Never stop 911 commission gives truck drivers the right to run over people trying to stop a Simi truck. Do to the risk of highjacking .
omg the first clip tho
👋👍✌
Why not plow in those break checkers, you have the camera to back you up. They so deserve it
I need a compilation of trucks ramming these morons!!!
Years ago, when I first got my driver's license, my Dad told me to pretend like everyone else on the road was crazy. The older I get, the less I have to pretend.
I remember the good old days Before all the road regulations... crazy insurance...and excessive amount of people on the road.....When Truckers just used to drive right through idiots that cause problems......Ahhh the good old days!!!
It’s true. I’m sure you’re a good driver. But it’s the other people who are careless and wreck less you have to pay attention to. I just got my license. The more I drive the more I’m seeing how careless people are when they drive.
So True!! 😁👍👍
I drove a truck for a little bit, I just decided to give them a break even though I could get out of the truck and body slam the whole car. It proved to be better on my sanity in the long run.
its so true dude. i hate that its come to this. god forbid you pay attention and be a reasonable human being while youre operating a 5k pound weapon… that would just make things way too painless and logical. cant have any of that.
“Just hit him” - me every 30 seconds while watching this.
All I can say, is you truck drivers have a lot of patience and self control... I would have been put away for multiple vehicular homicides a long time ago... good thing I'm not a trucker.
@@equinox2553 Not if they're dead from me smashing them up like an empty can of soda. I'm glad I don't want to be a truck driver. I would lose my shit if someone intentionally decided to do this.
In most of these situations, if the truck had hit the arsehole early on, they simply could have said the driver cut them off, and they couldn’t stop in time. Onus is then on the arsehole not the trucker. As soon as the trucker ’proves’ it was able to stop, the onus then falls to them to avoid the incident.
Exactly!
@@equinox2553 Woosie talk is what Ken Titus would say.
Brake checking a semi feels like a good way to get a darwin award
I always figured that when a semi had his blinker on, he wasn't asking to come over, he was telling me. For me it was always a losing proposition to mess with them. I try to have a high respect for all traffic and especially truckers. I have made a few mistakes and so far they have all forgiven me for it. Hats off to the big rig's.
When I'm coming up to an intersection I'm always aware of any truck in the left lane figuring they could turn either way so I give them plenty of leeway. Same if I'm entering from a side street and I see a big rig coming with his blinker on give him lots of room to make that turn. On occasion I'll also stop in a through intersection even though I have the right of way just to let a trucker onto the street. Especially true if I notice there's traffic behind me and the truck has been waiting for a bit for a non-existent opening.
"Professional" (shitty) drivers who don't know how to zipper-merge don't deserve to have a driver's license. The guy merging at the point where the lanes come together is doing the correct thing, trying to block people because you stupidly "think" they're "cutting in line" is not just stupid, but also a violation. You're not the police.
is it just me, when they open their door and get out, does anyone just want the truck to pull forward and start pushing the car?
Nope, you are NOT the only one
That's exactly what I'd do and I'd make sure his dumbass ended up under the tires of my 80k lb truck
I would. Too many crazies.
@@connormorris2797 ummm thats illegal but l
I wouldn't push the car. I would run over the dumbass, who steps out of the car.
Charles Darwin: Yes! Yes! Get out of your car in the middle of a busy freeway and try to start a fight! Please! Brake check that semi too!
Two aussie guys were instantly run over by a truck while fighting literally in the busiest highway in new south Wales
In Los Angeles, I had a guy run up to my Freightliner while I was at a red light. He jumped up on my fuel tank side step. I slammed my door open and launched his ass into the oncoming lane....The light went green and I started grabbing gears....I saw him pick himself up in the rearview mirror.

Me: Gets cut off and brake checked.
Also me: Let's see how fast this rig will go.
Cue scene from Duel.
"Whoops I accidentally stomped the accelerator instead of the brake in my sheer panic," say my intrusive thoughts
“That’s a weird place to put a speed bump”
I got my motorcycle license last year and I ended up getting involved in a situation like this. I was passing a rig on the highway, so he didn't move over for the car entering from the on-ramp. The car ducked behind the semi, rode up on the shoulder to my left almost putting me under the trailer, and cut in front of the semi. I quickly braked and ducked behind the semi to allow him to wiggle if he needed to. The semi ended up swerving to the LH shoulder. He ended up having a witness with a helmet cam along with his own dash cam. Still the most harrowing experience I've had. You drivers have a lot of idiots like that to deal with. I feel for you guys.
It amazes me how drivers that are clearly in the wrong are always the ones that are so angry...
Lol so true!!
Nailed it!
It's really not that amazing at all. That level of entitlement and self importance makes it near impossible for people like that to accept their faults in any kimd of graceful way.
