The video says all. Car driver suddenly swerves into truck, causing truck
to literally jump the jersey barrier and land on it's side.

I hope the sam hell the car driver gets tossed in jail and his license
revoked.

Evan Platt: Presiding Judge, Jury and executioner.

You did not include tire failure or mechanical failure. Oh wait, it was a
toyota right? So maybe the accelerator stuck?

It is a known fact, when ever a truck is involved with a car at a crash
site, 4 out of 5 crashes were caused by the car. I for one would like to
know exactly why the car made that maneuver.

Had you bothered looking in MTT first, you'd have seen my post there on the
subject. I just used a different subject for mtt.

Yeah that was a pretty spectacular crash that happened here on the
Dallas North Tollway this past week. Thanks for posting the link.
They released this video a few days ago, and showed it on t.v., but I
couldn't find a link to it on the web.

Right there at the 16 second mark you can the see the truck is square
in his lane, and the car is swerving into the big rig. Amazing how
the truck went over the median, and amazing no one was seriously hurt
in this wreck. ( at least that's what they reported on the news ).

The driver of that silver car that swerves out of the way at the last
second before being crushed by that truck ... amazing.

I'm guessing the car rammed the trunk's front wheel in just the right
place so as to "steer" it over the median. A pretty wild ride...
amazing no one was seriously injured!
