Instant karma is gonna get you, especially if you’re a giant jerk. From what we can see here, everyone got what they deserved—except the poor trucker, who was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.


What happened? A Camaro driver was trying to pass on the right—dangerously, nearly sideswiping a pickup—and the pickup driver reacted by boxing him in against a big rig.

The Camaro driver wasn’t having it.

Instead, he attempted a high-speed pass on a grassy median. Predictably, the buffoon loses control of the car, hits the pickup, and sends them both into the path of the tractor-trailer. All three end up going off the highway.



Fortunately it doesn’t look as if anyone was seriously injured.

Unfortunately, neither of these asshats is likely to understand how badly they messed up. And that poor trucker just had a very bad day at work.

Road rage aside...
Because, being able to reload a 32 round magazine
at high speed, takes talent.


I've never understood the mentality
of idiots in itty bitty cars, that wanna
get stupid around 18 wheelers.

i think they were both stupid, the 18 wheeler was innocent of everything there...

the pickup should have let the camero pass,and the camero should have relaxed a bit...

imho, the cat in the pickup truck is not a traffic inforcement officer. you never know what kind of problem the guy behind you trying to pass has. if it was a medical emergency than things would have really gotten bad. all the guy in the pickup had to do is let the camero go by and everyone would have gotten to where they were going

A law passed during the last legislative session requires that the Texas Department of Transportation put up signs that say "Left Lane for Passing Only" whenever the department needs to replace signs that say "Slower Traffic Keep Right"
The legislation in effect requires slower traffic to travel in a lane other than the left lane. Signs can be placed only on highways with more than one lane traveling in the same direction
Law enforcement agencies have long had the ability to write citations for slower vehicles failing to keep to the right or for impeding traffic. The new law does not affect that
The new signs already have been posted in some parts of the state, and TxDOT held a news conference in San Antonio in late June to unveil the new signs
The new signs don't give motorists "a license to speed." Motorists still must obey all traffic laws, including speed laws