Clearly in the wrong but clearly think they're right !
They thrive on this type of negative energy that they create themselves and blame everyone else for.
I can’t believe people really stop in front of a speeding semi- truck! That’s insane.
Thanks for commenting that. It’s exactly what I was thinking.
💯.
Happens on a daily basis. People who say they give trucks a wide berth only measure based on passing cars the trucks speed. Cars give maybe 10 ft, trucks need 200ft to slow, 350+ft to stop depending on weight and road conditions.
It's insane to me. That's how you get yourself killed. The semi will always win. Unless it's another semi.
Road laws need to be changed in this country. In some other countries, if someone purposely cuts you off and/or brake checks you, you are allowed to RAM THEM INTO THE DITCH!! As long as you have video proof of what they were doing.
These videos make me question the sanity of some drivers. Idiots in cars compilation should be a mandatory watch for anyone learning to drive!
Every time I think about going back to driving, I watch your videos and in less than a couple minutes I’m cured of that insanity. Thanks.
I was taught never to get in front of a semi unless you can see the entire semi in your rearview mirror. That's how you know there's a safe distance between you and them.
Try to give a bit more. Objects in mirror are closer than they appear ;)
even safer is doing this for every vehichle that you pass
@@iliandocx8392 I was JUST gonna say, I try and keep this rule with every vehicle on the road, not just semis and buses!
It's a good place to start but it also depends on the speed. The faster they're going, the more space and stopping distance they need
@@JJ38255 For sure! I make sure there's plenty of space in between a semi and I.
To everybody out there that merges onto a freeway....THE ACCELERATOR IS YOUR FRIEND. That is all. Have a nice day.
so true, Many actually slow down when trying to merge onto a freeway where cars or trucks are doing at least 65. Too many morons who think they can drive.
That’s why I usually speed up on the ramp to get on the freeway to prevent that from happening cause people are assholes and morons.
One of my biggest driving pet peeves is people trying to merge going like 40, and there's a line of like 10 of use stuck behind them. Like bruh, you're the one causing traffic and gunna end up causing an accident
What is the proper speed as per the BMW? I would guess by the time you merge you should be going whatever the speed limit is there.
Jesus if only the idiots here in Dallas could understand this concept. Smh.
In some countries these behaviors are considered a prelude to high jackings or armed robbery and treated accordingly Especially by truckers.
That laugh at 3:02 must have felt so good lmao
Imagine having such a fragile ego you feel the need to stop in the middle of the express way just because someone honked at them for getting a little close to them.
Honking without cause should be a fine.
Some ppl wont accept they made mistake even they are wrong good thing have dashcam it saves lot of pain afterwards case it goes to court idiot usually lose 100% and issuers usually wont even need lawyer XD
Is it me, or is Florida the road rage capital of the country? Maybe California too, but a good third of all road rage videos I see are in Florida.
@@karimsaad6947 There probably is.
imagine driving like an asshole and being too scared to get out of the truck and handle your business
brake checking a semi on a wet road is some real genius-level driving
@Pike Fish They can't sue if they aren't alive 💀
@@satanyeehaw4850 a very good point. i won't say say they should learn the hard way, because they can't learn shit if they dead.
@Pike Fish they'd have a very hard time, considering almost every semi now has dash cams
@Pike Fish Sue the devil lmao
Its irrelevant, you are the professional and let him in. In some states they will give you a ticket for not letting him merge
guy at the end was way to respectful especially after getting woke up like that.
My wife's dad was a trucker. Apparently one of the things she noticed that made me a keeper was how I treated professional drivers. That's nice to know.
It's becoming more and more apparent that I need a dashcam
Right...I gotta find mine 😳
I got myself one after realizing how many of the accidents happen in VA where I live. So I got one and one guy nearly hit me so I was so happy I had my dash cam. I was behind him he pulled up in front of me within an inch of my car then had to brake suddenly. I was already making room but he didn’t even wait for me to slowly make room for him
I've been thinking the same thing 🤔
It's a must have at this point.
Yep, and a car to install it in. :)
3:10 100% the driver rolled down his window to laugh loudly at the driver who was pulled over, classic. :)
Prior to that he said "You had it coming" in french
Vive la France 🇫🇷🗼
Thats call karma bro..
My favorite part!
Immature and ridiculous if you ask me. It’s like flipping people off, honestly what’s the point? Lol. Plus you just draw attention to yourself from the same cops pulling him over. Just move on.
People break checking semis like they would not be able to push them away xD
We all make mistakes while driving but some people really refuse to admit they did. Crazy honestly
Not once in my entire life have I ever thought to, ever considered … _brake-checking_ a semi tractor trailer. Not once.
I'd be afraid to do it. With the way cars are made nowadays, it'd be like stepping on a cockroach.
