Did you catch this related video:

A little car sends a semi over the barrier. It's like martial arts

I don't see how that could happen unless the ramp was out in the middle of the
lane and was actually two ramps cleverly positioned at wheel-separation width.
Nice movie, though.

I'd guess that the truck driver reflexively turned away from the car, with
disastrous results.
