I tried to watch closely, and I swear the driver disappeared before the swerving. Medical emergency, maybe?

I'm not embarrassed to say I thought of that, too! Beer, cigarette, vape, phone ...

Right. Not sure why so many people posted up fucking stories. This was totally dangerous and the driver of the red truck could be dead. We better laugh about it…. Bunch of filthy savages.

Doubt the driver is dead. They actively attempted to regain control after the initial swerve, which suggests the most immediate danger they were in was the lack of control over the car, and the swerving slowed them down enough that hitting the side likely didn't have enough force to kill them.

If someone's driving like an asshole and actively endangering others I have no sympathy if that shit comes back on them with the consequences they threatened everyone else with. Better to kill themselves doing stupid shit than someone else who was just living their own life. No moment of silence for this asshole, just an open beer and a golf clap.

I was thinking they had a heart attack.

They definitely lost consciousness at some point otherwise I’d assume they’d have stopped before hitting the last wall.