That's because most truck driver's are to stupid to know that they will be middle aged and flipping burgers after they smash the car if they don't have it on cam.
@@tcoyle440 even though the idiot drove up an already closing lane past 53’ of trailer, on an already closing lane, because I guess he’s entitled to be in front the truck, did I mention he drove by 53’ of trailer on an already closing lane!
You should try it someday. Really gets the adrenaline going.

Such a fake forced laugh.

7:00 great idea to keep moving up on the red card making them have to make a sharper turn to get back on track 😐
At lot of these “Good Samaritan” drivers are nearly as dumb as the idiots in this video
I spent thirty years driving for a living. The situation out there has gotten progressively worse and there really is no indication that it will improve. My heart goes out to the guys trying to provide for their families and having to put up with these lunatics.
The guy laughing at the car being pulled over is priceless
legend has it hes still laughing till this day
Maniacally
😂🤣😂that was great
It was a little forced
@@thedarklord573 maybe he's from Quebec, Canada! Ahahah. I think he said "go fuck yourself, bitch!" ANY FRENCH SPEAKER HERE TO CONFIRM!? :D
Imagine owning a car , and thinking your tiny car could hold up to a SEMI TRUCK
Obviously it can. Truckers don't want to go through the paces or the report/ potential lawsuits because of some dickhead. Rather just stop and avoid the situation. Pisses me off really. I wish they had every right to plow throw these idiots and even out the gene pool a bit.
@@ericr154 yeah but as a trucker I could tell you patience for shit like this is LIMITED .
One second of a trucker getting distracted at the right moment (even on a straight long highway with no traffic) and they could have been unknowingly squashed.
Ego is a crazy drug
Your "deer guard" stopped that buck in his tracks! Too funny! 🤣🤣🤣
You got to be some kind of suicidal to play chicken with a semi 🤣
I like how when other drivers mess up, they have the audacity to act like everyone else should yield to them. "HEY I MISSED MY TURN! Everyone stop and let me in NOW!!"
"A bad driver never misses their exit." What it means is they'll swerve across 2 lanes of highway traffic to take their exit instead of going to the next one and doubling back.
HOW MUCH TURN SINGLE TO CROSS 8 LANE! NONE?! OK, I TURN NOW, GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY ELSE *turns and causes a multi car crash behind themselves*
A good driver is alert for anything and everything that could possibly happen.
Constantly watching the traffic is more important than playing with your mobile phone.
@@lupvirga nice family guy reference, I got it
@@CRneu I swear people are allergic to just turning around. I spend most of my day on the road, and the junk I see is insane.
When I was in school, something my instructor said has stuck with me: “Be patient. You’re the professional, not them.”
I really respect this, thank you for taking these words to heart.
Exactly. The was no excuse for the 2nd accident.
100% agree!! Thank you for this reply
cadê a tradução para o português do Brasil
VIDEO 2 clearly says the car was at fault (according to both insurance companies). The merging lane is supposed to yield, which means slowdown & get behind the truck
.
It's evident that too many people treat driving as a contest. When we get two of these kind of drivers together neither one wins.
No 4. Whilst he’s swaggering up to your cab, you pull away, traffic permiting, and take out his door.
What’s up with everyone opening their door while they’re driving lol
They're about to tuck and roll
They're the same ones that block freeways to virtue signal.
Tweakers tweakin'.
Speaking as a tire tech, I wanna see someone do that with these new Cadillacs, bmw, lincons..basically all new luxury vehichles. For those who don't know, when you open the door, while moving, it'll automatically apply the parking brake. 😂😂😂
Their AC doesnt work
My step dad taught me how to drive and he told me, “ drive as if everyone else doesn’t know how to” every time I see these type of videos or crazy drivers on the road, I remember his quote
My dad said. Think of everyone else on the road as a phucking moron that is probably going to do something suicidal and you'll stay relatively safe.
@@nomadcarpenter8549 that’s what my driving instructor said to me 😅🤣

I live in Rotorua, New Zealand. The town is quite busy with logging trucks and other big trucking units.
I always, always show them the utmost respect. Makes life easier for everyone.
I love how you explain the outcomes . Great videos man
The last clip. "Did you even get out and check with him?" That guy is a unsung hero! Lol
The second video at 1:13 the trucker recording was very much in the wrong for not slowing down to let the car merge over
@@Eginhardt how? The trucker is not legally required to let the guy in, he was forcefully shoving himself in.
@@mackenziebittner5699 It’s being a courteous driver, just like when there a lot of cars lined up every other car should let one of them out.
@@Eginhardt I understand it’s about being courteous, but most of the time there is also a sign that says the lane cuts off ( I understand this may not be the case). If you see that sign and continue to drive in that lane to go in front of others that have been waiting you’re just being an asshole so why should others let you in. There’s not enough evidence to prove who’s in the wrong/right.
