My dad is a truck driver. He has told me he has had quite a share of dealing with not so smart drivers on the road. He had a lady with her kids in the car pull out in front of him at an intersection in Pennsylvania and he didn’t know how in the world he avoided them because she pulled out and was cross ways in front of him trying to get in the left lane. He was not prepared to stop as the light was green. You can’t slam the brakes on in a big rig like that he said she moved just in time because he cleared the back of her car by maybe an inch and was halfway in the shoulder almost against a wall trying to downshift and miss her. He did manage to hit the horn and she threw her hands up in the air like she had no clue she has pulled out in front of him. He said I knew I was going to hit her so I was doing everything I could to make it at an impact point where it wouldn’t hit the kids in the back. But amazingly he missed the back of her minivan so everyone was thankful for that.
