The semi was passing in the left and moved right when he cleared the slower traffic, the jeep is way out of line. Also lets talk about how stupid it is to play chicken with a semi
I'm a trucker and I've had this done to me a few times. These jerks should be arrested and charged to the fullest extent of the law. Lose their license for a couple years and jump through hoops to regain the PRIVILEGE to operate a motor vehicle Just like they do with drivers convicted of DWI. Then they can enjoy riding a bicycle to work or take the bus.
I don’t understand how can people do that! Is not a regular vehicle, is a semi that can literally turn your vehicle into scrap! I have so much respect for all truck drivers, specially after I almost got run over for trying to “win” at an intersection. After that I learn my lesson and respect you all very much for your job and for doing your best when stupid people like me disrespect you in anyway.
All three of the trucks should have put that jeep in the "cradle" and took him wherever they were going. Then whoever it was will learn to leave the truck's alone.
When I was a kid, I was traveling with Mom and sisters in hours of long heavy traffic for a number of trips we had to make - just us girls. Dad did heavy construction work and didn't like us in heavy traffic like that without a man, but he couldn't go for his work schedule., but we has a CB because of his work. One trip we shared some info with some truckers around us, and they really appreciated it, and when I told them the kind of work Dad did was why we helped them, they put us in the saddle out of respect for him. miles on down the rode, a guy came in off one of those axis roads and came right into our slot, Mom had a little trouble making the lateral move into the other lane to get out of the way of our car being clobbered broadside, they acted like they didn't even see. The truckers told us to get behind them for a few minutes and they put him in the cradle and edged him right off to the bar ditch. It was level and he was safe, they didn't try to wreck him - just gave him something to think about. They put us back in the cradle, but they never tried to make any move on us or anything, they just felt like Dad had taught us to respect and help them, and they treated us like they wanted their own family treated if they were on the highway without their own Man around to help them if anything happened. Dad was so proud of all his bragging about Truck Drivers and of how we behaved towards them, and how well they looked out for us for his sake, even though they'd never met him. He loved it. We did, too. Right at 50 yrs ago.
@@anonimous2451 Thank you. It was a good thing to experience, all of us felt like, we did a good thing and helped someone else, God was pleased and He returned it through those Truckers.
Only 1 problem with that solution.......unless the truckers are trying to KILL everyone in the Jeep, whether or not we personally wish it or not< , there IS an EMERGENCY LANE that almost ANY CAR can out accelerate a truck in. Therefore, If the trucker tries to stop the pass, he risks killing all occupants. If the vehicle is not being chased by a COP, then leave them alone and go about your day. Personally, I HAVE passed trucks in the emergency lane cause they were being huge pricks on the highway. A truck(er) should damn well know they back up a 2 mile line of faster moving vehicles cause they wanna pass another big rig doing 2 mph less than them. Taking 10 miles to pass another truck is just IRRESPONSIBLE Driving and STUPID. Be patient, pull over and SHARE the road instead of HOGGING the road. Seen this so many times on I-81 in Va and nearly killed by one asshole that wanted to do 80 in a big rig and couldn't STOP in time for a road emergency. Also on I-95 going thru NC and SC cause it is only 2 lanes there. Time for some Fiscal Funding to widen them roads like Ga and Va have done.
Nuh, any insurance company that saw that video would immediately drop that loser. A reckless driving citation gets you cancelled by most reputable insurance carriers. On secondary carriers, their rates instantly quadruple. If they choose to drive without insurance, they cannot renew their vehicle registration Without both, they're getting picked up and locked up.
I've run into alot of people who just don't care and drive to work without a license and if they get sent to jail its no problem for them cause their so used to it, and just don't give a shit. Local speed (anfitamine) addicts right here in Indiana.
Had a car do that to me in my truck in Atlanta. Called the cops, thankfully they actually showed up. Gave them the dash cam footage and they cited the driver for reckless driving
I give the Trucker a lot of credit for not giving that Jeep a little tap. Or he could have Cb’d a few friends... Since they are bigger than me, I stay out of their way. I would like all of us on the road to get to our destination in one piece. I’ve always said Truckers Rock! Think of whatever you buy, it gets to the store via a Trucker. Appreciate all they do and continue to do especially during this pandemic!
Gracie !! well said. people don't realize, that you cannot just walk down the path, to the outhouse, and do your natures call. IF YOU GOT IT, A TRUCK AND TRAIN, BROUGHT IT.....stupid people, 'nother thing...milk comes from a cow...
I imagine that before passing the videographer, this victim trucker probably "cut off" the Jeep driver, in order to pass the videographer's truck! It's just a guess, but I see it happen time after time after time. I travel a several miles of interstate almost every day, with two miles of it, a long, steep, 3 lane mountain climbing road! Each time I ascend this mountain, I find all three lanes blocked by tractor trailers, in spite of the large signs reading: "No Tractor Trailers in Left Lane!" The local small town cops ignore these violations, as well as both the County and State Law Enforcement, as they're profiling travelers seeking to stop those with large sums of cash on board! They of course "confiscate" all large sums of cash, because it "MIGHT BE" meant to purchase illicit drugs, several states south of here! I occasionally see southbound cars pulled over, being searched by a Cop from a dead city of only a few hundred people.
The driver of that jeep needs to go to prison. The charges can range from, Reckless driving, Reckless endangerment, Risking a catastrophe, Felony road rage, and insurance fraud.
@@JeepTJWheelin I'm a big Jeep fan myself, I owned a 1983 Jeep CJ-5 and it was the last year they made them. Some of the parts wore out prematurely and the body rusted badly, but I had a fiberglass body put on it and I loved that Jeep.
@@Counselor77 The Jeep pre Wrangler and 2 dr Wranglers ('41 - '06) are the best vehicles ever made imo. I couldn't imagine driving anything else. O|||||||O 🇺🇸Only in a 2 dr🇺🇸 '41 - '06
@Speed Buggy First off, my favorite Jeeps are the TJ and the CJ-7. I was never a fan of the YJ's, but outside of the square headlights, they are good Jeeps. I'll take a YJ over any '07 - current heep.
+basspig Russia is completely different than the US, they still look out for truck drivers and treat douchebag drivers how they should be treated. In the US, the douchebags and criminals can fuck with you all day long as they stay just inside the letter of the law.
You need to look at it like there may be innocent passengers, including children, in the car. And is ramming him really better than what he did? Would that make you feel manly? He was wrong but the attitude it's okay to ram him is criminal intent. And fucking stupid. And don't say it doesn't happen. I've seen the videos!
+Barb Wallace True. In most cases, the idiot drives solo, but consider that sometimes ramming them can cause them to veer into someone else's lane. It's just too risky. Besides, if they didn't hit you, all you lost was a few seconds and a few ounces of fuel that you will burn to make up for braking hard. But in an 18-wheeler, the stakes are higher when someone cuts you off. Not long ago, on a state highway up here, a 16 year old girl cut off a gasolene tanker on a state highway, causing the tanker to flip on a bridge and explode. The bridge had to be replaced at taxpayer's expense. The kid did face arrest, but not much happened. The truck driver narrowly escaped death.
As a local heavy haul driver in Atlanta I deal with this pretty often, usually it’s someone cutting me off or pulling out in front of me, I give them the benefit of the doubt and back out of it maybe taps some breaks it’s all apart of traffic , but if you cut me off intentionally and start hitting breaks especially like this guy you can kiss your ass good bye son you going for a fk’n ride , won’t be the first and definitely not the last , dash cam is rollin and so am I
I had a dude in a Silverado get pissed at me because he thought I was intentionally blocking him from merging onto the interstate. He couldn’t see the car beside me riding about 1/2 up my trailer. The car stayed beside me because I am pretty sure he couldn’t see the ‘Rado trying to merge on the interstate. The idiot merging actually rode beside me for about 1/2 mile in the emergency lane before accelerating and passing me. He then had the nerve to brake check me several times and slow to about 30 mph. I am sure a lot of my fellow drivers are familiar with the area of I-75 S around Perry, GA and just how much time Georgia State Patrol spends sitting on bridges looking for unbelted drivers then calls ahead to awaiting troopers with the vehicle description on who to pull over. Lucky for me, there was one on a bridge ahead of me, doing just that! He saw the entire episode take place. Needless to say, the little truck was pulled over and I hope he got his butt handed to him for being so stupid.
Yep...Have a couple semis pass...one in front of the jeep, one beside him, then slow down. But instead of beating the crap out of him...have one call the highway patrol and play the video. Then video the jeep being towed.
my husband drives truck and he has watched people get beat down just as you described ..truckers are trying to earn a living the same as everyone else...with out trucks america and any other country for that matter just stops ...i saw a sticker once that said "if you got it a trucker brought it "...i'm glad this driver was on his game ...
I have a cam in my truck: "Well officer, you see here in the video, he break checked me after first cutting me off so that's why he is smeared all over the road and his jeep is in shambles."
WifeBTR123 nope, but people who zip around in their four wheelers and act as if they think a truck can and should yield to them just because they are faster are a bigger problem.
+WifeBTR123 got a question for you what did you eat drink or clothes did you wear today? Those truck drivers had those items on the truck at one time or another less you do without the "thanks". Which I believe there are
i couldnt be a truck driver, my first instinct when the jeep crossed over was to tell the driver to hit the gas. id be picking a few jeeps out of the mudflaps.
So... he was so upset about the trucker taking too long to move over... that he wasted everyone's time and became a hazard. Basically he had to rush and get in front so he could proceed to slow down. Some logic right there
They count on the fact that truck drivers are more conscientious drivers than they are. It gives them the feeling of being a man for just a moment, of being in control of _something_ , a feeling which they can’t get in any other area of their life.
Truckers are often victims of insurance fraud. People go in front of them and brake to try to make it seem like its their fault. All truckers (and probably all drivers) need dashcams for this reason.
there so in a hurry that they have to tailgate you BUT they have time for that bullshit. What most people don't understand is that most truck;s not all have goveners that limit how fast they go
they feel they are out of control....they need to control everybody...they are not in a hurry at all...it's all about control..if someone really is in a hurry they would speed up as soon as possible
These jerks don't appreciate you truckers. You are the guys who bring us our needs. They spoil it for us who really love and appreciate you. But I hope you guys know there are good people like me who can't stand these dirtbags for what they do to you. Thank you all for the hours you put in and hope your rides are safe and happy ones.
Don't kid yourself pal.ive seen truck drivers do exactly the same thing to other truckers.it all comes down to no respect and everybody in the biggest hurry they can put themselves in.and I'm a truck driver
truckers truck because they're too dumb to find another profession. they pull out in front of you going 30mph slower and then are annoyed when you're upset with them. f truckers.
That's been done to me so many.many times in thirty years of driving truck. I retired last year, and two days before I did, a twit did this to me again. So I thought, what the hell, he couldn't believe it when I didn't slow down he got real scared. Hey, after thirty years and retiring in two days, bad timing on their part and I owed it to myself.
My last day of truck driving, I was literally a mile away from the last exit off the interstate to the terminal. A car started messing with me, trying to brake check me on the fairly steep incline. The first time he did it, I slowed down. The second time, I just pushed him up the hill, off the ramp, and went on my way. Never heard a thing about it.
Yes very upsetting but hate it when trucks do the pass at .5 mph faster than the truck they are passing and it takes many minutes to pass on damn truck. Even you guys seem upset at the operation as form other vids here. of trucks passing others doing it on the shoulder.
Angry or not this behavior is all to common involving semi's. It's easy to blame a truck driver for the stupidity of others on the road. God bless dash cams. Everyone stay safe over the road.
The way I figure it the highway is basically a truck driver's office. Whenever there's a truck nearby I try to give them as much room as I possibly can because A) They're the professional drivers, not me, B) They get enough crap from idiots like that jeep, and C) The worst case scenario is I end up dead and he has to do some paperwork. None of those lead me to believe hassling truck drivers is justified or wise. EVER.