That trucker gave that other trucker one hell of a brake! If I was sleeping in my sleeper and that crap was happening we would of had a come to baby Jesus moment.
I want to see more semis smashing into break checkers
me and you both
That’s not a good idea, unless you don’t have a choice. You rear end somebody, and it’s your fault in most States. People may get killed. Just make sure you have a dash cam to prove later it wasn’t your fault, or you couldn’t avoid it!
Seriously. I appreciate that they're being responsible and professional, but ffs these people deserve to get their cars wrecked.
Brake checked go flying into a river or cliff would be nice
brake
That truck driver at 3 minutes was hilarious.
I love how people area always in a rush when they're behind you. They'll tailgate, swear, flip you off, etc. But when they do manage to get in front of you, they're magically no longer in any hurry at all! They perfectly fine now going 10-15 below the speed limit.... Never made sense to me...
They just want to be front, they think they are leaders.
@david toler same in Seattle. Drove there for the first time 3 weeks ago. Hated it
And they usually have time to stop, get out of their car, and get into a fight, proving that they're need for speed was not so emergency, they're just major league a-holes.
People just hate being behind things they envision as 'slow' even when they actually aren't. When I was on a learner license I'd always have people acting impatient as shit even when I'm at the speedlimit.
I find it amusing when I intentionally make it easy to pass me and they have no intention of passing. We're not talking brake checking-we're talking a reasonable slow down and move over skimming the shoulder in hopes they pass (for both single lane AND two or three lane roads this has happened to me), but nah. Road's clear as the desert sky but I guess someone's lonely and their car needs some affection? idk.
I just love how they are in such a hurry just to slow down and cause problems. It like oh I thought you were a rush but you have time now to slow everyone up
yep.
They ain’t got a life bro.. that’s what they live for sad to say. Dumb asses on the roads is all
Man u gotta print bigger I'd have to get a magnifying glass too read it's like small print on purpose. Once I see that I quit trying unreadable
It’s great when you see that asshole flying down the street almost getting into several accidents. Then 10 minutes later you still end up seeing him behind you at a red light 😂😂😂🤦♂️
If thats what it takes to show what holding traffic up means, so be it. Move.
Not a trucker, but I do tow a 40 foot RV sometimes. These truckers (in these videos) have a lot of patients.
Number 3 was laughing like Rocket Raccoon.
i love how in the thumbnail it looks like that impala driver is wearing a traffic cone as a hat
PYLON HAT MAN AWAY!!!!
Lmao
And it looked like the stripe on the road was a machete of some sort at first glance, I was like wtf!
I thought it looked like he was holding a stick.
@@alexrprice5445 lmao same I thought he had a bat
“Ooh I’m a tiny cicada let me step in the path of this elephant and then claim HES in the wrong for stepping on me!”
This is what this feels like
Ikr? Whether you are right or wrong, you're DEAD. So, lose.
Dying, just to prove a point is NOT worth it. Lol.
Amen all fun and games till you pushed over the side of a bridge for brake testing in-front of a semi with a loaded trailer. There I'd no road respect anymore and it's sad.
That’s a good analogy
Cicadas aren’t that stupid 😅
There's a nautical term called "law of gross tonnage".
I like to keep to that on the road as well.
Makes it safer for me.
@3:11That trucker laugh just brought me so much joy.
Instant karma is a sight to behold ... I'm right there with him!
These other drivers need some serious help, mental cases. I'm glad these trucks have video cameras
The first thing I was taught when learning to drive was you do NOT mess with trucks. Keep a safe distance and remember the can't stop on a dime. Healthy respect for something way bigger than you is good for your life.
THAT'S CHANGED, this NEW breed of push button steering wheel holders, CAN'T DRIVE
They can't stop on a dime but they WILL stop ON YOU. I've seen cars wrapped around light poles after being T-boned by a truck coming down a hill and unable to stop for the red light. The car was ''right'' but without looking, they turned out ''dead right''. Look both ways and maybe second check that left where the motorcycle or speeding car may suddenly have appeared.
Exactly, when it comes too semi’s wi the me i keep a good 2 car distance
Yeah, fully loaded semis are kinda at the top of the food chain on the roads. Your little Honda is barely a snack.
Yeah, I remember one of the questions I got asked when learning to drive was, "What do you do if you have nobody in front of you and a Tractor Trailer behind you and the Light at the Intersection turns Yellow and you look in your Rear-View Mirror and see a big puff of Black Smoke?" And of course the correct answer would be, HIT THE GAS, because the Truck Behind you just did lol.
