This is what happens when you pass a tractor trailer unit without knowing what's in front of the truck. The irresponsible driver should have known that the truck was slowing down for a reason. Very disturbing!

There seem to be less and less good drivers out there, and it is like nobody bothers to drive by the book anymore which increases the number of car accidents. This video teaches a great lesson on “how not to pass a semi”!

A semi-trailer truck, more commonly called a "semi" is the combination of a tractor unit and one or more semi-trailers to carry freight.

This semi was driving on a straight motorway and a red car can be seen driving in front of it. After a few moments, the semi is obviously slowing down because the can in front gives a signal for a left turn.

That is when we can hear the truck driver shout “Oh my Gosh” and then he starts honking. Next thing, everything happens so fast. We see the red car make a left turn when another car is passing the semi and speeding by, so it directly crushes into the turning car.

Every driver is responsible for staying safe on the road. It is very important to keep a distance. Trucks need a lot more room to stop than passenger cars need. This means, whether you’re driving in front of or behind a truck, be sure you’re leaving plenty of room in between vehicles.

Unfortunately, this driver didn’t remember this rule, and walked into a death trap. Let’s hope that there are no victims in this horrible car accident!
