    I’d be honored to pay Brian’s bar tab!

    That was awesome and I definitely want to do that before I retire!

    The bad drivers with 4-wheelers and SUVs park them on occasion and drive RVs. I remember the last few times NASCAR held races at Talledega, AL. The fans in RVs going south on I-65 on their way to the race would be doing all of the typical dangerous behavior the 4-wheelers do, but it was being done by them in RVs, sometimes a Ford F-450 pulling a 40 foot 5th wheel trailer with a utility trailer connected to it AND be driving 75-80 MPH.

    That dash cam saved the trucker a lot of trouble.

    Indeed!

    I have front & rear cam in my rollback, covered me big time when I got shoulder swiped by a loaded T&T.

    I advocate that O&O's have them as well, protect your assets!

    Maybe ill catch #### for this... But as a truck driver u need to see that coming especially when ur in the left lane barely going fast enough to justify ur existance out there... No doubt shouldve seen the rv coming and backed off to let the idiot go... Theres no reason a truck driver should ever been in a crash there.... Regardless of the fault and stupidity of the rv..if any of the rv people were killed in this your would most definately believe one of those scumbags ambulance chasing lawyers wouldve found some fault in the truck driver for not backing down.

    People get caught up in fault, but avoiding is all the insurance companies and safety care about. Could it have been avoided? I think you're right.