I had been driving commercially for over 40 yrs. now retired. Everything I see one of these videos my blood pressure goes up. Yes, they're interesting to watch. But, in 90% of the cases all you have to do is slow down and let the idiots go on. This is a lot better than spending downtime do paperwork and a random drug and alcohol test. Driver smarter not harder.
Couldn’t agree more. Yes sometimes it’s tempting to try to muscle your way but you gotta just take a breath and remind yourself it’s not worth it.
Agreed. I've been driving LTL in and around the big city for a year now and if I drove like some of these truckers I'd have a collision every day.
Pretty much for everything going on out there. Let em go, besides the fool in the impala could have had a gun. Just not worth getting into anything you could have just avoided. Truckers provide all the stuff we need, why put them through more stress?
Completely agree. Two A**holes never improve the situation.
Especially the first semi driver who was clearly in the wrong - my best friend lost his CDL for a slightly similar situation where the car driver was actually at fault but there was no video of it. If you see someone else make a mistake and cognitively decide to allow an accident to happen rather than avoid it than you are in the wrong not the other driver.
I used to enjoy driving when there wasn’t so many cars. Now I just hate it.
Le « bien fait pour ta gueule !! » à 3,07 min est magistral je m’y attendais pas !😂😂

3:51always cracks me up to see ppl who seem to be in a hurry, suddenly drop all previous plans and decide they gonna just sit in the middle of traffic
he is a total bin bag thats why :)
You got that right! "Big hurry, need to get in front, got honked at, pissed, not big hurry" Yeah totally stupid.
hah yep always in a rush but call them out suddenly they have all the time in the world.
What a fool. He risked causing accidents in multiple lanes just so he could swagger up to a truck driver over a horn signal. He also risked getting hit himself by the fast traffic in the left lane.
Hurry up and wait.
There ought to be severe consequences for brake checking. It is highly dangerous.
'Brake checking' BIG RIGS reminds me of when I was in high school. I was biggest and strongest kid in school. And every guy who ever tried to pick a fight with me was half my size. It always baffled me. They were relying on MY ability to restrain myself. And that is exactly what these fools are doing with the driver's of these BIG RIGS. The thing is.... every now and then you don't feel like holding back.
My personal take: Someone who zooms past, cuts you off, stops you in the middle of the road and gets out of their car is hostile and unpredictable. I'd say there's reasonable grounds to fear for your safety...
Agree, but on the other hand, the whole situation could have been avoided, if the truck driver let that bastard in, to merge in safely, to me the whole situation was like: "no. im not gonna allow you in. no. thats my lane. go back." seriously like in a kindergarden, he even got closer to the white car to not let any space for the other car, its childish. If you are a professional driver, there is no point to act like a primadonna or an alpha male in every situation. Slow down a bit, let him pass, and everyone can go on their own, in peace. Without loosing a single second. And yes i know that the grey car should have let the semi, as his responsibility to merge in safely, but still, taking a collusion instead of lifting your leg of off your gas pedal for a second... is a whole new level of stupidity.
The only adult in this drama was the white car driver, he tried to give everyone enough space to avoid an accident.
Lyca Robeen Trucks do not have the stopping distance to allow someone in when they’re inches away from the bumper. If you encounter a semi hauling a trailer, assume that trailer is fully loaded at max weight and the truck needs multiple car lengths to stop.
@@Sogeking995 loaded or not, he had plenty of time to let that dude in. He intentionally stopped him from merging.
@@stanny18 it's not childish. The trucker allocates that distance between him and the car in the front for safety. That's the minimum distance a truck needs to stop in case of an instant traffic slowdown.
When the other car wants to get into that "safety distance", it's raping the truck's safety precautions. Putting both himself and the trucker's life in danger.
And for what? To gain extra 0.4 seconds... Now you tell me who's being childish?
It already takes a toll on your energy to keep an eye on anything that can go wrong during a long-distance transportation cruise. You can't also keep an eye for the person behind you to get them to their destination less than a second quicker.
@@Lordofthepoors learn to drive. You the only one childish
I love how some people feel the need to make THEIR problem everybody else's problem.

I love when you see 10 left lane closed signs and there’s still people trying to cut you off after you’ve moved over 1/2 mile ago
Your supposed to wait until the very end before you merge in a situation like that. Obviously not cut off that truck, but don't think your some kinda hero for stopping people from making things more efficient.
(Google what how to zipper on the road and your kind will be blown).
@@carlinanderson2605 That’s not what he’s talking about at all. No it is not safe in any wait to way to the very last minute and cut other people off because the lane finally ended and now you have no where to go.
That holds traffic up.
They give a specific distance of warning with signs to allow a safe merge for all drivers. Not for everyone to wait until the very last second and then cut off someone else.

Part of the job is handling the stress of driving on roads full of idiots. When you become one, it's time to hang up the keys.
