Rude Truck Driver In Viral Video Was Fired Less Than 24 Hours Later

A rude truck driver who berated a rookie driver in a now-viral clip was fired from his company less than 24-hours after the video was posted online.

The clip, which can be seen above, shows the driver refusing to move his truck for a rookie driver — all because of the company he works for.

Many outraged viewers reached out to the driver’s company, Dry Mountain Trucking, of Arkansas, to report the incident. After viewing the footage, he was terminated from the company according to several sources.

The following message was posted online by a driver who contacted the company:

The lesson? Sometimes it pays to be nice, other times it costs to be mean.