i help out my fellow drivers going home on my puny little car. XD kinda act like their own pilot car following them for a while. of course )_) no, i know better to not get too close. i like seeing in front of me. Any other trucker reading this. Thank you for your service, dedication, and all you do out there! Drive safe!
All trucks should have video cameras for their own protection. Minding my own business one day cruising along with a 32 ft trailer & pickup I saw a guy watching for people to turn on their signal then he would zip up beside them flashing lights & blowing horn to prevent them from changing lanes. He did this several times. When it came time for me to change lanes I got ahead of him a few car lengths I signaled as required and quickly got over the line before he could get beside me. Watching him in my mirror go off onto the dirt, priceless !
+B Ann I was getting tailgated in my old '69 elCamino in bumper to bumper traffic running 60 (Limit was 55.) coming up Bragg BLVD towards Spring Lake by a Ford Explorer. Nice thing abut the way it was geared. It wouldn't shift for 3nd until 80 if I held it down. I dropped it in 2nd. All he/she saw was the Trailer hitch on the back and the Tank Trail beside the road.
Definitely agree with you! I'm new in the reducing business. I drive a company truck and use my old galaxy S4 as a dashcam. It feels nice knowing that if some idiot chose to slam on his brakes on front of me, I have the ability to run him over and get away with it. Also, you taught that idiot a lesson. Good job!
+Tami Potirala man I hope you never will end up in an accident because of idiots like these drivers you are describing. I really hate this drivers my self. every time I drive a legal speed with a lot of free space in front off me, what do they decide... yeah to cut me with 1 meter. fuck them....
Dead Set Keith, I reckon most Aussies aren't into playing silly buggers with a semi. It's a bit like the chook fetching the axe for the cockie to have it head cut off
I’ve seen truck drivers take 10 miles side by side with no intention to let anyone pass. A little game the young and stupid MFs play. I’ve passed on the shoulder at least 3 times because the dickhead operators think it’s funny to monitor the speed of everyone else. Werner trucks only have signage on the drivers door. When they break the law by blocking lanes they stay in the left lane so the information can’t be reported. Their drive- safe hotline for reporting bad driving has a Maxi Pad wearing clown who’s easily entertained by talking smack on the phone. When you show up at their office they sound different from when they insulted you on the phone. So hello for me.
I've also been around some pretty bad truck drivers, I've had my car damaged by exploded truck tires (never does the trucker stop) and from my experience working shipping at a steel mill, a good portion can't speak English, like they speak another language can't speak English. I respect them, I try to give them room when merge over and I don't get to upset if they go slow. it's possible the driver of the jeep wanted to start trouble but we don't know what happened before this, the truck driver could have cut the jeep off or perhaps was lollygagging in the left lane.
depending on where the tire was blown out and weight of truck, etc. sometimes they cannot feel the tire has been blown out for miles. So i have heard anyways
Jeremy McAdams so I've been told, though when the car behind you goes all over the road, flashes its lights and blasts the horn before pulling over... you'd think they would stop. last time I had to get a new headlight assembly because a big ole chunk of rubber and band came off a truck and bounced up into my car :/ $320 that cost me.
The problem is, there are to many barmpots who think that all people who put better clothes on after work, are simple-minded. So the dumbest bank clerk who, amongst others, cleans the trash cans considers himself superior to a bloke who rides his own ( and paid) big rig.
People disrespect tractor trailers. They drive hours and hours to deliver food and other products and shit like this happens?! If there's a tractor trailer in front of you and there is no one in the lane next to it, then just go around the truck and mind your own business, don't just disrespect those truck drivers. It's that simple.
I see you posted this 5 years ago. You're so right, truckers deliver food and everything else, and people don't treat them with the respect they deserve. Now that Covid has hit, the shelves are half empty because they don't have enough truck drivers. Maybe people will start giving truckers the respect they so deserve? Those truckers were all driving perfectly in the video, and the one gave notice he was moving over with his blinker. Then he made a smooth transition. He was very safe. I'm really confused as to why the Jeep started messing with him?
Older driver here - husband and I drive from the East Coast to Colorado several times a year to see kids ( love it out there!). I have a lot of friends who won’t drive the interstates anymore because they’re afraid of all the trucks. I tell them that the trucks are the last things they need to worry about, but it’s probably good that they’re not getting out there, because the truckers are scared of them!
Jeep buddy thinks how dare that semi use the (passing lane) to get by a slower semi and here I am a left lane bandit speeding and driving in the passing lane like it's my own private lane and that big truck got infront of me, so he needs brake checking because I am a moron and have a death wish.
On that roadway, trucks are only allowed in the right lane. This is a common problem here in Indy. Trucks are fined left and right for blocking the left lanes.
The truck was using the passing lane to pass the other truck and then returned to the right. The Jeep then did the same but proceeded to block the truck from passing. If I were the truck driver I would be concerned that the guy was setting me up for a hijacking.
DashCam Videos Yeah, still doesn't mean he should brake check and not only endanger his own life but the life of EVERY vehicle close by behind him. That jeep is a menace, not the truck driver
the jeep driver doesn't realize the semi had to pass the other slower semi before he could get over. nothing personal, until.. please give semi drivers ample room and predictable signaling.. it's rewarding getting 4way flashed.
I personally have just gone ahead and hit people that have done that to me. Its called improper stopping. People think that if you hit them in the rear that its automatically your fault. That's untrue. I have rammed four people while driving an 18 wheeler that did the very same thing this guy did. All four times their insurance paid me and in one case the lady was ticketed on top of that.
That’s less common than you think. When you’re out there on a strip of 100+ miles, passing someone at 5mph makes the difference, usually that slower truck doesn’t understand how to maintain one speed. It’s more common for cars to pass slower than trucks, and then get right in front of you.
Jake Holm I had a Fiat pull this with me one day. The difference was that I was in the left lane anticipating the end of an express toll way in less than 1 mile and there was literally no other traffic. What really irritated me is that the little shithead got off the highway at the exit before mine. (Right lane exit, btw. He didn't even need the left lane.) ~78,000 lbs vs ~2,400 lbs... As much as you want to just run their ass over, you don't want to kill anyone.
Oh the truck is definetly at max load. You can tell by the position of the rear trailer wheels. The heavier the load, the farther to the rear the trailer wheels will be to balance the weight.
msgsgt It's actually the other way around....the tandems slide towards the tractor to move weight towards the front of the trailer. Most states have a bridge law that prevents you from running near Max with your wheels all the way back. Generally, anything close to 80k is more towards the middle, but honestly, it's pretty hard to tell unless you're the one pulling it. Just thought id throw that in... Also, IDK what happened here, but my guess is...the Jeep got angry that a big truck passing other big trucks clogged up the passing lane that he wanted to fly down the highway in, and he got pissed. Sadly, Its not uncommon.....2¢ from a Professional driver....🤗
+George Adams 5 years? Hell, I'd prefer to see him never get his license back. He clearly has demonstrated that he cannot operate a motor vehicle safely.
steve var I wasn't referring to this driver in particular. I meant that if everyone had to drive a truck for one year OTR they would see things differently and maybe, just maybe the roads would get a lot safe. But I highly doubt it would make a difference because as much as I hate the way four wheelers drive, it pretty obvious we have enough retards already in the trucking industry and we don't need anymore. Sorry you thought I meant otherwise.
What's the point of this behaviour? The Jeep driver puts not only his/her own life, but also the lives of others in danger. Sometimes I get the feeling that these people want to die.
So he's upset that the truck was in the left lane, even though the truck was rightfully passing. So if the Jeep was in such a hurry that the truck was too slow, why does he all of a sudden have time to do those dumb @$$ shenanigans? He clearly has no reason to be upset because he has all the time in the world to get himself killed.
Bad Idea. What if there is an innocent child in the car? The child has no power to influence what their douchenugget parent do. Easy thing to say until one day you kill a child. Think about it. How would YOU like living with that knowledge for the rest of your days. I would not like it a bit. It haunts you day and night.......................Think about what you do, do not react emotionally without logic and common sense.
@@anonimous2451 maybe the Jeep driver shouldn't have been stupid enough to play a game of chicken with a truck that probably weighs 15 times what she does. That stupid Karen needs complete retraining on how to drive properly.
Nope. not if it was an accident that was the jeep drivers fault. If he cut the semi driver off close enough that he couldn't see it it would be the jeep drivers fault
Having some awareness of the mass of the truck and the laws of physics, I pay great respect to these vehicles in motion and give them plenty of room. The driver of the Jeep was the easily distracted kid who paid no attention in science class.
Great example of why I quit trucking. It wasn't the long hours, weeks from home, or mediocre pay. It was a-hole idiots like this risking lives for no reason at all. The truck moved over after a clean pass. If the Jeep jerk was really in a hurry, he/she/it had plenty of open road ahead.
Do you think the Jeep did that for no reason? We agree he did not. What do you think the reason was? He block traffic by driving side by side with another truck instead of speeding up to let traffic pass.I've seen it SO many times!!!
Not justifying anything but that is why you have truckers that just dont care. You deal with a few morons like that jeep and you figure to heck with them!
The reckless trucker cut him off before, he deserves it. I have no tolerance for retarded fat slobs endangering everyone else’s lives in those 18 wheelers.
Attempted hijacking ''i feared for my life so i took defensive measures and squished the threat'' Yeah I know ya can't do that but damn it, should be allowed.
yes you can, make sure you have a dash cam so in court you have proof that the other driver move in front of you and checked brakes so you couldn't stop
spudrubble The driver of the jeep could be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon If the semi hit him because of this incident and depending on how many people in the truck, add 1 assault per person to the jeep drivers charges. It's a felony on the federal level. Prison time, not jail. This goes for ANY vehicle doing this out on the road to another. Report if you see this shit.
spudrubble why can’t you do that? If I was judge I could see how it was possible they were trying to get you to stop, and you wouldn’t know if they had a weapons to steal your load, and you had to run them off into a ditch and drove around 4-500 more miles to complete your shift just to make sure they weren’t following you and couldn’t catch up, and couldn’t use your phone while driving to call 911 so you just had to keep driving... that’s believable lmao
This is why my man is on the Verge of quiting his job 30 + years where or better yet how did he get the Jeep 1) trucker 2) were did he get the gas a trucker 3) well I think you all get what a mean ..
WTH did that truck driver do to the Jeep? Too often drivers are just downright disrespectful to truck drivers........give em room, let em over, help em out, they'll remember you down the highway should you need to get over. Good gawd........
I have a feeling that once companies start putting cameras in more trucks, it will make drivers a lot safer and also result in a lot more crashes at the same time. now that I sometimes drive with a camera, I'll be a lot less likely to slam on brakes when someone does something like this. I'll move over and hit the cruise. if they jerk in front of me and try to make me rear end them - there won't be any "my word against his" and the other guy saying I came up behind him and rammed into him. the video will show what happened. the other driver will be charged for causing the accident and our company will be suing them for scratching our truck. and the other driver might show up to court in a body cast.
+chieftp Or you could just buy your own, this way when you retire or switch job careers you can take your camera with you when you go. If company says otherwise, take that receipt, make a copy, and shove that fucking thing in their faces and tell em to fuck off. Without the shove paper in face and telling them to fuck off, I do not endorse that since you could be arrested for assault lol.
***** I usually err on the side of caution to avoid any wreck if possible, but if someone does something as blatantly defiant and intentional as mr jeep here, well - I won't go out of my way to jam on the brakes nor throw my load around.
I would honestly like to know why trucks wait until the last minute to pull out in front a car and then go a1/4 of a mile faster than the truck they are passing taking 10 minutes to pass. If trucks went the speed limit - 55 in CA - you all would not have this problem.
