This is amazing. That driver is incredibly lucky.
I always make certain not to be too close and tailgate in the Cobra but now I'm backing off even more.

Very lucky escape for any gender though.

Something similar happened to my cousin in the mid 60,s. Well sorta similar..........he got caught behind a cattle truck going up the Great Dividing Range here in Oz-Just a truck with gates on the side nothin' fancy. He however was in a bug eyed Sprite- No passing lane except that is for the big heffa on back of course....was a beautiful day, sun out, nice & warm good top down weather. He thinks that cow had been eating clover........!?!
When he arrived at our place I told him his car looked like Sh#t and he smelled like it too !! LOL
Oh the joys of open air driving !

Really... in a left hand drive car?
Perhaps, the footage is inverted, who knows!
Scary stuff...! |

Once let my son drive my car,he took it down a road I knew had a rock working it's way up through the tar.I reminded him of it,he nervously drove over it and the Lakewood bell housing flange hit it, I was a tad anxious.Since then trimmed the flange and a lot more vigilant about know bad roads.As we all know they are certainly getting worse.Shame on our politicians!

The story goes that the woman driving was upset that these two vehicles were blocking both lanes, so she decided to film them and "report their behaviour to authorities." Woooooo.
Ironic as, to my eye, she was following the truck ahead too closely (one second, or less). And which is the offense the cops should cite, from a road safety point of view...?
Next she gets the bright idea to post the video on YouTube, at her young son's prodding, to see how many hits it'll get. This draws media attention and now she goes on local TV. Hmm, what a star.
IMO, this stupid busybody is incredibly lucky that she wasn't speared by that 2x4. If I were her, I would be too embarrassed at my own stupidity to seek public attention. Better to get the windshield fixed, keep my mouth shut and count my lucky stars.
