Almost got creamed yesterday....

If anyone finds a dash cam video of a fully loaded semi trailer car-carrier running off the left side of US 20, because he didn't realize traffic was stopped, and narrowly (4 feet), missing a black F6B in the process, that was me. Ugh....

I'll keep an eye out. I cannot tell you how happy I am that you are able to tell the story. That could have been really bad.

[dumbpartsguy]

Glad you made it thru brother. Lots of crazies out there. Best NATURAL laxative in the world!

[stroguy]

Wooooo Fug! That had to be a sight. Be careful friend.

That is why here in California we split lanes to get to to the head of the pack to eliminate these kinda hazards...

Thanks all. I had to share the experience, especially since someone might find a dashcam video.

On the 20, heading west, near Terrell, TX. Portable electric sign told us to "Be Prepared to Stop", but a few miles went by and no stopping.
Came over a hill and I saw the cars all stopped; I had plenty of time to put my hazards on and come to a nice easy stop in the #1 lane.
When the semi crested the hill, I guess he didn't see the whole mess of red lights. I heard the jake brake, checked my right mirror and all I saw was a 'sideways' view of the cars in the trailer, I let go of the clutch to go to my right as the cab went by my left side into the grassy knoll.
The trailer straightened out, the truck came to a rolling stop, then proceeded to inch his way back up into the #1 lane, about 5 cars in front of me.
A heavily HD tattooed guy in a cage pulled up next to me and said "Bro! You okay? It was THAT close!" and he held up his hands about 4 feet apart.

Since I am still here, I'd like to see a dashcam of the event.

[stroguy]

I would think your mate you were coming to pay respects with may have been your angel on his way to see the lord. Glad you are good.

[BadDawg]

Had the same thing happen to me. Monster 4x4, all I heard was the tires lockup. Fortunately he opted for the barpit. Stop 2 car length past me.

[fxdl2051]

That's pretty unusual, guys that haul cars are usually pretty experienced truckers, 1st time I ever heard of one screwing up bad. Glad to hear you're ok.

Drivers in DFW drive like @#$^. I'm glad you're safe! If you win the lottery from the ticket I highly suggest you buy now, you can get us all new bikes! :)

[lloydmoore1]

Your a lucky man..not your day to go. Glad you got out of that one for sure. Hug the family, then go buy a lotto ticket followed by a good stiff drink with the feet up.