And the road belongs to everybody.because you always gotta be in a big dambed hurry to get no where important is not my fault.and truckers pass at those speed because that's where their employers set the speed limit at and even they can catch and pass a truck.learn to have some patience before some chipping has to scrape your rotten carcass off an o erpass cuz you got too pissed and fucked up while following a big truck passing another truck,the drivers of which are just trying to do their jobs while having g to deal with immature drivers such as yourself.if you don't like getting caught behind trucks,then leave earlier in the day
As an aspiring trucker(just got my permit). This is the type of stuff that scares me. Do people not understand that these types of vehicles are a very different beast. Brakes will fail once they reach a certain temp, an emergency maneuver in response to that type of behavior can end lives, and most importantly these trucks are heavy and will crush anything in its path without effort. Seriously people THINK!
rust8infinite I do agree with you, to a point. Yes, brakes will fail once they reach a certain temperature but not in a situation like this. When you get brake failure is usually hauling a heavy load down a decent hill riding your brakes. The roots is flat here. Even slamming on your brakes isn't going to cause them to heat up enough to fail just due to temperature. How I know is I've been driving for several years already and I am also a certified driving instructor for tractor trailers. For the most part you are right though.
ok rust , lets for arguments sake admit that truck drivers are the worst human beings on the planet . there . you got your way . having said that who in their right mind would break check 100,000 pounds of metal ?
Rust8,drove one in 57 and part of 58, doctor advised me to find a job where I did not sit so much. You find people that don’t realize the weight of a truck but then a trucker sees some sights. I saw everything from naked drivers to couples in foreplay,people trading blows in actual fights and dogs sitting in the drivers lap.If it happens truckers have seen it.
Pali That was my first observation in this video as in most of the other ones I see on you tube. It says a lot about just how safe drivers THINK they are driving. 1 second away is a dangerous place to be.
He could have waited farther back. Even though nothing happened because of his close range the potential is always there if you're too close. It is a high-risk situation when you choose to be in that position. You are at the mercy of the vehicle in front of you. You don't know what they are thinking, doing, or what they are perceiving. It's a crap shoot when you drive like this and it is the unspoken biggest danger on the roads. Collisions don't just HAPPEN, they occur 98% of the time because one or more drivers refuses to lose a little speed to make a situation safe. When one truck is going 1/2 of a mile per hour faster than another one, and they attempt to pass it, it can be a long drawn out process that really doesn't get them anywhere. Too many drivers (all drivers) refuse to slow down for safety. In this clip all of the trucks are following too close. It isn't that anyone is waiting to pass, it is that they do this constantly. We professionals should know better than to travel any distance in that precarious position.
but can it distort the time needed for the road marks to go from the front truck to the following one ... no this is also how you evaluate safety distance the proper way, by timing the gape between you and the one you follow!
What we don't know is whether this truck driver cut off that jeep first? Trucks are constantly cutting off left lane vehicles because they want to pass a slower truck in front of them. They cut you off make you slam on the brakes (sometimes almost driving you off the shoulder) and then you have to wait several minutes to pass the truck they are passing that you would have done in 10 seconds. I'm not saying big rig driving is easy, (I've driven bigger trucks shy of big rigs and know its not), and I know it's very helpful when fellow traffic helps them out, but it would be nice if they gave the same courtesy they expect on the road to the smaller, faster vehicles! I have driven across the country more than 15 times each way, I know what I am talking about! This Jeep driver seems to have a beef with the truck....and it very likely occurred before they made it in front of this camera. My guess, that truck previously cut the Jeep off!
I think rigs should block that Jeep in and keep him there for MILES! He's an insurance case. Call the police about his tag number and Sue him if he damages the rig. Keep intentional distance. Slow down and let him eventually get tired. If necessary run him off the road and rid the world of that maggot!
How are 3 Semis (who don't know each other) going to block a JEEP and "run him off the road" . . . it's a JEEP ! They are known to go off-road. Unless they manage to pin him on a bridge and COMPLETELY block him AND all other traffic . . .
Watching stuff like this makes me so mad. I have always been mindfull of big trucks and showed them every courtesy. Like at night flashing my lights to let them know it's ok to pass me as I'm going slower for whatever reason. Not only that, without them The store shelfs would be empty.It's easy to forgive a trucker for being an occasional jerk with the crap they have to put up with......Stay safe!! 💖 🚚 💖
Professional truck drivers are just that. Every courtesy should be extended to them when driving. I drive 50000 miles every year for work, and I have never seen unprofessional driving behavior from professional drivers. Cars, light trucks and especially motorcycles, oh hell yea I've seen the craziness stuff imaginable!
I drive about 210 miles a day in my job and at the end of the day I am beat. It’s hard to imagine how tired a pro-driver is at the end of their day and then to have a jerk like this playing games, how do these pros keep from ‘getting even’?
+Hacker07Gaming Uh, NO. That's a POS wannabe. They probably couldn't afford a Hummer. Most of us a decent. Jeeps aren't fast enough to be fucking with people like that.
What you do there is get on the horn with the guy in front...You pass the both of them and then give the ass-wipe in the Jeep a little brake check. Funny how quickly 4 wheelers get the message when you have a couple of big rigs working together.
I always always allow ample room for truck drivers and business vehicles truckers bring us our goods cable companies install our phones tv etc., the post man delivers our mail and so on and so forth also I will yield slow down when I see a turn signal when I see someone wanting to merge in our out so many folks don’t and it’s frustrating just let them in or out so it slows you down for a few seconds the main thing is it keeps everyone safe it’s a no brainer
that jeep and the driver would off look like shit if a fatal accident should occur. it's people like that, that would freak out if truck drivers stop delivering goods. understand that the food you eat, the cloths, the house, and the Cars you drive made its way on to u by a truck driver. the world is moved by truck drivers delivering the products people consume everyday yet they don't get enough respect on the road.
That truck driver was a nice guy..I would have floored it and gave him the deisel horn..if he moved or sped up..great..if not he would have become a grill ornament. What a first class asshole!
I know this was back in 2014, but 'this very sh-t still goes on today'. It's like Lawelessness on the Open Road. No One to Put a Stop to It. Every summer I drive a 40' Class A Motorhome for fun, & I go through the same thing. Just driving along, minding my own business, going along the right speed for traffic & weather/wind conditions & safe speed. And here comes somebody that wants to prove a point because I'm not doing 80mph!
I had the same thing happen to me driving my truck but I went ahead and hit the guy and when the police viewed my dash cam the driver of the car got 3 tickets and I was on my way down the road after downloading the video file to the officers police lap top for him to use in court in case the dumb driver wanted to challenge the tickets !!
@@arizonadroner5164. Love it! I think the proliferation of dash cams, especially in trucks will eventually make these idiots realise they aren't going to get away with the old " He just ran up my arse ocifer " and these sorts of idiots just can't get away with this stupidity anymore.
I am guessing the Jeep was hauling ass up the left lane and got mad that the semi switched lanes in front of him, causing him to slow down. If I had been in my pickup and had saw the Jeep driver do this, I would have sped up there and got in front of the Jeep and did the same thing to him. I bet the semi driver would have enjoyed that.
True story, my step father was driving down an interstate and this trucker saw that he was speeding and slowed him down, after he had gotten over the hill there was a highway patrol man sitting right there. So maybe that truck was trying to slow the ass whole behind the wheel.
Being that there are very few truly good drivers on the road, it is likely that each of you are ignorant, inconsiderate drivers yourselves and it is because of that, that you do not see much wrong with this, nor do you think that there should be consequences for your actions. While I see police catching people for going 5 over the limit, I never see them catch asshole drivers and that is where other drivers on the road should take responsibility. What is going to happen when a reckless driver hits and kills your parents? Is that what it takes to make you people understand the problem with all of these reckless drivers? If they cannot be brought to justice then they should at least be dealt with commensurately. Also, don't say to call the police because I have had to do that more than once and they never caught up with the dangerous driver. Now go ahead and post an ignorant response as I am sure you will.
And advocating vigilante justice is your solution? You're woefully ignorant, advocating anarchy as you have. You're probably the type who goes and beats on the father of the kid who has beaten your own son after your precious seedling has been bullying the kid to the breaking point. Get a cam or two and submit the evidence to the police each time you report things. Oh, and grow up and become part of society in a positive way, please.
A similar situation happened here where I live. The guy misjudged and cut in front of the truck to close,not only did he go to the hospital he was fined and lost a law suit filed by the both the driver and his company.
I'm a Canadian Trucker and this garbage even happens here. LOTS!! Sometimes I even end up going to pass another semi and HE will speed up to try to prevent me from passing. He was going slow for ages. I caught up from a few miles back. Then I go to pass and THAT is when he speeds up..... 😒 Then I tuck in behind and he slows down again. F___ing A-holes.
Kinda seems like there might have been more to this, the way the Jeep was being aggressive, like he was trying to get the semi to pull over, as a former driver, maybe the semi driver fucked up earlier and cut the Jeep off.
That's when the trucker needs a dash cam, and IMMEDIATELY CALL THE POLICE! I see that kind of crap and worse, all the time, as I drive a big truck as well.
+Miles-From-Home I know what you mean! I do what I can to let trucks know I'm a good driver and looking out for them (i.e If there's enough room for me to change lanes, but not enough for them to stop, i stay in the same lane, etc.) I respect CDL operators for all the shit they have to put up with.
There was a time when the truckers would have boxed that idiot for that. With three trucks putting you in a squeeze it can change your outlook and attitude a little...,
Agreed. We see lots of young smart alecks driving new jeeps here. They seem to always be the ones doing stupid things. By the way the outside walls and roof are finally repaired. Now for the inside. We sure will gain a lot of space with the inner walls removed. Should have done it a long time ago. How's the weather there in BC? It is hot avg. 92 for the past and next week. But the humidity is only 89%. Wish there were a ocean near by.
Gerald Allen Good to hear that things are getting back on track for you. It's been good here - topping out at about 82F here in the valley. I helped some cyclists out yesterday up by a place called Lytton (in the Fraser canyon). It was 95F and they were going uphill..and had run out of water. They are doing a charity ride across Canada for Addiction recovery. I went into town for them and got them a case of water. They only have about 4100 miles to go.... I got myself a new car. The old '95 Nissan Pathfinder I have is getting too tired to be a commuter for me. I bought a '15 Nissan Micra SR...really nice little car - cheap and good on gas. That Lytton run got me about 44 mpg (5.8 L/100km). Not bad.
Gerald Allen I'm keeping my Pathfinder. It's too useful (and fun in the mountains) to get rid of. I have to give it some serious TLC though. Exhaust is rough and it needs some body work.
I bet I know why he did it.... Probably the third car hoping to get in front of the truck with his signal light on to pass, and the truck driver said NO WAY Jack....I 'm come'n out. Seen it a thousand times.
+Brian Toblerone yup, i dont think the jeep was mad because he had to follow the semi that whole time, he was mad because the semi pulled out infront of him first, then made him follow him. So in reality, the semi probably did cut him off, but two wrongs dont make things right! When i am on the road i always give the truckers lots of room, let them come in, etc. i can only imagine having to drive those trucks through stupid traffic and stupid drivers
+dynocompe You will notice the first three cars where all pretty close together which tells me that they where all in a hurry to get in front, then the semi. The jeep was just the fourth car in the bunch who was pissed off and was probably way back and gassed it. It's happened to me countless times. If I have my signal on and I am gaining on slower vehicles, I will do the same thing a lot of times depending the mood I'm in. I had one guy so determined, he took the shoulder to go around me and almost wrecked. I still remember his passenger standing up through the sun roof to give me the finger. LOL There are a lot of stupid drivers out there. Trucks are a little like trains, you don't want to lose speed if you don't have to. Everyone wanted to get past the first truck including the one filming. We really do appreciate the courtesy though.

