Driver Catches Incredible Footage As Semi Truck Veers Out Of Control

Video
» 14 comments

A man in Canada was able capture some pretty amazing footage as a semi truck careened out of control, nearly ramming into his car and others. The man had installed a “dash cam” on his car after gotten into an earlier accident, and it caught all the action as it unfolded on a snow-dusted freeway.

Matthew Krizsan filmed the giant truck, which was carrying over 30 tons of sand, as it crashed through a concrete partition and swerved into oncoming traffic. Krizsan was fortunately able to maneuver his car out of harm’s way – a fact he credits to years of playing video games. And here people try and convince us that video games are a violent waste of time. Not Frogger!

    Yes, but how was Sarah Palin victimized by this incident? That is the big question.

    I’m sure you libs will find a way to blame her like you DID for the Tucson shooting.

    Explain to me how, if no one takes her seriously, listens to her or believes what she says, you libs could blame HER, like you did, for the Tucson shooting. One or the other can be true but not both, son.

    That makes her rather a double victim, doesn’t it? Poor, poor Sarah.

    As long as you libs continue your unwarranted attacks, yes it does. You libs are her best offense.

    Who’s bashing? I’m trying to be sympathetic to her dreadful plight.

    And, this is hardly news. Surely, we have all seen this on television by now.

    Oh frig that was a joke….I would have thought anyone loving Sarah Palin and watching Glenn Beck would have a sense of humour.