And its the law where number 2 happened: ARS 28-701A states that a person must control the speed of a vehicle as required to avoid colliding with another vehicle, person or object. By this standard, failing to hit the brakes and reduce one's speed to avoid an accident is a breach of the law.
No, I promote to stand your ground. Hence I carry a shot gun with me an have had to exercise my rights a few times.
You jump the queue at Target, you become my target.
You encroach within 20 feet of my car, you are crushed.
the first video, the trucker should have let him in.
@@robbyddurham1624 no. Because the semi had right of way and it was the cars job to yield to traffic when merging.
Ya some of these accidents seem like they could have been avoided on the truckers end
Watching these videos certainly gives me a lot more respect for these truckers!
These videos are a testament to the saying, 'It's not you; it's everyone else on the road.' Idiots in cars compilation is proof that caution is key.
Having watched hundreds of these clips over the years, I've come to realise 90% of drivers are idiots...
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏 There is no road respect anymore. Every driver thinks they own the road through thier taxes. Drivers education is a joke.. ok Billy pull into this parking lot and let's learn how to park.. instead of real world driving like let's teach you how to enter a highway/parkway/expressway no let's not learn how to drive in the snow or how to handle a car with a blowout or hydroplaning no no let's go parallel park..
That's a basic term. I believe it more of the total lack of awareness thinking THEY ARE IN THE RIGHT! But Yeah...IDIOTS=ACCURATE!
That's because 99% of people are idiots
Jo Mott yes and they have no idea on how to drive in the same road as a big semi!
I know how much they weigh and what stopping one requires! I had several friends who drive semis! I have the utmost respect for the tricks! I know who loses in a battle of road!
I reference this video when I talk about why we need to periodically test drivers every ten years because some people STILL don't have a clue what traffic laws are.
Have a Clue to Abide by Traffic Laws? For Those type of (Irrationally Irresponsible) Drivers...What's That?!
If the DMV and government were apart of it I’m not down.
The rules may apply to some people, but certainly not to me….
Every 10 years? More like 5 or less.
"Some"
Seems like 3/4 of people on the road have literally zero idea how to even drive, traffic laws might as well be quantum theory to them
I am soooo que impressed with these drivers keeping their composure!🎉 i would have been livid. I am taking lessons❤. Thank you all who are on the roads for us all. We need you. Keep safe. Crazies who ant to confront a semi have no sense in their skulls.
That guy at the end was hilarious.... "HES STUCK!". Stayed way calmer than I would have.
Oh for sure, I would have ripped his lard ass out of that truck if he done that to me. Long distance driving truly sucks and if they wake me up from a much needed rest they would have to face what's coming.
Thank you for waking me up hahah
100%. I would have dragged his ass out of his truck into the snow and let him eat some fucking snow. I HATE it when people wake me up for no fucking reason.
"Thank you for waking me" you Americans are so polite. Imagine if it was an Aussie trucker.
@@JohnJ469 You’d be cowering in your houses because the government tells you to be afraid of COVID 😂
My opinion that stopping in the middle of a 6-lane highway to argue, at the risk of one's own life and that of others ... is just ... CRAZY!
it is. idk why anyone gets out of their vehicle out of anger, but esp there.
If i was tagging with someone i would have lowkey got out, get in his vehicle, and just drive off.
Cuz people like him don't deserve to drive if he's putting everyone's life at risk
I just don’t know how truck drivers deal with people like this. Unbelievable.
It takes less than 5 seconds to let someone in front of you. What's the problem?Just be a good person and let them in. It costs nothing.
100% agree , thought this a couple of times and the moron sent in his clip of being a complete DickHead
Gotta love when they're the ones that cut you off and then have the nerve to get angry at you lmao
omg yes I had a guy cut me off in a turn lane all because he wanted to get food & I had to get to work on time & I roll down my window & told him u seen that I was already here ur ass should’ve gotten behind & that u better be glad I didn’t hit ur ass
YES
Or the defeat they walk off in when you tell them "I hope you do realize I have a dash cam"
“My deer guard didn’t catch a scratch.” 🤣😂
There was one guy driving behind a battle tank on public road, thinking tank cannot stop on dime. It can. There was no scratch on tank either. Car was 3ft shorter and of course damaged beyond repair.
Yeah that was funny
I never heard anybody call them deer guards cause they're called grill guards
@@braxtonpierce8768 they have a bunch of names depending where you’re from.
@@braxtonpierce8768 We call them bull bars.
@@rudychacon7175 I know there's two names for them here in the U.S, but I never heard of them called anything else
I always thought about driving truck. After watching this I realized I shouldn't, because the first time someone pulls any of this, I'm hitting the gas, not the brake.
Same here.
