    I came across this accident today in what appeared to be an 18 wheeler making a normal wide sweeping right turn with someone in a small compact car trying to jump ahead of the truck on the right side. The car ended up completely under the trailer. It looked bad but I heard nobody was hurt. I could have the circumstances wrong but this is what it appeared like to me.

    Had a guy try to do this to me in Rhinelander WI a few years back…….
    Said he did not see even 1 of my 5 turn signal lights on that side ….
    Should have seen how big his eyeballs were when I got to his car

    Saw that yesterday, looked a lot worse from the drivers side of the semi. That truck driver was none too happy.
