I feel bad for that BMW...it got owned. He could always sue the DOT for having the arrow pointing the wrong way

Oh yeah lets sue DOT. If he wins he only wins our tax dollars!! If he was paying more attention to the road instead of the truck he might have not hit anything! A judge wouldn't give him any money....

The entire idea of those trucks is to tell you which way to go in case of an emergency or hazard...he was supposed to be paying attention to it! So he wins enough to pay for his BMW to get fixed...it'll cost everyone in the state a couple cents. I'll pay your share.

I don't mean to call you out here, but have you ever driven on nice clean roads and then hit a patch of ice? I bet you saved it, didn't you?

hey that one guy knew all about how to steer i forget which car it was but he was in the far right lane and start sliding and saved it pretty nicely with counter steering and all avoided hitting the truck with the flashing arrow and avoided the already crashed people, but i havent seen it since last night so i forget whicih car it was.

That BMW definitely is a classic though.

yea just rewatched it and it was the volvo, i definitely give him tons of credit because he could've demolished his car if he clipped that DOT truck even the littlest bit, it definitely looks like he had done that before.