That would be an enema he would never soon forget
Yep, straight up its ass.

The problem is that this happened in America. In Russia, the Jeep goes off a bridge or into a corn field.
Well said Vladimir Putin.
Vladimir Putin what? We don’t have cornfields?
In Russia no jeeps. Only glorious Lada
I've seen vids from over there where the truckers knock them off the road and keep on trucking. Too bad one can't do that in America.
@tinwoods no we're just not russian
The semi was passing in the left and moved right when he cleared the slower traffic, the jeep is way out of line. Also lets talk about how stupid it is to play chicken with a semi

@sparky12x Oh well,.............Pardon me.😉
I'm a trucker and I've had this done to me a few times. These jerks should be arrested and charged to the fullest extent of the law. Lose their license for a couple years and jump through hoops to regain the PRIVILEGE to operate a motor vehicle Just like they do with drivers convicted of DWI. Then they can enjoy riding a bicycle to work or take the bus.
stay in the right lane dick hole
I don’t understand how can people do that! Is not a regular vehicle, is a semi that can literally turn your vehicle into scrap! I have so much respect for all truck drivers, specially after I almost got run over for trying to “win” at an intersection. After that I learn my lesson and respect you all very much for your job and for doing your best when stupid people like me disrespect you in anyway.
@@almagjim People who do this should be removed from the highways before they get someone killed, one way or another.
They are trying to get hit..too many ambulance chasers advertising to suite truckers
stupid truckers. hahahaha
All three of the trucks should have put that jeep in the "cradle" and took him wherever they were going. Then whoever it was will learn to leave the truck's alone.
When I was a kid, I was traveling with Mom and sisters in hours of long heavy traffic for a number of trips we had to make - just us girls. Dad did heavy construction work and didn't like us in heavy traffic like that without a man, but he couldn't go for his work schedule., but we has a CB because of his work. One trip we shared some info with some truckers around us, and they really appreciated it, and when I told them the kind of work Dad did was why we helped them, they put us in the saddle out of respect for him. miles on down the rode, a guy came in off one of those axis roads and came right into our slot, Mom had a little trouble making the lateral move into the other lane to get out of the way of our car being clobbered broadside, they acted like they didn't even see. The truckers told us to get behind them for a few minutes and they put him in the cradle and edged him right off to the bar ditch. It was level and he was safe, they didn't try to wreck him - just gave him something to think about. They put us back in the cradle, but they never tried to make any move on us or anything, they just felt like Dad had taught us to respect and help them, and they treated us like they wanted their own family treated if they were on the highway without their own Man around to help them if anything happened.
Dad was so proud of all his bragging about Truck Drivers and of how we behaved towards them, and how well they looked out for us for his sake, even though they'd never met him.
He loved it. We did, too.
Right at 50 yrs ago.
@@anombrerose6311 Beeeeeeeaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutiful story
@@anonimous2451 Thank you. It was a good thing to experience, all of us felt like, we did a good thing and helped someone else, God was pleased and He returned it through those Truckers.
They should've put the jeep out of it's misery when all 3 were closing on it
Only 1 problem with that solution.......unless the truckers are trying to KILL everyone in the Jeep, whether or not we personally wish it or not< , there IS an EMERGENCY LANE that almost ANY CAR can out accelerate a truck in. Therefore, If the trucker tries to stop the pass, he risks killing all occupants. If the vehicle is not being chased by a COP, then leave them alone and go about your day. Personally, I HAVE passed trucks in the emergency lane cause they were being huge pricks on the highway. A truck(er) should damn well know they back up a 2 mile line of faster moving vehicles cause they wanna pass another big rig doing 2 mph less than them. Taking 10 miles to pass another truck is just IRRESPONSIBLE Driving and STUPID. Be patient, pull over and SHARE the road instead of HOGGING the road. Seen this so many times on I-81 in Va and nearly killed by one asshole that wanted to do 80 in a big rig and couldn't STOP in time for a road emergency. Also on I-95 going thru NC and SC cause it is only 2 lanes there. Time for some Fiscal Funding to widen them roads like Ga and Va have done.
I wish people would lose their license permanently for this kind of thing
this is the norm in Texas...except they drive worse than this
They should have T.packed him.
@@jerryrobinson6250 in san antonio they like to go 10 under and when you try and pass they suddenly find their gas pedal
Nuh, any insurance company that saw that video would immediately drop that loser.
A reckless driving citation gets you cancelled by most reputable insurance carriers.
On secondary carriers, their rates instantly quadruple.
If they choose to drive without insurance, they cannot renew their vehicle registration
Without both, they're getting picked up and locked up.
I've run into alot of people who just don't care and drive to work without a license and if they get sent to jail its no problem for them cause their so used to it, and just don't give a shit. Local speed (anfitamine) addicts right here in Indiana.
Had a car do that to me in my truck in Atlanta. Called the cops, thankfully they actually showed up. Gave them the dash cam footage and they cited the driver for reckless driving

