Truck spins E-Class in the tunnel - 04-25-2007, 09:34 AM

this is not a youtube footage so you guys have to go to the website, and be patient, check your firewall so it will allow the video to stream. Click on the link, and then select "terrorizing trucks". They will show the footage about half way into the video. They interviewed the driver in the video, just click on "truck crash survivor" - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

This video footage was captured by the Channel 9 news team while filming for a story about dangerous truck drivers. Basically they were filming the traffic conditions behind their car when suddenly the truck behind tried to change lanes. The truck driver failed to see the E class on his left, and tapped the rear end of the E. This then send the E class to a half spin and now the side of the E is smashed onto the front of the truck. The truck driver didn't feel, see or hear anything and kept going for another 120m, while the E class is stuck to the front of the truck. Eventually the truck driver stopped and took a look.

The E class driver was unhurt, amazingly he drove the E back to work, then after work he drove it to the repairers. He says the car still goes in a straight line no problem at all. You will be amazed by how little damaged was caused to the car, the side windows didnt' even shatter.
