Oblivious Trucker Drags Wrecked Car Four Miles Along The Freeway
How it's possible not to see a crashed car hanging off the side of your truck, we don't know, but whatever the cause of the accident, this trucker was unaware until forced to stop by other drivers
This is the moment a passing driver caught sight of a truck dragging a car down an American freeway, apparently completely unaware of the wrecked vehicle hanging off his rear end.
Amazingly, despite the car being massively visible in the trucker’s mirrors, the man who filmed this video says the pair went at least four miles joined together like this. We don’t know how the accident occurred in the first place but the car looks like a certain write-off. As for how the truck driver missed this, we can only assume he doesn’t check his mirrors. Ever.
The video also captures the truck apparently being stopped by another car, shortly after which the driver of the wrecked motor seems to ask the man filming the action to stop.

Would’ve had better luck driving an orange Supra, I guess.
Aww nice to see people helping a citizen in need
Assuming the small red car has added significant amount of drag and utilizing the drag coefficient equation, which is…
Cd = D / (A .5 r * v^2)
I have calculated that this truck driver is an idiot

I knew I shouldn’t have listened to Siri!
I never understood the american obsession with drag racing.
I like to drive, but thelegend27 keeps on dragging me
Insert many F&F memes
you have to remember though that truck/ lorrys/ HGVs have MASSIVE BLIND SPOTS so unless your at least 20 foot back its very difficult to see you. Now Im not saying thats what happened here, by the looks of that car id say he lost control and ended up like that and on a truck that size the driver wouldnt of notice it (probably)
