I still can't believe that ! I bet that driver was literaly pooing themselves, rightly so as I would of been !

[TDHAA]

Most peoples worst nightmare!!

I'll bet they find colours unknown to man in there underpants

[quattrostyle]

damn how can you ever not notice that?

[denniselbows]

that lorry driver must of been half a sleep not to have none something wasn't right .dread to think what the end result of that was

[denniselbows]

you would of thought the people filming it would of done more to stop him

[Jonnybravo]

I would imagine not a lot except the lorry stopped and the people in the Clio got out and fainted

I'm not 100% sure that footage is real, surly the cars tyres (especially on the nearside) would be pouring off smoke. Though I suppose the road does appear to be wet and it is shot in a highly convincing manner. Maybe the cars driver had done something retarded that also greatly enraged the lorries driver to end up in that predicament

fook me

[Jonnybravo]

fook me

I can imagine the driver of the Clio said something similar !

Its real, there is no doubt about that, quite suprised the news haven't picked up on it yet !

[K Simmonds]

Yeah, I've watched it a couple of times now and I'm as sure as can be it's real. I'd love to know how it happened, there's no way that lorry driver was unaware of the car wrapped around his grill, imagine driving your S2 with a mope-head tied to the front.

I recon the clio pulled out from an inside lane infront of the lorry without checking their mirrors and the back end clipped the front of the cab, gently spinning the car onto the front of the cab. If the lorry driver had his radio on or was shifting at the time he may not have heard the car hit the front?? Somehow!
Either that or the trucker pulled into an inside lane and didnt see the clio having a similar effect?
Bloody scary stuff!!

Definitely can be real, it certainly happens in the US with "conventional" (bonneted) trucks with even less visibility ...I wouldn't be surprised if that's a blind spot but a lot newer wagons have a downward-facing mirror above the screen to see cyclists and the like ...in a straight line and on a wet road there's no reason to feel it, and even with direction changes it might feel little different from a slightly deflated tyre on the truck...

Holy **** that looks scary!!!
