Here's The Awkward Moment A Truck Carrying A Nuclear Weapon Got Rear-Ended

This video captures the moment a massive US Air Force convoy hit a slight snag, resulting in an armoured vehicle hitting the back of a truck which apparently housed a nuclear weapon

The uploader of this video seems pretty convinced the white truck is carrying a nuke, and as it certainly does look like the payload transporters used by the United States to ferry about its nuclear arsenal, that’s a fair assumption.