I give the Trucker a lot of credit for not giving that Jeep a little tap. Or he could have Cb’d a few friends... Since they are bigger than me, I stay out of their way. I would like all of us on the road to get to our destination in one piece. I’ve always said Truckers Rock! Think of whatever you buy, it gets to the store via a Trucker. Appreciate all they do and continue to do especially during this pandemic!

Gracie-Absolutely!! The jeep is a total jerk. He’s playing with fire. Moron.
I imagine that before passing the videographer, this victim trucker probably "cut off" the Jeep driver, in order to pass the videographer's truck! It's just a guess, but I see it happen time after time after time. I travel a several miles of interstate almost every day, with two miles of it, a long, steep, 3 lane mountain climbing road! Each time I ascend this mountain, I find all three lanes blocked by tractor trailers, in spite of the large signs reading: "No Tractor Trailers in Left Lane!" The local small town cops ignore these violations, as well as both the County and State Law Enforcement, as they're profiling travelers seeking to stop those with large sums of cash on board! They of course "confiscate" all large sums of cash, because it "MIGHT BE" meant to purchase illicit drugs, several states south of here!
I occasionally see southbound cars pulled over, being searched by a Cop from a dead city of only a few hundred people.
@@petersack5074 & so does chocolate milk (family joke)😉. Happy Holidays!
The driver of that jeep needs to go to prison. The charges can range from, Reckless driving, Reckless endangerment, Risking a catastrophe, Felony road rage, and insurance fraud.

Talk about a movie with a sad ending, I was waiting for the Jeep to become a black and red spot on the road.
When people do that deliberately, it should be legal to just ram em and run em off the road. They do that in Russia all the time.
I agree. At some point those idiots just need to get rammed. Hopefully that Jeep got busted and had the book thrown at him.
+basspig Russia is completely different than the US, they still look out for truck drivers and treat douchebag drivers how they should be treated. In the US, the douchebags and criminals can fuck with you all day long as they stay just inside the letter of the law.
+Evan Snow When I was a much younger man, I probably would have. But today, one accident can bankrupt you.
You need to look at it like there may be innocent passengers, including children, in the car. And is ramming him really better than what he did? Would that make you feel manly? He was wrong but the attitude it's okay to ram him is criminal intent. And fucking stupid. And don't say it doesn't happen. I've seen the videos!
+Barb Wallace True. In most cases, the idiot drives solo, but consider that sometimes ramming them can cause them to veer into someone else's lane. It's just too risky. Besides, if they didn't hit you, all you lost was a few seconds and a few ounces of fuel that you will burn to make up for braking hard. But in an 18-wheeler, the stakes are higher when someone cuts you off. Not long ago, on a state highway up here, a 16 year old girl cut off a gasolene tanker on a state highway, causing the tanker to flip on a bridge and explode. The bridge had to be replaced at taxpayer's expense. The kid did face arrest, but not much happened. The truck driver narrowly escaped death.
As a local heavy haul driver in Atlanta I deal with this pretty often, usually it’s someone cutting me off or pulling out in front of me, I give them the benefit of the doubt and back out of it maybe taps some breaks it’s all apart of traffic , but if you cut me off intentionally and start hitting breaks especially like this guy you can kiss your ass good bye son you going for a fk’n ride , won’t be the first and definitely not the last , dash cam is rollin and so am I
I had a dude in a Silverado get pissed at me because he thought I was intentionally blocking him from merging onto the interstate. He couldn’t see the car beside me riding about 1/2 up my trailer. The car stayed beside me because I am pretty sure he couldn’t see the ‘Rado trying to merge on the interstate. The idiot merging actually rode beside me for about 1/2 mile in the emergency lane before accelerating and passing me. He then had the nerve to brake check me several times and slow to about 30 mph. I am sure a lot of my fellow drivers are familiar with the area of I-75 S around Perry, GA and just how much time Georgia State Patrol spends sitting on bridges looking for unbelted drivers then calls ahead to awaiting troopers with the vehicle description on who to pull over. Lucky for me, there was one on a bridge ahead of me, doing just that! He saw the entire episode take place. Needless to say, the little truck was pulled over and I hope he got his butt handed to him for being so stupid.
Right place, Right time. your lucky day.
Good stuff.
Nice. Sounds like a jerk.
Excellent outcome!
I hope they took his stupid ass to jail.
The 3 semi's should have boxed him in then stopped and beat the crap out of him.
That's just what I was thinking. Um, Mr. Jeep..? Hope you brought your Captain America shield.
Yep...Have a couple semis pass...one in front of the jeep, one beside him, then slow down. But instead of beating the crap out of him...have one call the highway patrol and play the video. Then video the jeep being towed.

So... he was so upset about the trucker taking too long to move over... that he wasted everyone's time and became a hazard.
Basically he had to rush and get in front so he could proceed to slow down.

