was learned by that 4 wheeler that day.
     
    lovesthedrive Thanks this.

    Am i the only seeing a possible road rage incident, both of them look like they were hauling ### and it seems the truck deliberately did a pit maneuver on the car.
     
    Bud A. and 201 Thank this.

    Sure do. If it wasn't road rage, I'm sure the trucker would have stopped.

    Oh thank God. By 1745 I’m in Ontario, OR and 2 hours past La Grande. ( that’s actually the back side of The Ladd canyon hill closer to North Powder) Oh wait I’m a glorified tow truck driver. Haha never mind.

    That was one of the local ### hats that drive 75 down that hill. That’s why his break lights were on because he knows the state troopers sit at the bottom of the hill waiting for a truck to cruise down the hill.

    With that said... fry him. Less traffic for me.
