is there any vehicle that would survive this?
another truck
Any Armored Personnel Carrier should be fine
my silverado would, because i'd just chuck it off the road and avoid it entirely then casually get back on the road and continue on my way.
>>28686973Looking at the sides of the road, pretty much any car would be able to do that without suffering any damage.Maybe the tires would kick up some gravel or the front lip would get slightly scuffed, but that's expected wear
>>28686977nah you can't tell from this angle. there's probably a ditch on the opposite side which is the one you'd end up yeeting yourself off of. enough to deploy airbags at worst, get you stuck at best.
Why is seemingly every professional driver a drooling room tempertaure IQ moron.If someone does something for a living they're usually decent at that task.Yet I constantly see truck drivers being the opposite of it, risking the their life and the life of everyone within a half mile radius from them just to save a few seconds of timeWhat makes this profession such a magnet for retards?
>>28686988>If someone does something for a living they're usually decent at that taskWhy is everything so shitty then?
>>28686944a vehicle with an 8 point roll cage
>>28686944Another shitdeep pooprateek shitter?
>>28686988The only skill you need is the ability to pass a driving test - a test that is done in ideal conditions - and not be a wanted criminal. A lot of truck drivers in this country got their license for free while in the army, which is even less relevant to real world road conditions. Bare in mind van and taxi drivers are people who could not pass this test.
>>28687025It looks like Europe so it'll be Sandu Drunku who was already booking his flight back home mid crash.
>>28686944Ask Stuntman Mike.
>>28686988Trucker here and 1m safe milesIt's got a very low barrier of entry now that all trucks practically drive themselves. Automatic transmissions, nanny tech and more radars than most fighter jets have made it to where literally all you have to do is hold the wheel all day and not hit anything.The problem is now that all of the idiot filters have been removed and any schmuck with a pulse can get behind the wheel which is why things like this are commonplace now. We had some Somali peanut head who got pulled in for a drug test at the company I haul for and he handed our security guy a piss bottle because he thought the difference between a drug screen and a drug test was what you piss in.The other problem is that companies have been pushing rates down by hiring cheap migrant labor and skirting every labor law they can which pushes out experienced guys like me who won't haul that cheap shit and most of the old guard left and either worked local or just straight retired and quit trucking altogether. I'm working on getting out now, I make less than I made when I started 11 years ago and that doesn't factor inflation, the actual rate per mile has been lower since I was a greenhorn.
Normgroids are so dumb. All they can think to do is stand on the brake. I would have been in that ditch. I've been blown off the road or forced to swerve into the ditch off the highway a number of times and ditches like that are designed to have traffic run off onto them.
>>28687065noooooo anon, you NEED a lifted truck as >>28686973 said or your car will explode on the spot
>>28686980rolling in a ditch beats fuxking dying bro
>>28686944Woah this happened today? Where?
>>28686980Nah, it looks similar to that webm of the guy who fell asleep in a Mustang, tore up the adjacent field and fence, and got back on the road with naught but a bent fender from hitting a fence pole and a ruined soft top from barbed wire
>>28687044looks like Romania
>>28686944
>>28687086dialate.>>28687088obviously.>>28687096this is a fucking 20 foot cliff you retard, if you think a car could smoothly drive over this you need your fucking brain checked.
>>28687129NTA, but I'd still take my chance with the gully, than an out of control semi's flailing trailer. Worst that can happen is ending upside down, and bonking your head on the roof as you slip out of the belt.
>>28687204obviously.
>>28686944Slammed Miata would drift right under the truck
>>28686944Any vehicle that could've just driven off the road
>>28687051Same thing they did with obamacare and doctors. Make it so miserable the competent people all quit. Then when it all collapses, hope that this time people support marxism instead of national socialism.
>>28688021Yeah. Wonder how the Medicare changes will go. Hospitals here laying off staff next year. Anesthesia has been great but hospitals around here are starting to get h1b docs from Europe who get paid way less than Americans
>>28688012No merc owner would dare drive off tarmac
>>28687129Anyone with geolocation autism able to find this spot, would be interesting to get some more angles.
>>28686944I'm going into the field, fuck that. I had to drive into my neighbors lawn when some guy running from the cops down my street tried to hit me on purpose. I had only had the car for 4 days, I wasn't gonna let that shit happen.
>>28686944Jeeted!
>>28686944>>2868816547.2734077,26.5176881As you can see from Street View, there was a shitload of space that the car could have used on the right side of the road
>>28686944Damn, did he dieded?
>>28686944Yeah.
Horse.
>>28686944A Z3 has the offroad maneuverability to get out of the way.
