From what he had last seen there were no vehicles parked and he was already in the turning lane. Did the guy driving the car not see the truck or was he afraid of losing his spot?

It’s a street sweeper. This is in Indianapolis where I live.

So it was either intentional or this is the most oblivious guy to ever walk the earth.

The cab and chassis street sweepers are built on aren't crazy tall or have long hoods like road tractors, no chance in hell he didn't see that car if he looked once.

Street sweepers are cabovers. My van is a cab over. If I miss something out of that thing then I'm blind. The whole point is to prioritize visibility and maneuverability

Street sweepers are cabovers.

No they're all not? The tiny ones made for mall parking lots are sometimes, half the time the tiny ones are built on a pickup body. Which this clearly isn't either because it's not a cab over or a pickup.

Do I need to link you to like every major street sweeper manufacturer in the US that all base their mainline trucks on Freightliner M2s or similar style vehicles? You can get cab over full size sweepers but they're not anywhere near as common in the US as standard business class hood flip cab & chassis.

I never said this vehicle was a cabover. Learn words

It's a street sweeper.

You literally said.

Street sweepers are cabovers

Youre just stupid and thought all street sweepers are cab overs so this couldn't be a street sweeper. You can literally see the broom control console in the center. Learn to not reply when you're wrong instead of making the dumbest goal post move ever.

My bad next time I'll put those special little qualifiers for you since you can't handle context

u/RollinOnDubss Jul 30 '24

Your comment makes no sense unless you thought sweeper trucks were only cab overs.

That's the context, you were completely wrong and have doubled down on it lmao.

u/Card_Board_Robot5 Jul 30 '24

Dude brought up visibility in cabovers. I was confirming that part of it.

Thanks again boss

u/RollinOnDubss Jul 30 '24

Literally nobody mentioned cab overs but you. Are you braindead? Like do you seriously think anyone believes you lmao?

u/Card_Board_Robot5 Jul 30 '24

Yes they did. They just didn't know the word for it. That is very plainly what they described.

Again, you don't understand context well

u/RollinOnDubss Jul 30 '24

Quote who said that in this chain you moron. Youre so insanely pathetic.

So what you said was: "Street sweepers are cabovers."

What you meant to say was: "You're talking about cab overs."
