When their license is suspended, it's NEVER a system error. It's ALWAYS for good reason, and whatever the reason, it most likely happened multiple times
Typical females trying so hard to be man
but the barrier could be stronger. that barrier is like literally for pedestrians. even a passenger car would fly off in slightly higher speed.
Thank God her trailer was loaded just right so she didn't go over.
That's not what stopped the whole truck from going over. If she was loaded? It would've all shifted forward at that angle, pushing the trailer and truck completely over. The trailer got hung up on one of the bridge trusses at the back part of the trailer.
Driving on a suspended license? He says he feels guilty. I wonder how bad he feels
Get your hearing checked. The reporter clearly said, “He feels TERRIBLE.”
He can still have remorse.
Its all about the feels.
Thank God she had a dashboard camera 🙏🏽🙏🏽💙
Sysco has drive cams on all trucks and many companies lately have them
Glad she's ok.. I hope she realizes she was kept on this earth for a reason..She is meant to do something important during her life..
WHY IS THIS VIDEO CAPTIONED SHE ALMOST DROVE OFF THE BRIDGE!?!? SHE WAS HIT BY THE IDIOT DRIVER THAT FORCED HER OFF THE BRIDGE!!
I was THINKING THIS
I lived in Louisville area for years, I avoided this bridge as much as possible because it was very old and VERY narrow, it was barely built to accommodate modern cars let along big rigs. I was always terrified a gust of wind would push me just a few inches over too far in either direction and I'd get hit. Exactly this situation was what I always feared, driving this bridge always felt like a risk
Dangling over the ocean for a hour is Crazy. . . Anxiety
She probably called her love ones to say farewell.
@@Marcus_-sy9fithats sad to think about, poor driver 😕
it’s actually the ohio river! not the ocean, but it is 128ft deep
@@Marcus_-sy9fishe didn’t! she did the best thing she could for her self which was stay still! she said for 40 whole minutes she kept her foot on the break and hands gripping the wheel! she could hear her phone,which has been thrown to the floor, ringing and ringing but she never moved to try and pick it up
@@AspenHMediaI remember laughing when she talked about that part.
I’m so glad this woman was rescued. The lord was on her side. God Bless her ❤️
Vast majority of big truck crashes are NOT the truck driver's fault. But we get the wrap anyway!
I used to drive a truck for a living and saw PLENTY of crashes that were the truck driver’s fault.
No one is blaming the trucker here either.
What are you talking about?
@@TheMichiganFisherman several people here are blaming her. You replied to the guy with the chimp as his profile pic osso. He was blaming her and you got mad at him for it 🤣
83% of crashes involving a tt and a smaller vehicle are the fault of the smaller vehicle.
I don’t believe that when I see big trucks switching lanes as if they’re a small car without proper signaling
The video title sure seems to be blaming the truck driver
How horrifying! Glad to hear that they were able to rescue her.
Why are multiple cars parked on the bridge not defending the guy that swerved into the lorry at all but theres about 3 cars parked no hazzards ligjts on, very narrow bridge like...crazy. Glad the woman is safe and alive!
Drive cam said. “ It’s your fault” following distance..
its the bicyclists fault
must have snapped the tie rod on the steering..you can see she is turning to the right more and more but the truck was going left more and more
Thank you for that information. Am also impressed by the lock jaws and king pin keeping the truck and trailer together.
Bs
Her life flashed right before her eyes... just imagine what she was thinking as her truck was going straight towards the guard rail and over the bridge. She wasn't knocked out, she seen everything. Lord I hope she's ok mentally cause this can really scar a person for life dangling over water like that
Slow down and stay in ur lane
How about don't drive if you're so bad at driving that they already suspended you.
The driver of the pick up truck has ample amount of time to slow down and make sure he has the right away to avoid the car that was at a standstill
Well well well
Paw patrol predicted this
Blindly crosses to other lane
She will need therapy!
Usual suspects….
Stop swerving!
Bro, Paw Patrol the movie pridicted this.
Lmao bro done watch it too many times chase is on the case
Hell of a damn experience. Glad the truck driver is ok.
Nearly drives off bridge?? You mean manages to stay alive after an accident not caused by her.
