A Car Sees Another Car Cut Off A Big Rig And Tries To Do The Same, But It Doesn’t Go As Well

A truck driver caught the results of a car’s failed attempt to cut him off on a busy U.S. highway.

After seeing a Nissan cut off the big rig, the driver of the Volkswagen figures that she could get away with it too, in order to pass a slower moving truck in front of her. The driver of the big rig maintains his speed however, and the cars attempt to get in front of him goes wrong quickly.

The force of brushing against the side of the rig caused her car to make a 90 degree turn and get dragged down the road by the rig, ultimately getting sandwiched by the rig she was trying to cut off and the rig she was trying to pass on the right.

After all of that, it might have been better just to stay in her lane until a better passing opportunity came up.
