just for reference, original vid.
as i see it the truck is left hand drive, but at the initial impact the driver got thrown to the right side, and then to the left ejecting him out of the vehicle.
(those cabins wobble A LOT)
Dunno, it still seems a bit unreal that the impact was enough to throw him to the one side of the cabin and then back and through the window... What a freak accident though, like pinball lol
it just seems like that...im learning on those atm, so i know how those things act D:
when u drive over a railway with ur car at 30 mph all is nice...do that with a truck and ull feel like ur in a rollercoaster.
its insane...and he surely wasnt wearing a sealtbelt.
same for me...till i started doing my license for it
u wont believe how "difficult" it is when u actually drive it urself...u gotta check fo so much more compared to driving a car.
best example is turning left at a intersection...with a car u just drive on whenever the road is free...with a truck u dont.
u check if the opposite lane is free, u check if the front of ur truck is free (HUGE deadzone) u check if left and right is free (ur truck/trailer WILL swing into other lanes) and finally u can turn...its darn difficult at the beginning.
The canister is from one of those manual water vending machines that are sitting ontop of it, they're usually 10L. Though the canister in the picture seems to be made of glass so perhaps it's just an ordinary canister used to store something flammable.