Shout out to the companies that made the kingpin and fifth wheel.
I hope she went and bought a lottery ticket right after they rescued her.
We're was spider-man!!?
New York rescuing MJ?
we're?
Yeah, we're was the werespider human?
if it wasnt for that dash cam she would be the one facing charges
This is Spiderman 1 all over again. Just waiting for William Dafoe to show up with Ms. Jane.
It's the Rivers fault, because it can't decide what State it belong's to!
😂 There went my Pepsi
It's transitioning...
The Pickup "Driver" represent's the sad majority of those who do not belong on the Road!
Lol what about the woman driving the big rig.
@ICLAIMTHISNAME doing her job. It doesn't take big strong man muscles to operate a semi.
@@ICLAIMTHISNAMEwhat about her huh?
Driving with a Suspended license 🪪 boy O boy homie knows he bout to get it
They about to charged him for the whole bridge 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
stop blurring stuff. we are not children
Lousy clip, no audio, cannot see face.
I'm not understanding how the pickup driver was in the far right lane in the first place where the stalled car was because about 60 yards behind that car were two more cars. He must have swerved over to the far right lane in some sort of effort to get around traffic, realized there was another car stalled and swerved back and overcorrected. Not sure how he wouldn't have been able to see all 3 cars. I'm also not understanding how a truck could have that much effect on a semi.
You don’t understand how a pickup truck hitting a semi truck head on could affect it that much after blowing out the tires and suspension?
Wow…
@@TheMichiganFisherman You don't know that it did any of that. In the video she starts steering all over the place instead of hitting the brakes and veering slightly to the right which she should have done.
@@joeldriver-sp2rgWhich gives more credence to the truck damaging the semi.
Put him in Prison!
She was very lucky to survive?! I say the semi trucks trailer that was carrying stuff saved her from falling any further.
Damn
I hope the truck driver is okay, That would be pretty scary for me too, God's Love..
The driver of the truck was trying to avoid a head on crash with the vehicle in fromt of him. Next the safety precautions that could have been put in place to prevent this type of problem was never installed. I understand that this was a driver did not have his driver's license, but the accident could have been a judge, a cop, a EMS worker , a doctor, a government official. My point is simple, that without the right type of protections put in place the problem could have happened to anyone.
Felt entitled to drive on a suspended license, felt entitled to use the oncoming lane, starting to see a pattern...
When I watched the video I think she called on the Lord He’s the only one that can save I’m almost in tears I’m so glad she’s okay praise God !
She tried to steer to
Right but it just keeps turning left, most likely left tire is stuck or something making turn left.
that Damn pick up truck..awful driver!!
The owner of the bridge should also be charged because of lack of safety. No center divider, no extra railing to stop vehicles from going off the bridge.
They should also sue the owner of the river.
@@user-mw8to4ng9i😂
Harrass and stalk gravity.
yup
@@dorlis1judging by your most recent YT comments, you need a hug. Was mommy ever home? Do you sit on the Internet all day and make edgy comments? Poor kid.
I’m just happy they were able to rescue this poor woman, that must’ve been terrifying. I wish her all the best and kudos to the firefighters. That’s an amazing rescue.
This is the reason to always wear your seatbelt 🙏🏽🙏🏽💕💙💙
I really hope all the best for this trucker. I cannot imagine going through that ordeal. I hope somehow she gets paid big time, I couldn't imagine getting back into a truck or over a bridge again after that. I been over that bridge allot when I was OTR, its a truckers worst fear.
Aint no damn nearly about it.
Change the title of this video… a woman didn’t “drive off the bridge” she was HIT
Did the driver wait for the rescue team? Doesn’t look like it.
Spero aggiungano delle paratie più resistenti anche se è difficile contenere un camion!!
That rescue looked like something out of a movie
The Thing been busy lately
Accidents happen , thankfully everyone was ok. Let’s move on
Someone driving like a fool without a license is not an accident
The person that was pulled over on the bridge should be liable too. Isn't it illegal to pull over on the side of a bridge?
Right, and it was several cars not just one. I can't believe that's allowed.
It stalled out.
Trevor Brenham? Looking at the trucker's video, it appears that Trevor probably passed two OTHER stalled cars, then deked into the right lane to overtake the car in the passing lane; so, a really stupid move and then a criminally irresponsible one to avoid rear-ending the parked car.
