Watch A Maxima Get Dragged Down The Highway By A Semi Truck



Here’s our quiz question for today: How did the truck driver in this video not notice he had a mid-sized sedan wedged under his back bumper?

To our eyes, the only way this could have happened was that the Maxima’s driver cut too close to the truck when pulling out to pass, struck the trailer’s wheel with the front corner of the car and got reeled in like a 1,500-kg metal fish.

We don’t doubt the truck driver may not have felt the impact, but we have a hard time believing he wouldn’t have suspected something was wrong based on the cloud of white smoke pouring from the general area of the back of his rig, not to mention the stream of drivers honking horns as they drove past.

The post accompanying this Facebook video says the incident occurred on Interstate 15, which starts in California, near the Mexican border, and then ends at the Canadian border with Montana. The car bears California plates, so based on that and the envy-inducing sunny weather, it’s a safe bet this happened closer to I-15’s southern end.

Check out the video and tell us what you think.

Well, to my eyes, what probably happened is that the truck changed lanes, and the rear bumper on the trailer hooked the wheel well on the car, and the driver, probably hopped up on drugs, didn't notice.

Extremely unlikely. More like the car driver was texting instead of driving.

You're both
You missed the whole point, stupid ... but why would I expect any better from someone whose mouth opens, eyes go dim and you can read "Maid in USA" on the back of his skull?

Trucker was trolling for a car and caught one. Your catch? Idiocy ... as usual. Go play a 911 tape and feel proud

Truckers have difficulties choosing the correct words to complete their written sentence.

I believe the word you were looking for is Made as in "Made in USA"

You simply prove my point... truckers are stupid. I think maids are smarter than truckers. :)

I would not expect you to know the difference. You are a stupid truck driver after all.