You know how the flying aces had the number of insignia kills on the side of their plane? I'd probably have stickers of a car with crumpled back end and break check written underneath - stick one on the side of the truck each time.
I'll stick to my car and behave myself.
After watching these, I’ve become a truckers best friend driving wise. I understand the trucks limitations.
2:50 pure happiness indeed 😂😂 his laugh is also very contagious
I totally agree with you 😹
"Bien fait pour ta gueule !!!!"
-> "well done in your f....ing face"
French people raging is soo funny🤣🤣🤣
That happened to me once and the best way I could describe that feeling is pure elation.
🤣🤣🤣
I love how the the driver made the guy trying to cut in line for fuel reverse all the way out.
Yeah, that was pretty sweet.
Yeah, nothing quite like putting a dumb driver in their place by making them endanger others by backing up their 60ft+ tractor-trailer. Sad part is that the trucker kept pulling up while he was reversing, which all truckers will tell you is a grand idea. If you give people no outs, than you get to post a video that makes you look like an ass as well as the other person. I guess two wrongs does make a right in trucker lore.
Who is the best lawyer to call if a semi pull out and hit you ?
@@broabc66 none because 98% of accidents are 4 wheelers faults.
@@shawnsanders2534 I get what you are saying, but as a trucker I have seen certain entitled truckers think they can drive down the wrong side of the road to cut in front of the other truckers waiting to park or fuel. They are more dangerous. From my perspective I laughed my butt off just seeing that jerk get put in his place. Did you notice the trucker on the left giving the thumbs up?
Damn I wouldn’t have been so nice if someone had woken me up with a air horn at 1 am at a rest stop.
These people should all be arrested for interfering with interstate commerce
Some of those truck drivers were really good and professional, others need driving lessons and anger management classes.
I drive a 18 wheeler and i agree with Dave
@@markonastov8918 great, I'm impressed, dont block the fuel island. go park,
Please. Humans be humans. People do things and never have repercussions. Sick of it. If some bully tried a driver and he messed them up , so be it.
Like that second one. Like sure its annoying and that car was an asshole, but its a zipper merge, let the traffic merge instead of speeding up. He should have been professional and just let the asshole merge instead of causing an accident that he is technically at fault for and now delayed and slowing everyone down behind him.
Boy that's the truth
I could never be a truck driver. Man, these guys are patient!!
There are asshole truck drivers just like those in autos.
Not patient enough to yield 1 cm to let another vehicle in, though.
Might is right and yields for nothing.
@True Aussie: And, why should they? It doesn't matter how much room is in front of, or behind, the huge semi-truck, you just HAVE TO enter the freeway where the truck is. Your little Cadillac Escalade is far, far more manueverable than a semi, so YOU make the changes to merge safely! Not to mention, it's the law. Not might IS right, but, might FOR right.
@@mikejordan6650
Spoken like a true bellicose aggressive arrogant puerile yank.
I've held my semi licence since 1972.
(When did you get yours?!)
To date, NEVER had a collision (touch wood).
I don't presume to know American road rules, but I suspect they're designed to ensure safety and smooth traffic flow.
In ALL areas of life I've learned that my day goes MUCH smoother with cooperation and even just the tiniest bit of common sense.
I've learned, from watching others, that aggression begets aggression, passive or otherwise - and wastes a LOT of time.
Personally, I've got better things to do with my time.
I would prefer to 'lose' 1 second by working cooperatively to keep traffic flowing smoothly and pleasantly than to lose a whole day while your squished Cadillac is extricated from under my trailer and your dead body is carted off to the morgue.
But then, I'm crazy like that.
JOOI - what the fuck does 'might FOR right' mean?!
We are patient. But it's really just a sense of self-preservation. We don't really want to hurt you guys the paperwork takes forever to fill out
I drove a truck for 10 years before I went back to my trade as a plumber. I don't see so many assholes but I still deal with shit. These guys are the life blood of all nations and the true heroes of the pandemic, respect to them all.
I'm aware of break checking the way I'm aware of Walmart, even tho I'm an Ossie. It's never happened to me after 45 yrs driving & I've never witnessed it happening. I'm certain it does though. I love these videos. 😊
That dude confronting the guy blowing his air horn was a lot nicer than I would of been
Would Have* nothing speaks as loud as someone's orthography :)
Especially at 1am
No doubt! I woulda been PISSED! Lol!
That’s how you get a beating
Oh I would have been swinging
The stupidity of some people is staggering. Vehicles are lethal weapons
3 months behind the wheel of a truck is like a lifetime of driving a car.
