CDLLife reader Martin shared a heartbreaking footage that captures a dangerous situation on I-40. The incident occurred on the eastbound lane between Little Rock and Memphis. The footage shows 2 truck drivers in the right lane having to swerve to the left to pass a truck with no trailer that was parked in the right lane. The little vehicle was parked on the side of the road, adding to the chaos.
The driver was forced to take evasive action by swerving into the center lane to pass a hit-and-run with the truck, which was trying to avoid the bobtail truck. The video is a vivid reminder of how quickly things can go wrong on the highway, and how important it is for drivers to always stay alert and attentive. The video went viral, raising concerns about truck safety and the need for stricter rules.
Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident, but it could have easily turned into a tragedy. The video serves as a wake-up call for all drivers to exercise caution and obey the rules of the road. This incident underscores the importance of installing a dash camera in a vehicle. Dash cams capture any incidents on the road, providing valuable evidence in case of accidents or disputes.
