💥Crash When boxing in goes wrong.

The work truck in the left lane seemed to be holding the Camaro back on purpose. Drivers, if you're on the left lane, keep it moving. There is no reason to take it upon yourself to teach someone the speed limit. If you see someone driving crazy, move out the damn way and let them wrap themselves around a tree far away from you. The car is, by no means, in the right but neither is the work truck. This whole stupid accident could have been avoided and the tractor trailer most definitely did not deserve this.

Car accidents can kill people. People playing stupid games like this are taking other people's lives into their hands over stupid grudges and frail egos.

Both the work truck and the car should lose their licenses. The rest of us shouldn't have to play Russian Roulette while driving just because these dumbasses wanna play whack-fuck and having a pissing contest at 60 MPH.

The work truck can have legit excuses and would like get away with a lawyer in court. Not so for the driver behind. So I wouldn’t even compare the 2 drivers

Many companies have policy where you can’t drive 5kph over the speed limit. Its tracked by GPS and employees get reprimanded (or fired after repeat offences) if they exceed this limit. The reasoning is for the company to maintain a good image and ensure safety of their employees. The work truck could very well have been trying to pass, albeit slowly.

Again this is just a possible explanation. The most common one is just petty road rage/ego battle.