@Guy Number 1 I highly disagree. Trucks are much more complicated to drive than cars therefore a steeper learning curve therefore you are forced to learn more faster
Ex-truck driver here. Driving a truck made me be a much more observant driver because people in cars have this insane ideal that a truck: straight truck or semi, can stop on a dime! Why that's in their heads, idk! But when I drove a truck, I had to keep my eye out for cars ALL the time. (there are a few of those truckers that have this ideal. "I'm not dyin' for some stupid-ass driver. I'm in a truck, the worse I might get is a broken legs, but I will not put my life in danger for someone elses stupidity. You get in my way, I'll just run you over!"
No kidding, and he said that while sitting at a bar drinking whiskey shots before crawling into his semi.
People in cars need to educate themselves about "all" the blind spots a truck and semi has, and to avoid them, or get out of them as soon as safely possible. Three cars can hide right behind a semi rear. Motorcycles even worse, because they're so much smaller than a car. "BLIND SPOTS". As for the trucker and the "fat, burger eatin' woman". . . .that would be a judgment on my part on the burger. However, that weird speed up and steered her van right into the trees, makes me suspicious that she might of had ideals of fraud in mind. I wouldn't have gotten out. I didn't cause nothing, camera showed everything, I would have just went on by. The trucker was a nice guy to check.
@Guy Number 1 im a current truck driver in Australia who drives triple road trains, that's 52m long and 120 ton in weight. Now I know this is bigger and heavier than anything you can drive in America (assume you are American because you call it a tractor). Im telling you that my driving skills increased exponentially from driving trucks especially when you start adding multiple trailers on. All of a sudden you pay attention to everything around you because you have to. Also you can literally do anything in a car nearly and 99 times out of 100 be alright. When you weigh 120ton you need to take stopping distance into account a lot more since you takes several hundred meters to come to a stop. If you still disagree that's fine, ill maintain my opinion based on my own personal experience driving the biggest trucks in the world.
@@dougiedog998 they run triples in parts of the US.
Amen to that. People think it's easy until......it's not.
The Winnipeg, Canada driving video had the best music!! 🤘
4:05- That tough guy who stopped in the road and risked causing a huge accident should have lost his door.
He should have lost alot more... ALL these idiots should have lost alot more.
Reading my mind
Just what I was thinking
Should have been arrested with loss of driving privileges for a year plus community service and probation for two years plus five points for blocking a roadway..
And his license
"Then you should check, before gettin on the air horn. Thank you for waking me" 😂 So polite.
i could not have kept myself as calm as that driver. he's a legend
@@iliandocx8392 He's just a pro =) Happy new year!
That one really pissed me off. Depending on the day, if I got woken up like that I couldn't get back to sleep, and then I'd be tired the entire next day of driving, which really sucked balls.
Beeping thoose horns aint no joke man, a trucker came to my neighbourhood one time and couldnt find where he was gonna visit and beep his dame horn around 2AM waking up at least 40 famillies!!! i tought nuke was on is way LOL
The sarcasm was gold
This is why I am glad I retired. This Old Timer Truck driver can tell you there was a time when we truck drivers looked out for the smaller vehicles and helped them to merge when they needed it, “they needed it a lot” it’s not just a matter of curtesy it’s a matter of life and Death.
Loved having the trucker report the "insurance scammer" truck and having him get the ticket. Great job
Much respect to these truck drivers. I don’t know how in the world they keep their cool.
Because it’s their job, licence, and freedom on the line if they lose their cool
alot of them think it's their place to educate everyone on traffic laws though because they are at work and everyone else is driving to work
Some of them are assholes. The truck driver could have let the guy over.
It's very hard some days ... But I get by just with patience
I was told it's our job to protect the public and I took it very seriously for the 99% of good drivers out there. People make mistake and that's easy to forgive but when someone is a jerk on purpose, I have very little mercy in being open to hand to hand combat on the side of the road. Unfortunately, no takers yet.
I wouldn't have the patience to be a truck driver. Some of these guys I swear, instead of slowing down for them, I would put the pedal to the metal!
This is what I do when on a ramp: I accelerate to the speed of traffic. That way if I need to merge I can merge without any danger. If I'm slightly slower this stuff happens...
First dude has mad skills to avoid that hit that was amazing
When I saw the company name on the first truck clip. I was not surprised. Werner is terrible
That last guy was pretty chill for just having been woken up. I would have been furious.
He WAS furious. You can tell simply by how disdainful he was being. He's just experienced at holding it back lol
@@robinkara8866damn the old days were crazy asf. sounds fun
He was *_SOUTHERN_* angry. His speech said, "I know you're probably dumb, so let's talk. If you're reasonable, then this could educate you, but if you're not a reasonable person, then I promise a beating will follow."
@@wolfrainexxx Quite so
I was amazed 5-6 angry dudes didn’t appear with poles and wreck his truck. I’ve been in truck diners where even looking at someone is grounds for an all out brawl.