They count on the fact that truck drivers are more conscientious drivers than they are. It gives them the feeling of being a man for just a moment, of being in control of _something_ , a feeling which they can’t get in any other area of their life.
Truckers are often victims of insurance fraud. People go in front of them and brake to try to make it seem like its their fault. All truckers (and probably all drivers) need dashcams for this reason.
If the truck hits you, there’s a good chance you won’t survive. Not a good way to make some money.
+Milky Career Not really. If you brake check a truck, it'll probably hurt a bit, but there's no way that a bump to back is gonna kill you
there so in a hurry that they have to tailgate you BUT they have time for that bullshit. What most people don't understand is that most truck;s not all have goveners that limit how fast they go
they feel they are out of control....they need to control everybody...they are not in a hurry at all...it's all about control..if someone really is in a hurry they would speed up as soon as possible

truckers truck because they're too dumb to find another profession. they pull out in front of you going 30mph slower and then are annoyed when you're upset with them. f truckers.
That's been done to me so many.many times in thirty years of driving truck.
I retired last year, and two days before I did, a twit did this to me again.
So I thought, what the hell, he couldn't believe it when I didn't slow down he got real scared.
Hey, after thirty years and retiring in two days, bad timing on their part and I owed it to myself.
I am glad you did that to that person. that'll teach him/her.
I'm a driver too and I say good for you!!
My last day of truck driving, I was literally a mile away from the last exit off the interstate to the terminal. A car started messing with me, trying to brake check me on the fairly steep incline. The first time he did it, I slowed down. The second time, I just pushed him up the hill, off the ramp, and went on my way. Never heard a thing about it.
Good for you!
Yes very upsetting but hate it when trucks do the pass at .5 mph faster than the truck they are passing and it takes many minutes to pass on damn truck. Even you guys seem upset at the operation as form other vids here. of trucks passing others doing it on the shoulder.
Truckers are truly under valued. I appreciate you! The driver showed great restraint. I was hoping he at least got pulled over. ,✌🏼♥️🕊🤗
Angry or not this behavior is all to common involving semi's. It's easy to blame a truck driver for the stupidity of others on the road. God bless dash cams. Everyone stay safe over the road.
The way I figure it the highway is basically a truck driver's office. Whenever there's a truck nearby I try to give them as much room as I possibly can because A) They're the professional drivers, not me, B) They get enough crap from idiots like that jeep, and C) The worst case scenario is I end up dead and he has to do some paperwork. None of those lead me to believe hassling truck drivers is justified or wise. EVER.

All trucks should have video cameras for their own protection.
Minding my own business one day cruising along with a 32 ft trailer & pickup I saw a guy watching for people to turn on their signal then he would zip up beside them flashing lights & blowing horn to prevent them from changing lanes.
He did this several times.
When it came time for me to change lanes I got ahead of him a few car lengths I signaled as required and quickly got over the line before he could get beside me.
Watching him in my mirror go off onto the dirt, priceless !
I like you!!
+B Ann I was getting tailgated in my old '69 elCamino in bumper to bumper traffic running 60 (Limit was 55.) coming up Bragg BLVD towards Spring Lake by a Ford Explorer. Nice thing abut the way it was geared. It wouldn't shift for 3nd until 80 if I held it down. I dropped it in 2nd. All he/she saw was the Trailer hitch on the back and the Tank Trail beside the road.
Definitely agree with you! I'm new in the reducing business. I drive a company truck and use my old galaxy S4 as a dashcam. It feels nice knowing that if some idiot chose to slam on his brakes on front of me, I have the ability to run him over and get away with it.
Also, you taught that idiot a lesson. Good job!
+Tami Potirala man I hope you never will end up in an accident because of idiots like these drivers you are describing. I really hate this drivers my self. every time I drive a legal speed with a lot of free space in front off me, what do they decide... yeah to cut me with 1 meter. fuck them....
I have had the same thing happen to me, usually let the trailer side signal flash in their face about 10 times then change lanes anyway. they move
🐨🌏 on Australia Roads we give the trucks all the room they need and time to do their thing . Keith Australia
Most Aussies are sensible people (I'm assuming) but this is America we're talking about mate. Common sense isn't common here. 😉
Dead Set Keith, I reckon most Aussies aren't into playing silly buggers with a semi. It's a bit like the chook fetching the axe for the cockie to have it head cut off
@@christopherwhitney2711 what
I’ve seen truck drivers take 10 miles side by side with no intention to let anyone pass. A little game the young and stupid MFs play. I’ve passed on the shoulder at least 3 times because the dickhead operators think it’s funny to monitor the speed of everyone else. Werner trucks only have signage on the drivers door. When they break the law by blocking lanes they stay in the left lane so the information can’t be reported. Their drive- safe hotline for reporting bad driving has a Maxi Pad wearing clown who’s easily entertained by talking smack on the phone. When you show up at their office they sound different from when they insulted you on the phone. So hello for me.
@@stevehensley7731 that's pretty bad bro, I think we're a little luckier here with pretty tough laws on heavy vehicles including lane use etc.
people are so obnoxious to trucks. they have a hard job navigate that big vehicle. just go around them and mind your own business
I've also been around some pretty bad truck drivers, I've had my car damaged by exploded truck tires (never does the trucker stop) and from my experience working shipping at a steel mill, a good portion can't speak English, like they speak another language can't speak English. I respect them, I try to give them room when merge over and I don't get to upset if they go slow. it's possible the driver of the jeep wanted to start trouble but we don't know what happened before this, the truck driver could have cut the jeep off or perhaps was lollygagging in the left lane.
depending on where the tire was blown out and weight of truck, etc. sometimes they cannot feel the tire has been blown out for miles. So i have heard anyways
Jeremy McAdams so I've been told, though when the car behind you goes all over the road, flashes its lights and blasts the horn before pulling over... you'd think they would stop. last time I had to get a new headlight assembly because a big ole chunk of rubber and band came off a truck and bounced up into my car :/
$320 that cost me.
yeah you have a point man i was just shedding light on the other view
The problem is, there are to many barmpots who think that all people who put better clothes on after work, are simple-minded. So the dumbest bank clerk who, amongst others, cleans the trash cans considers himself superior to
a bloke who rides his own ( and paid) big rig.
People disrespect tractor trailers. They drive hours and hours to deliver food and other products and shit like this happens?! If there's a tractor trailer in front of you and there is no one in the lane next to it, then just go around the truck and mind your own business, don't just disrespect those truck drivers. It's that simple.
Kuhzen its funny how one time, people are in such a hurry, but suddenly aren't when people hurt their delicate feelings.
Kuhzen Right people are dumb now in this day
Rico Santos totally agree
True that Rico Santos..👍
I see you posted this 5 years ago. You're so right, truckers deliver food and everything else, and people don't treat them with the respect they deserve. Now that Covid has hit, the shelves are half empty because they don't have enough truck drivers. Maybe people will start giving truckers the respect they so deserve? Those truckers were all driving perfectly in the video, and the one gave notice he was moving over with his blinker. Then he made a smooth transition. He was very safe. I'm really confused as to why the Jeep started messing with him?
My blood was boiling just watching this. People are freaking stupid
Same here, I thought about the truckers blocking him or her too
People need to get ready to be polite when they get behind the wheel, yet some people act like jerks doing the opposite.
Yes, I got very angry watching this hoping that jeep got its KARMA ! !
Maybe we need guided missiles on trucks to blow up twat drivers like that.
Older driver here - husband and I drive from the East Coast to Colorado several times a year to see kids ( love it out there!). I have a lot of friends who won’t drive the interstates anymore because they’re afraid of all the trucks. I tell them that the trucks are the last things they need to worry about, but it’s probably good that they’re not getting out there, because the truckers are scared of them!
Jeep buddy thinks how dare that semi use the (passing lane) to get by a slower semi and here I am a left lane bandit speeding and driving in the passing lane like it's my own private lane and that big truck got infront of me, so he needs brake checking because I am a moron and have a death wish.
"How dare you slow me down, you evil semi!"
Also him: "How do you like being slowed down, you evil semi!"
On that roadway, trucks are only allowed in the right lane. This is a common problem here in Indy. Trucks are fined left and right for blocking the left lanes.
The truck was using the passing lane to pass the other truck and then returned to the right. The Jeep then did the same but proceeded to block the truck from passing. If I were the truck driver I would be concerned that the guy was setting me up for a hijacking.
DashCam Videos
Yeah, still doesn't mean he should brake check and not only endanger his own life but the life of EVERY vehicle close by behind him. That jeep is a menace, not the truck driver
the jeep driver doesn't realize the semi had to pass the other slower semi before he could get over. nothing personal, until.. please give semi drivers ample room and predictable signaling.. it's rewarding getting 4way flashed.
I personally have just gone ahead and hit people that have done that to me. Its called improper stopping. People think that if you hit them in the rear that its automatically your fault. That's untrue. I have rammed four people while driving an 18 wheeler that did the very same thing this guy did. All four times their insurance paid me and in one case the lady was ticketed on top of that.
I would have turned that 4 door Jeep into a 2 door!!
I hope whoever did this got caught now that they are on candid camera! People like this shouldn't be on the road, period!
Jesus Christ a truckers life is hard enough , This Jeep pisses me off.
Not a good idea to play around with big rigs.
What you won't see is the semi's taking forever to pass each other thereby creating these road rage situations.
That’s less common than you think. When you’re out there on a strip of 100+ miles, passing someone at 5mph makes the difference, usually that slower truck doesn’t understand how to maintain one speed. It’s more common for cars to pass slower than trucks, and then get right in front of you.
The jeep forgot the laws of physics. Little jeep does not weigh as much as a semi possibly loaded with heavy cargo = dead jeep driver.
And yet the jeep still won the battle lol stupid truck driver road raging swerving all over the fucking road lol prolly got his load all fucked up
Jake Holm I had a Fiat pull this with me one day. The difference was that I was in the left lane anticipating the end of an express toll way in less than 1 mile and there was literally no other traffic. What really irritated me is that the little shithead got off the highway at the exit before mine. (Right lane exit, btw. He didn't even need the left lane.) ~78,000 lbs vs ~2,400 lbs... As much as you want to just run their ass over, you don't want to kill anyone.
Oh the truck is definetly at max load. You can tell by the position of the rear trailer wheels. The heavier the load, the farther to the rear the trailer wheels will be to balance the weight.
msgsgt It's actually the other way around....the tandems slide towards the tractor to move weight towards the front of the trailer. Most states have a bridge law that prevents you from running near Max with your wheels all the way back. Generally, anything close to 80k is more towards the middle, but honestly, it's pretty hard to tell unless you're the one pulling it. Just thought id throw that in...
Also, IDK what happened here, but my guess is...the Jeep got angry that a big truck passing other big trucks clogged up the passing lane that he wanted to fly down the highway in, and he got pissed. Sadly, Its not uncommon.....2¢ from a Professional driver....🤗
Robert DuHamel lol...whoops, I worded that backwards....idk how that happened, but yes...you made the point I was trying to make....cheers😊
Jeep driver should lose his right to drive for 5 years!
+George Adams 5 years? Hell, I'd prefer to see him never get his license back. He clearly has demonstrated that he cannot operate a motor vehicle safely.
for life ,
Or make them become a truck driver for no less than one year OTR.
Jeep driver deserves to be on the underside of 80,000 pounds of steel!!!
steve var I wasn't referring to this driver in particular. I meant that if everyone had to drive a truck for one year OTR they would see things differently and maybe, just maybe the roads would get a lot safe. But I highly doubt it would make a difference because as much as I hate the way four wheelers drive, it pretty obvious we have enough retards already in the trucking industry and we don't need anymore. Sorry you thought I meant otherwise.
One of the reasons I approve of Road Side Execution.
Just too funny. LOL.
great soundtrack... felt like I was there in the driver's seat with ya.
You know the brain cells are really firing when you think you can take on a semi with a Jeep
Both of them.
What's the point of this behaviour? The Jeep driver puts not only his/her own life, but also the lives of others in danger. Sometimes I get the feeling that these people want to die.
No that is incorrect. All countries do it.
+gen wunner NOT!
i've never seen that shit in my country Brazil, i think we dont have that idiotic behavior in our culture.
and even seeing this situation the trucker with the cam reduces his 1 second following time to even less than that....
+MrMamfbr Idiots live everywhere dumb nut. You lower your standards so far trying to make a statement like that.
So he's upset that the truck was in the left lane, even though the truck was rightfully passing. So if the Jeep was in such a hurry that the truck was too slow, why does he all of a sudden have time to do those dumb @$$ shenanigans? He clearly has no reason to be upset because he has all the time in the world to get himself killed.
Accept what's in front of you, leave egos behind, wait n' be patient, everyone's happy!
Ain't that right! 😉
The trucker should have just squashed him like a bug on the windshield.
Bad Idea. What if there is an innocent child in the car? The child has no power to influence what their douchenugget parent do. Easy thing to say until one day you kill a child. Think about it. How would YOU like living with that knowledge for the rest of your days. I would not like it a bit. It haunts you day and night.......................Think about what you do, do not react emotionally without logic and common sense.
How about I do

