Seriously!

What say you?  Round abouts 10k damage to the truck?

more like 40 to 50K if he tore up the under carriage, steering, or drive train. We used to joke about Swift and J.B. Hunt drivers back in the day. It was well deserved.

Props to the guy who helped him out instead of filming for 5 minutes.
A drunk driver will run a stop sign. A stoned driver will stop until it turns green.

   Very inexperienced driver. Like others have said he could have backed up a bit where the road was wider and made that U-turn.
       I hold a Class A CDL license and have seen some bad drivers. Some very large companies don't pay very well and once a driver gets some experience they are gone to a better carrier. So they keep suckering in these truck driving school graduates and putting them in big rigs. Then the pay scale is so low they have to race around and take chances just to try to make a living.

USA Truck. Hiring any idiot that can figure out how to start a truck since 1986!
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
