Could MegaDrivingSchool be any more *****STUPID***??? At 0:53 and 1:53 and 4:15 and 5:54 you made some of the stupidest most uneducated remarks about truck drivers, those were 100% the car (4-wheelers) fault. Because you are not from America, SHUT UP and let the "dash cammers" do the talking. What proves your lack of education is at 7:25, what is a "carriageway"? No roads in the USA are called that.

Once again another crappy job of doing captions. Did this channel change owners because whoever does the captions writes like a stoned 13-year-old

Your captions suck worse than ever

I’m starting to believe that whoever runs this channel does not have a clear grasp on traffic rules.

You may be right. ​@@dlinkster

@@dlinksterprobably never driven anything ever.

That merge setup is also 💩

He’s going to be partly at fault he seen it coming and didn’t take action to avoid crash

AGREED!!!!!

LMFAO thank god i wasnt the only one confused by the captions

Thank you.

Yes.

100% agree, they are bullshit.

100%

I think a lot of people have that impression because there are ads that say owner/operators can easily make $100k+ in a year, especially if they're OTR or have any specialty ratings. However, they fail to mention the amount they're paid for the job has to cover fuel, maintenance, insurance, food, etc. After all expenses are paid, most truckers still take home a decent living, but definitely not what I'd call "a lot."

There will always be one who doesn’t know.

And right of way vs right away.

don't hold your breath.

It's the classic "there, they're and their" situation.... It's a lost cause😅

non-natives sometimes go to "default mode" and then the typing happens that way ^-^'' How do I know? I usually realise 15 minutes after I posted what I wrote XD

And a prompt change of pants.

Depends what you do. If you haul freight you won’t make a lot.

My thoughts exactly. Stop assuming things people it doesn’t do ANYTHING!!!!

That was a typo. He meant to say, "He might have drank too many Caesars."

@@pazuzu7119? Here Caesar is a pizza company lol

@@Vampyrr In Canada, we have a Caeser cocktail.

It's far less than 80%

While not his fault it's easier to let off and let the guy in. He can see him coming and he's trying to get in. That's what makes the difference between a professional driver and a regular one. Would have saved a lot of headache.

@@xtina818 I think it would have been safe for the loaded trucker to assume the minivan would have either slowed for faster moving traffic or gassed it since they were ones merging but they did neither - The truck driver could have slowed some in anticipation for the other driver merging poorly like they ultimately did but I'd still fault the Chrysler Pacifica driver 100%, they should be ticketed as well.

@@Stressless2023Do you assume people are going to run red lights? Do you assume people are going to stay on their side of the roadway? Do you assume people will turn from the correct lane? Yes, yes and yes. So why don’t we assume people will merge properly? Trucker did nothing wrong here. Merging traffic yields, except Illinois, and people need to learn that.

​@@TruthHurtsFAFO NO I do not. Everyone should ASSUME all of those things you named to prepare themselves for careless drivers, it's called defensive driving - If YOU don't want to help potentially save YOUR life or property against other negligent motorists then that's YOUR business - I didn't say the trucker was "wrong", I simply said they could have prepared and anticipated the van driver in an attempt to avoid or lessen the severity of the accident.

@@Stressless2023 You people take this DEFENSIVE DRIVING shit too far and pawn blame on the victims. Maybe the dumbass who failed miserably at merging should practice some DEFENSIVE DRIVING and not pull out in front of traffic going slow as shit, causing an accident. You’re welcome.

I like rewatching vids that end up different channels. Making sure there are only single instances is too much work.

@@clayz1 I'm not talking about different channels. All of these clips appeared in other videos on THIS channel already. Hell, sometimes we even get the same clip more than once in the same video.

yea usually i wouldnt complain but for a second i wondered if this was a reupload by just how many i had already seen

​@@MikoAsiaSo glad I'm not the only one who noticed. MDS is severely slacking these days. I'm almost to the point of just not watching them anymore.

Completely agree. The comments about these truckers- completely unnecessary

I was thinking something similar in many of the clips. "Going too fast! Slow down. Slow down! Slow down, you... too late!" I've been guilty of going a bit too fast in bad conditions once, but saved by cruise control. Torrential downpour with visibility around 4 car lengths ahead. 80KpH in a 110KpH zone. Turn cruise control on... two seconds later it drops out due to detecting loss of traction. Let speed drop to 75KpH before turning cruise control on again, and it held since traction was okay at that speed. Reach next town... rain stops, completely.

Yup.

From a defensive driving standpoint, the trucker might have slowed sooner, when he saw that the van wasn't going to attempt a safe merge, but all the fault is on the van.

@@jonathanljohnson From a defensive driving standpoint, the van driver is responsible to safely merge when it is clear to do so.

It does seem like this video was put together for the purpose of shitting on some truck drivers.

@@Genious. Truck drivers do about 99% of the "shitting".

There was a bus with the stop sign out, completely the trucks fault. The car HAS to stop when the bus’s stop sign is out.

@@Doc4Death Five seconds is an unreasonable amount of time to expect a truck to stop. Thats how long it took from the top the bus flipped on its yellow lights until the truck got to it. The bus should have put the lights on earlier than that and the car should have been more aware of its surroundings.

Right? I drive a coupe when not in my bus, and I get it. It's hard to se through us. So I'm always looking in those mirrors for a potential collision. Always looking to dive to the shoulder or ditch, or to the left, cuz I don't want to be a 2-door sandwich on a Big Rig bun.

It's treated as a yield in that case

its a construction zone.. speeds should be reduced and awareness should be heightened..

Yes, it's terribly inconvenient if merging traffic has to slow down or even stop. Let's put the blame anywhere except where it should be

Always said exactly that. Here in new zealand. My truck n trailer unit is 23metres long. 10axles. 60ton gross. Which is about 120,000Ibs incl freight and my fat ass. At out speed limit of 90kph it takes 70-100metres to come to a stop safely. A car is 4-5m long. Rarely more than 2ton. At 100kph it takes 20 or so metres to stop. Do the math. Wish trucks had the luxury of maneuverability like cars do. But they don't. And it will still be a truckies fault. Most truck haters forget we were car drivers before getting truck licenses. Bad truck drivers are generally bad car drivers to. It's the lack of education which is the problem 💯

Here in my state the average driver pay is over $30/hr. I don't know that your math is mathing.

@@barix9495 Admittedly I was using hyperbole but for the most part the industry in its entirety has been getting worse for a long time.

3:10 What's the school bus driver doing with the flashing lights on,on THAT hwy.? Trucker WAS going to fast for those conditions,though.

@@markbonner1139 What's the bus driver doing? Unloading or loading children. WTF?

@@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC Right rofl. You can SEE THE KIDS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

The school bus is primarily at fault here ( for not stopping at the shoulder on a road with a hhigh speed limit ) then the Highlander for stopping without noticing what is behind him then the trucker .

“EvErY oNe FoRgEtS hOw To DrIvE wHeN iT rAiNs!!!!” ****causes a pileup because they are driving like it’s dry.

its smoke from a fire it probabaly only a quarter mile of that

@@drdelirious8899 Yeah ... I've seen several of those horrible pile-ups where big truckers thought they could drive through a quarter mile of snow.
