It's not so awesome when you're at the wheel. Luckily I didn't crash like that but I nearly shat myself for sure.

Nothing irks me more on the road than idiots not using turn signals

Being sober does not mean you won't have an accident. It simply reduces your chances.

[Skippy88]

Hope you and the car are okay. Not sure what caused it but learn from the experience so it never happens again.

Don't feel too bad, I used to work at a car dealership and we parked the big vans (basically white vans that contain candy) right in front of a ditch, and I backed a couple of them in. They're hard to get out, had to hook them up to F-350s and pull them out. It was kinda funny though.

But really, how did you manage that?

Extreme wind, bad gravel road and I looked away for a second.

I sudden gust of wind stronger than what I already was having and having an inch of loose gravel underneath pushed me over to the left. I was tuning the radio at the time and then I'm suddenly a foot over further than what I should have been. The gravel just collapsed underneath of me and I slide off into a 5ft deep ditch.

How fast were you going?

That and people who overtake on the right. :P There was even enough room for that person to go left instead of on to the shoulder lol. There is so much stupid going on in that gif.

30-40km/hr

Indeed. I've had two accidents, both of them completely sober. One was due to ice, which caused me to lose control while going down hill, the other was a kamikazi deer who was tired of waiting for the traffic to pass by so she decided to play frogger with me and lost in the middle of the night a few days before Thanksgiving.

We had venison rather than turkey that year, btw.

did you damage the car much ?

The truckers an ass because he didn't signal, the guy behind him is a greater ass because he could have slowed down or moved to the left once he saw the truck was changing lanes.

People: There is a lever that's usually placed to the left of your steering wheel. This is called the Turn Signal. FUCKING USE IT.

I saw another freight container or two in that video so this probably happened in close proximity to a port. Those port drayage drivers are INSANE and have little to no regard for the safety of anyone else on the road. I get the pleasure of sharing the road with them on a daily basis in the 3rd largest US seaport.

Aye, after I watched it again the guy that crashed was at just fault just as much, if not more. But yes, trucker man clearly saw him and did that intentionally to block him, nearly killing the guy. Not wise.

Were you wearing your aviators?

Stop driving on the wrong side of the road you silly Canadian.

I don't think I know a single person here in rural Nebraska that hasn't gone in a ditch. All it takes is a second. City folk will never understand it.

[Masark]

Well, on the plus side, it isn't winter right now, so getting it out of the ditch is a relatively simple matter.

Pfft when all of like 5 countries out of 200+ with roads and vehicles on them drive on a different side of the road to everyone else...I think it's safe to say that YOU are on the wrong side!!
