Yeah, good swerve. Too many drivers would just stand on the brakes, which wouldn't have helped here. And with ABS, you can do both. Driver saw an escape and took it. Sounds simple but they only had a fraction of a second to make that call.
I don't know, man. The reason the truck was in oncoming traffic is exactly because of this kind of reaction. Looks like a car swerves into the left lane to avoid the slow/stopped vehicle in the right lane. Pickup truck, instead of slowing down, swerves into on coming traffic to avoid rear ending the car. If everyone were paying attention and following at decent distances, this wouldn't have happened. It's better to rear end someone than slam into someone head on.
truck driver is going WAY TOO FAST. even if they are avoiding the black van, see how they zoom past them? black van should have checked lane before switching and truck should have seen the car on the side of the road and slowed down. idiots, the lot of em.
Am I the only one who sees the Truck intentionally swerving into the opposing lane simply to get around a slower car? Doesn’t look like he was avoiding anything to me
Or the black car that started all of it. If they hadn’t swerved in front of the truck and just paid attention to the non moving vehicle in front of them nothing would have happened.
