    Don't be this guy!

    I'm posting this video in the "Towing, Hitching and Maneuvering" forum because incredible "maneuvering" by this truck driver is what saved everybody's life.

    What in the world was he thinking!!! Double yellow lines and everything. We've all been frustrated behind a loaded semi going up a grade, but risking yours and other's lives to get there a few minutes earlier? I hope he was scared straight. Unfortunately, the folks who need to usually aren't the ones who watch or read things like this...

    Could be the guy totally zoned out and was thinking it was a divided highway, with that concrete median there. But there are really, really bad drivers out there, so you can't discount complete stupidity.

    Watching it again and it's a good thing that the semi that was being passed saw what was coming and started pulling over to give the other semi room.
