VIDEO: trucker shares the ridiculousness of trucking in NYC

A truck driver posted a compilation of dash cam footage depicting trucking in New York City and it isn’t pretty.

The video compilation was filmed over a period of years, but has gained almost 224,000 views since its posting to YouTube by user Bad Drivers.

“Bad Drivers of New York City witnessed while driving the truck in NYC,” wrote the video poster.

In the clip, motorists in New York City can be seen making all kinds of poor driving choices around the big rig. At one point, a bus even breaks its own window by accidentally sideswiping the stopped tractor trailer, and a motorist complains about the trucker’s driving to a police officer but then immediately runs a stale red light.

The compilation has left viewers baffled at New York City driving.

“I like how those cops flat ignore him blowing a light and nearly causing an accident to try to lecture you lol,” wrote one.

“I am a trucker driver in Sweden. Visited New York 2-3 years ago. Cool city, but driving a Heavy truck there….is probably the last thing on Earth I would like to do :p,” wrote another.