That Jeep would have been the size of a Hot Wheel car if I was driving that semi
+Tami Potirala no, the jeep cut him off, and it's on video. Just don't slow down saying you couldn't see it over the hood and didn't know to slow down
Nope. not if it was an accident that was the jeep drivers fault. If he cut the semi driver off close enough that he couldn't see it it would be the jeep drivers fault
Nope. Well then the world should be blind. that's the fair way to do shit
+Second_Chance_234 You wouldnt have given him a second chance to get away would you?(See what I did there)
+Tami Potirala Not likely... And alive!
Having some awareness of the mass of the truck and the laws of physics, I pay great respect to these vehicles in motion and give them plenty of room. The driver of the Jeep was the easily distracted kid who paid no attention in science class.
Great example of why I quit trucking. It wasn't the long hours, weeks from home, or mediocre pay. It was a-hole idiots like this risking lives for no reason at all.
The truck moved over after a clean pass. If the Jeep jerk was really in a hurry, he/she/it had plenty of open road ahead.
Do you think the Jeep did that for no reason? We agree he did not. What do you think the reason was? He block traffic by driving side by side with another truck instead of speeding up to let traffic pass.I've seen it SO many times!!!
@@matthewdurden5929 People like you shouldn't be allowed to drive.
@@TheTalshiar So you think the Jeep did that for no reason? Just thought it was a good idea to cut off a big truck? Sounds right.
Not justifying anything but that is why you have truckers that just dont care. You deal with a few morons like that jeep and you figure to heck with them!
The reckless trucker cut him off before, he deserves it. I have no tolerance for retarded fat slobs endangering everyone else’s lives in those 18 wheelers.
Attempted hijacking ''i feared for my life so i took defensive measures and squished the threat'' Yeah I know ya can't do that but damn it, should be allowed.
yes you can, make sure you have a dash cam so in court you have proof that the other driver move in front of you and checked brakes so you couldn't stop
spudrubble The driver of the jeep could be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon If the semi hit him because of this incident and depending on how many people in the truck, add 1 assault per person to the jeep drivers charges. It's a felony on the federal level. Prison time, not jail. This goes for ANY vehicle doing this out on the road to another. Report if you see this shit.
spudrubble why can’t you do that? If I was judge I could see how it was possible they were trying to get you to stop, and you wouldn’t know if they had a weapons to steal your load, and you had to run them off into a ditch and drove around 4-500 more miles to complete your shift just to make sure they weren’t following you and couldn’t catch up, and couldn’t use your phone while driving to call 911 so you just had to keep driving... that’s believable lmao
I’m assuming now since this is an old video the driver of the jeep is now been killed by a tractor-trailer that just drove over him or her
Lets just hope that him or her dont have 6 kids that take after there mom or dad.
Damn, little jeep bullying huge trailer truck is about as dumb as it gets.
The TT driver should run over the Jeep. Only loss is another stupid 4-wheeler. Highway is a little safer.
This is why my man is on the Verge of quiting his job 30 + years where or better yet how did he get the Jeep 1) trucker 2) were did he get the gas a trucker 3) well I think you all get what a mean ..
WTH did that truck driver do to the Jeep? Too often drivers are just downright disrespectful to truck drivers........give em room, let em over, help em out, they'll remember you down the highway should you need to get over. Good gawd........
I have a feeling that once companies start putting cameras in more trucks, it will make drivers a lot safer and also result in a lot more crashes at the same time. now that I sometimes drive with a camera, I'll be a lot less likely to slam on brakes when someone does something like this. I'll move over and hit the cruise. if they jerk in front of me and try to make me rear end them - there won't be any "my word against his" and the other guy saying I came up behind him and rammed into him. the video will show what happened. the other driver will be charged for causing the accident and our company will be suing them for scratching our truck. and the other driver might show up to court in a body cast.
+chieftp Or you could just buy your own, this way when you retire or switch job careers you can take your camera with you when you go. If company says otherwise, take that receipt, make a copy, and shove that fucking thing in their faces and tell em to fuck off. Without the shove paper in face and telling them to fuck off, I do not endorse that since you could be arrested for assault lol.
*****
I usually err on the side of caution to avoid any wreck if possible, but if someone does something as blatantly defiant and intentional as mr jeep here, well - I won't go out of my way to jam on the brakes nor throw my load around.
I would honestly like to know why trucks wait until the last minute to pull out in front a car and then go a1/4 of a mile faster than the truck they are passing taking 10 minutes to pass. If trucks went the speed limit - 55 in CA - you all would not have this problem.
Are there any trucks left in california?
And the road belongs to everybody.because you always gotta be in a big dambed hurry to get no where important is not my fault.and truckers pass at those speed because that's where their employers set the speed limit at and even they can catch and pass a truck.learn to have some patience before some chipping has to scrape your rotten carcass off an o erpass cuz you got too pissed and fucked up while following a big truck passing another truck,the drivers of which are just trying to do their jobs while having g to deal with immature drivers such as yourself.if you don't like getting caught behind trucks,then leave earlier in the day
what an utter lunatic! that Jeep would have been crushed like a tin can!!
Can we say a new definition to "road kill"
As an aspiring trucker(just got my permit).
This is the type of stuff that scares me.
Do people not understand that these types of vehicles are a very different beast.
Brakes will fail once they reach a certain temp, an emergency maneuver in response to that type of behavior can end lives, and most importantly these trucks are heavy and will crush anything in its path without effort.
Seriously people THINK!
rust8infinite I do agree with you, to a point. Yes, brakes will fail once they reach a certain temperature but not in a situation like this. When you get brake failure is usually hauling a heavy load down a decent hill riding your brakes. The roots is flat here. Even slamming on your brakes isn't going to cause them to heat up enough to fail just due to temperature. How I know is I've been driving for several years already and I am also a certified driving instructor for tractor trailers. For the most part you are right though.
ok rust , lets for arguments sake admit that truck drivers are the worst human beings on the planet . there . you got your way . having said that who in their right mind would break check 100,000 pounds of metal ?
rust8infinite welcome to trucking!
Rust8,drove one in 57 and part of 58, doctor advised me to find a job where I did not sit so much. You find people that don’t realize the weight of a truck but then a trucker sees some sights. I saw everything from naked drivers to couples in foreplay,people trading blows in actual fights and dogs sitting in the drivers lap.If it happens truckers have seen it.
@@thomastolbert6184 you drove 65 years ago
This trucker is driving less than 1 SECOND behind the rig in front.
Pali That was my first observation in this video as in most of the other ones I see on you tube. It says a lot about just how safe drivers THINK they are driving. 1 second away is a dangerous place to be.
Even though that is true, he was probably waiting for his turn to pass. He should def have given that rig more room
He could have waited farther back. Even though nothing happened because of his close range the potential is always there if you're too close. It is a high-risk situation when you choose to be in that position. You are at the mercy of the vehicle in front of you. You don't know what they are thinking, doing, or what they are perceiving. It's a crap shoot when you drive like this and it is the unspoken biggest danger on the roads. Collisions don't just HAPPEN, they occur 98% of the time because one or more drivers refuses to lose a little speed to make a situation safe. When one truck is going 1/2 of a mile per hour faster than another one, and they attempt to pass it, it can be a long drawn out process that really doesn't get them anywhere. Too many drivers (all drivers) refuse to slow down for safety. In this clip all of the trucks are following too close. It isn't that anyone is waiting to pass, it is that they do this constantly. We professionals should know better than to travel any distance in that precarious position.
my though was: nothing was done right in that video XD
but can it distort the time needed for the road marks to go from the front truck to the following one ... no this is also how you evaluate safety distance the proper way, by timing the gape between you and the one you follow!
What we don't know is whether this truck driver cut off that jeep first? Trucks are constantly cutting off left lane vehicles because they want to pass a slower truck in front of them. They cut you off make you slam on the brakes (sometimes almost driving you off the shoulder) and then you have to wait several minutes to pass the truck they are passing that you would have done in 10 seconds. I'm not saying big rig driving is easy, (I've driven bigger trucks shy of big rigs and know its not), and I know it's very helpful when fellow traffic helps them out, but it would be nice if they gave the same courtesy they expect on the road to the smaller, faster vehicles! I have driven across the country more than 15 times each way, I know what I am talking about! This Jeep driver seems to have a beef with the truck....and it very likely occurred before they made it in front of this camera. My guess, that truck previously cut the Jeep off!
Hey jeep driver go do that with a locomotive driver. He'll move for you too
he just gotlucky wih a patient driver in him. while i applaud him, that won't be me. i'd bumper greet him , despite danger to both of us.
Good come back. Real intellig.......nah what you wrote was dumb. Idiot.
Hmm.. 40 ton vs. 1.5 ton.. Crush you like a bug!
I think rigs should block that Jeep in and keep him there for MILES! He's an insurance case. Call the police about his tag number and Sue him if he damages the rig. Keep intentional distance. Slow down and let him eventually get tired. If necessary run him off the road and rid the world of that maggot!
what about all the people that will stack up behind them too?
How are 3 Semis (who don't know each other) going to block a JEEP and "run him off the road" . . . it's a JEEP ! They are known to go off-road.
Unless they manage to pin him on a bridge and COMPLETELY block him AND all other traffic . . .

