A YouTuber recently shared this video, showing a truck driver crossing into oncoming traffic in order to pass a slow-moving RV.
In the clip, one camper is seen pulling over in order to allow the truck to pass. After being stuck behind a second camper, the truck decides to pass it by driving into oncoming traffic. An SUV that was traveling on the other side of the road is forced to move over in order to avoid a collision with the flatbed truck.
The video was uploaded by YouTuber mistervoice511, who wrote the following caption, “While taking the 299 to Redding a few months back, a semi truck in front of us tried to pass the vehicle in front of him. The result was a near miss between the semi and on coming traffic.” The footage was recorded in mid-September but posted online yesterday.
After recording the near-miss, the driver says he called CHP to report the incident but was unable to capture the license plate of the truck.