>>28686944wonder how fsd would handle such an encounter
>>28688202That's a pretty good ditch, but I'd rather fuck my car up in a ditch than get ripped in half by a truck.
>>28686944M1 abrams
>>28688248It would probably drive right into it.FSD isn’t very smart and it ignores a lot of “out of the ordinary” conclusions to avoid false positives. You wouldn’t want it slamming on the brakes going around a highway curve because it mistook something on the side of the road for a stopped car, so it just… ignores it.It’s not going to be able to identify a wall of truck heading towards it as anything that it should do anything about.
>>28687129This is the point where I would react and steer my vehicle to the right and off the road. It doesn't look like a "20 foot cliff" to me.
How do you even do that on a straight, empty road?
>>28686988Imagine the drooling fucking retard who decides to drive for a living. That's the guy behind the wheel of the nig rig on the highway next to you.
>>28686944>is there any vehicle that would survive this?No passenger vehicle can survive an underride crash like that. That is just being Final Destination'd.
>>28688276I would rather deal with the occasional false positive than have my collision detection ignore a fucking semi trailer across the road. Granted, it would probably still only react the way this car did
>>28688287Looks like the hill curves down in such a way that it unloaded the rear wheels just enough that they lost traction and the trailer started to swing forwards while the truck was trying to brake.
>>28686944where do you think the body ended up?
>>28688405Skill issue
>>28686944honda civic
>>28686988It's become easier than ever to become a trucker as a result wages have collapsed and the competent drivers have all moved on to specialized cargo or left the industry altogether. All we are left with are retards
>>28686944Indian?
>>28687129I'll take my chances with the bunny slope over the flailing trailer of death thank you
>>28688438Not even close. Prop trailer jacked waaaay up for the movie.
>>28688236Remember when India was this silly place wiht spicy foods and wacky movies? Now it's all about poo.
>>28686944It isn't even that steep. Did his air brakes completely fail somehow? Totally bald tires? Ice we can't see?
>>28688444Gypsy maybe. Similar.
>>28688613wet road, slight decline, and incredibly incompetent trucker
>>28688027Tell me more
>>286882082 dead, one decapitated.
>>28688613Looks like just too fast for the conditions to me. What most never think about, and that includes truck drivers, is that the tire sizes and inflation are specced for a loaded truck. In the US the common interstate load is 80,000 lbs (that being the federal minimum maximum that most states adopted as their maximum). So 40 tons. Such a truck unloaded will be in the 14 ton range (@10 tons tractor and 4 tons basic-bitch trailer. So now you've got all this tire area but it's lightly loaded so the ground pressure is low, probably lower than a car's, which make it very easy to lose grip in poor weather condition. Further, Euros use super singles and those are known to be terrible with grip in adverse conditions which is one reason, among many, that independents refuse to use them. Factor in too that, as previously noted, everything has been driving out experienced drivers in favor of idiots that work cheap and you get a guy that's pushing it with a "light" truck in the rain and somebody (probably) dies.
>>28688613Driving too fast, braking too hard. Like 99% of crashes, driver is the cause.
>>28686944Just duck
>>28688432>dies from speed bump:3
>>28686944A 70s volvo would bore a hole through the cargo and continue on its way
>>28688652MiataIsAlwaysThe Answer
>>28686980i'm still ditching it
>>28687129
>>28689384that's basically a truck with that ground clearance.
>>28689438Because that's what roads looked like back then.
>>28686944>vehicleno>passengers in a vehicle>>28686947A semi or other class 6+ vehicle would probably do okay and keeping you alive.
>>28686944the one that just swerves into the grass instead of driving into the side of a truck
>>28688432
>>28686944yes, one driven by a person with the brains to go hard right into the field in order to not die.
>>28688356you poor poor wagecuck. Everything you enjoy in this world is currently being run and maintained by drooling idiots. You, likely are also a drooling idiot who just doesn't realize it. High intelligence doesn't determine what you do for a living, it only changes how safe and successful at it you are.
>>28688423nah, the driver was clearly distracted and crossed into the oncoming lane then panic over corrected causing the slide. You can see at the very start of the vid he drifted then the sharp panic cut back.
>>28688443this is true. I shifted to foodservice myself so I can spend more time getting exercise and less time driving while also getting paid a premium.>>28688613>>28688633>>28688672>>28688721start of the vid, he drifted into the oncoming lanes then you see the panic correction that caused the slide.
>>28689963If a correction causes a slide it means he was still going too fast for the conditions.
>>28687051I hope they ban California from issuing CDLs