I always always allow ample room for truck drivers and business vehicles truckers bring us our goods cable companies install our phones tv etc., the post man delivers our mail and so on and so forth also I will yield slow down when I see a turn signal when I see someone wanting to merge in our out so many folks don’t and it’s frustrating just let them in or out so it slows you down for a few seconds the main thing is it keeps everyone safe it’s a no brainer
that jeep and the driver would off look like shit if a fatal accident should occur. it's people like that, that would freak out if truck drivers stop delivering goods. understand that the food you eat, the cloths, the house, and the Cars you drive made its way on to u by a truck driver. the world is moved by truck drivers delivering the products people consume everyday yet they don't get enough respect on the road.

That wasn't cutting off that was attempting to fake an accident.
I am guessing the Jeep was hauling ass up the left lane and got mad that the semi switched lanes in front of him, causing him to slow down. If I had been in my pickup and had saw the Jeep driver do this, I would have sped up there and got in front of the Jeep and did the same thing to him. I bet the semi driver would have enjoyed that.
yeah, because repeating a dick move to the guy who did it first is always a good idea.
True story, my step father was driving down an interstate and this trucker saw that he was speeding and slowed him down, after he had gotten over the hill there was a highway patrol man sitting right there. So maybe that truck was trying to slow the ass whole behind the wheel.
and that is what's wrong with people
Being that there are very few truly good drivers on the road, it is likely that each of you are ignorant, inconsiderate drivers yourselves and it is because of that, that you do not see much wrong with this, nor do you think that there should be consequences for your actions. While I see police catching people for going 5 over the limit, I never see them catch asshole drivers and that is where other drivers on the road should take responsibility. What is going to happen when a reckless driver hits and kills your parents? Is that what it takes to make you people understand the problem with all of these reckless drivers? If they cannot be brought to justice then they should at least be dealt with commensurately. Also, don't say to call the police because I have had to do that more than once and they never caught up with the dangerous driver. Now go ahead and post an ignorant response as I am sure you will.
And advocating vigilante justice is your solution? You're woefully ignorant, advocating anarchy as you have. You're probably the type who goes and beats on the father of the kid who has beaten your own son after your precious seedling has been bullying the kid to the breaking point.
Get a cam or two and submit the evidence to the police each time you report things. Oh, and grow up and become part of society in a positive way, please.
A similar situation happened here where I live. The guy misjudged and cut in front of the truck to close,not only did he go to the hospital he was fined and lost a law suit filed by the both the driver and his company.
I'm a Canadian Trucker and this garbage even happens here. LOTS!! Sometimes I even end up going to pass another semi and HE will speed up to try to prevent me from passing. He was going slow for ages. I caught up from a few miles back. Then I go to pass and THAT is when he speeds up..... 😒 Then I tuck in behind and he slows down again. F___ing A-holes.
I use to see this all the time, 4 wheelers never win, & they think they can
Kinda seems like there might have been more to this, the way the Jeep was being aggressive, like he was trying to get the semi to pull over, as a former driver, maybe the semi driver fucked up earlier and cut the Jeep off.
break check me and end up in a sardine can 😆

+Miles-From-Home I know what you mean! I do what I can to let trucks know I'm a good driver and looking out for them (i.e If there's enough room for me to change lanes, but not enough for them to stop, i stay in the same lane, etc.) I respect CDL operators for all the shit they have to put up with.

You spelled douche wrong, you smart man, you.
+Lou R maybe company drivers do, Not us Owner Operators.
+gozinta82 LOL
Music sounded like I was watching a documentary on bird migration.
typical Jeep driver.
There was a time when the truckers would have boxed that idiot for that. With three trucks putting you in a squeeze it can change your outlook and attitude a little...,
Agreed. We see lots of young smart alecks driving new jeeps here. They seem to always be the ones doing stupid things.
By the way the outside walls and roof are finally repaired. Now for the inside. We sure will gain a lot of space with the inner walls removed. Should have done it a long time ago.
How's the weather there in BC? It is hot avg. 92 for the past and next week. But the humidity is only 89%.
Wish there were a ocean near by.
Gerald Allen Good to hear that things are getting back on track for you.
It's been good here - topping out at about 82F here in the valley.
I helped some cyclists out yesterday up by a place called Lytton (in the Fraser canyon). It was 95F and they were going uphill..and had run out of water. They are doing a charity ride across Canada for Addiction recovery. I went into town for them and got them a case of water. They only have about 4100 miles to go....
I got myself a new car. The old '95 Nissan Pathfinder I have is getting too tired to be a commuter for me. I bought a '15 Nissan Micra SR...really nice little car - cheap and good on gas. That Lytton run got me about 44 mpg (5.8 L/100km). Not bad.
We have a Navigator with 11 mpg. But around here you need something big due to the amount of bad drivers.
Gerald Allen I'm keeping my Pathfinder. It's too useful (and fun in the mountains) to get rid of. I have to give it some serious TLC though. Exhaust is rough and it needs some body work.
What's the background music name
Sorry you're loved one was a dumbshit here have these flowers, trucker said.
I bet I know why he did it.... Probably the third car hoping to get in front of the truck with his signal light on to pass, and the truck driver said NO WAY Jack....I 'm come'n out. Seen it a thousand times.
+Brian Toblerone yup, i dont think the jeep was mad because he had to follow the semi that whole time, he was mad because the semi pulled out infront of him first, then made him follow him. So in reality, the semi probably did cut him off, but two wrongs dont make things right! When i am on the road i always give the truckers lots of room, let them come in, etc. i can only imagine having to drive those trucks through stupid traffic and stupid drivers
+dynocompe You will notice the first three cars where all pretty close together which tells me that they where all in a hurry to get in front, then the semi. The jeep was just the fourth car in the bunch who was pissed off and was probably way back and gassed it. It's happened to me countless times. If I have my signal on and I am gaining on slower vehicles, I will do the same thing a lot of times depending the mood I'm in. I had one guy so determined, he took the shoulder to go around me and almost wrecked. I still remember his passenger standing up through the sun roof to give me the finger. LOL There are a lot of stupid drivers out there. Trucks are a little like trains, you don't want to lose speed if you don't have to. Everyone wanted to get past the first truck including the one filming. We really do appreciate the courtesy though.
+Brian Toblerone this has happened to me as well. Instead of the Truck Driver waiting he may have pulled out in front of him.
As a driver, I see attempted hijacking. You just lost that jeep.