Omg 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I’m glad a black sista ok and she young and bless 🖤🖤
She wasn't in control of that truck.
@@ossoduro7794 Because it got hit by another vehicle you Muppet.
@@ossoduro7794 She got hit head on. So prior to getting hit was she in control of the truck?
@@caf0011 Getting hit head-on magically excuses her from maintaining control of that truck?
@@ossoduro7794oh. And I’m sure you could control a semi that gets hit head on, blowing out the tie rod and completely rendering your steering useless 😂
GTFO loser 😂
I used to train drivers at a truck driving school and the women were always much better students than the guys. They didn't know everything about trucks like a lot of the guys did.
Autonomous trucks can't come soon enough.
I feel the same way about my wife
The driver made a bad mistake, but there was a car stalled. Dude just wasn't patient enough.
He was speeding, swerving in and out and didn't have a license
Uh oh.. 911 TV show entered the chat.
3 cars on the side of the road .....
Wouldn't most semis just obliterate any standard vehicle like this truck? Did the truck hit it in a sweet spot that caused her to loose control or something? I've never seen a semi accident where a vehicle that small could actually affect the way a semi is driving, much less cause it to drive off a bridge.
It probably broke something in the steering system. Even just a flat steer tire can cause a truck that size to lose control.
He hit her steer tire. She was just a passenger after that.
Firefighters 🚒 ❤
Tacos ❤
Tacos 🌮❤
You should be ashamed, NBC. The title is so click bait
It's pretty bad actually, kinda leads the reader to think she was at fault, keeping the woman driver stereotype alive
Final Destination
Poor lil man gotta show up in a wheel chair
Wait didn’t they say the blue truck driver swerved to avoid a stalled car? Shouldn’t the driver in the stalled car be accountable? So confused
If the pick up driver had his vehicle under proper control and been paying attention to what was ahead he would have been able to slow down/stop without having to swerve into opposing traffic lane.
The fact the pick up driver was operating while his license suspended should give some clues to his probable competance.
Wow. You’re blaming the stalled car for this?
Cars stall. It’s normal. You go around them when it happens at a safe speed and stay in your lane.
Unreal…
No, the Stalled Vehicle Owner shouldn't be to blame for the negligence of the Pickup Truck Driver!
No one said the stalled driver was at fault the guy being held responsible is the pickup truck driver for driving distracted and driving on a suspended license amongst other charges
she did drive off the bridge, just saying. hopefully this person never drives a semi again as this was totally avoidable had she knew how to drive.
Aww America..where you can be caught/seen on CAMERA COMMITING CRIMES AND ACCIDENTS,AND STILL PLAY NOT QUILTY BS
Kentucky Republican driver with no license
Call the paw patrol lol
Woman driver.......😐
Someone call the Paw Patrol
And when it comes to having a driver's license, thereare so many people thag have a driver's license that are much worse of a driver, having a driver's license does not prove anything in in case. The drive proved that he was able to drive yo the bridge for where his starting location was, and I am sure yhe driver drove the days before.. let me guess the reason the driver was unable to pay for the driver's license was thw cost of insurance companies. I hate yhe leadership and the rich. Period
Losers at life hate successful people. They are envious of anyone that made something of themselves instead of sitting around their cheap apartment getting high and complaining about those that get out and earn a living. That's just how it is.
Wth was she doing swerving over that far? Nobody going to ask that?🤦♂️🤦♂️
E comunque Bernice non teme niente e nessuno..😂
☕
The driver didn’t almost drive off the bridge. And how is her gender relevant? The accident was caused by another driver.
Whoever wrote that is a moron. It makes you think that she intentionally did it.
Fake. Didn’t happen.
What?
@@FriedBuffaloChickenWings Guy is just being a troll
it look fake
@Javaris_Jamar well looking fake and being fake are two completely different things. For most of us, it doesn't look fake. While even doing a simple Google search, you can find the actual news article on it.
Paw patrol
So he's in trouble for avoiding a crash? Sure.
He is in trouble for driving like a moron, not paying attention and driving without a license. He put his own dumb ass in the position by not looking where he was going.
