^ i hate jacka**es that dont signal, especially when there's traffic. They dont realize that there is someone else 2 lanes over that might actually want that open spot too! "herp derp i'm just going to lazily switch lanes with complete disregard for anyone else on the road"

Shamed the TL in the video is an ABP TL.

how do you know they were on the phone? probably texting. i'm glad they didnt run under the truck, but some body damage might have taught this person a lesson he/she may not forget so easily.

I thought that TL was going to go farther into that truck. People that can't walk and chew gum at the same time shouldn't do this....

Gotta use the BT feature. More states are fighting against using phones while driving. Watching the video I can understand why.

Yes, my 04 has no bluetooth/handsfree. I think canadian TLs without navi didn't get bt in 04, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I remember seeing this video posted here a while back and it just blows my mind how stupid people can be. How in the hell does this person not see a huge friggin RED tractor trailer right next to them? WTF LOL. Even if they are distracted talking, or texting or whatever, you should be able to still see something the size of a house, thats loud as shit, and RED of all colors right next to you...like literally less than two feet. I dont get it. F'ing idiots out there.