Women.......
Again, it was a man with a suspended license who hit her in the first place 🤡
@yeety6415 perhaps you should study physics or momentum and mass. When a small vehicle hits a 70000 lb vehicle, the operator of the larger vehicle should be able to maintain the large vehicle. But when you're not competent or nit strong enough to handle it then you shouldn't be driving. What's your experience driving heavy equipment? Or are you just crying for women's rights?
Instagram shows the part of the video not shown here where it looks like the woman in the semi was falling asleep
What's his excuse for veering into her lane?
Not an excuse for the other driver to step put of his lane
She had her chin on her hand. She wasn't falling asleep. I do that every night I drive. I have my foot on the grab bar and right hand on the ahifter too. That doesn't mean I am not paying attention
@@Lemmon714_ with your flip flops on in the center lane in a freightliner or Volvo going 10 mph slower than everyone else to I'm sure
@@bobwhite3450 Nope to all of that. You have been watching that moron too much. Do you think that having a bed behind you makes you better than everyone that doesn't like he does? Only a true idiot believes that you have to have a sleeper to be a "real" truck driver. I never wear shoes driving unless I am not in my truck. Even if I drove more than 52 miles a night on an interstate, I wouldn't park in the middle lane. I have no idea how fast my 579 will go since I stopped at 76 and the computer will narc on me. People were trying to blame that girl because she had her hand on her chin and wasn't at ten and two and because she didn't swerve. That is BS. She could have swerved, hit someone beside her and made it much worse, but she did everything she could have done in those few seconds.
Truck driver is at fault for being in the left lane. 100% liable no excuse
There is an excuse. The right lane turns into an off-ramp right after the bridge.
@@colorsafebleach5381 Don't matter they should stay right so faster traffic can get by.
@@Dylan-lb9lg it does matter if she needs to go straight, and not take the exit ramp. I understand that slower traffic needs to stay right. But if the lane ends, you have to move over at some point
Woman!
Black diversity hire!
Just pathetic. It's a not at fault woman driver. And the race and/or sex of the driver has nothing to do with this.
The person at fault was a man that caused the accident. They show him in the video.
So, you’re too dumb, racist, or both to even watch a short video to see factually what happened.
Why she swerve out of her lane?
She should have maintained her lane! I mean, she had the upper hand until she swerved.....
She drive off that bridge!
She got hit by the car (truck). Almost like a PIT from the front.
The truck took out her wheel. She is trying to turn to the right, but she is going to the left.
Lol women
Yup. Damn women drivers😂😂😂
People make this joke not knowing that it was a man with a suspended license who drove straight towards her 🤡 with how he was driving, he could've hit literally anyone else :/
DEI in motion.
An american citizen with a suspended license, arrested and brought up on criminal charges will probably do jail time. But, an illegal invader with no license, no insurance, didn't pass a drivers test, driving an unregistered vehicle with bald tires and no brakes is totally fine. We'll just let them go with a warning.
A woman driving a semi truck! that's the first mistake
How misogynistic
Fires,Trains, Boats And Planes. Looking More and More Like Terriorism.
Those terriers are a sneaky lot.
@@higgs923😂😂😂😂😂
Thats a woman driver alright..
Yes, she avoided hitting other cars and still kept the truck from going completely over the bridge. Protected others and herself after that MAN caused the accident.
Woman driver for sure.
@@ggcatbelladogantics2959 lol ok
stay in the right lane .... right !!!!! your driving a truck the right lane is for you !!
The right lane turns into an off-ramp when the bridge ends!!!!!!
Trucks can drive in any unrestricted lane that they want and you will do absolutely nothing about it except whine.
@@Lemmon714_ drive like a pro not a fkn nappy headed hoe !
Female drivers, no survivors
that could have been anyone, (imo) but i’ve never driven a semi
There’s no way that small pickup truck knocked her truck loose like that. Like a Female, she overreacted and did the most. She should’ve been in the right lane.
@@mrmoxley look at the in cab cam. She cranked the wheel all the way to the right but the steering was fked and momentum took it left
@@mrmoxley How many 🍆 do you choke on a day? Knees must hurt.
@@mrmoxley The truck took out a steer tire...
