very interesting. handing out smart pills to everyone down there

3JsVette

Bad night for the Corvette and it's driver. That truck showed some indecision, was in the outside lane, put the signal light on and turned. Unfortunately the Corvette in the inside lane didn't have the time to react or see the truck cutting over in front and they collided. Well it's all on camera so the lawyers and insurance companies can fight this out. Hopefully no serious injuries.

The truck is at total fault here...and he just drove off?!

Don Rickles

Who really, hit who? It could be argued the car hit the truck.....I know silly but......

The truck driver pulled over on the lot......

C3 4ME

Couldn't really tell if the Corvette was trying to race to catch up to the Mustang (if that's what it was, I couldn't really tell, but the truck made a right turn from the center lane. Sooo, techinically I'd say it's all the truck's fault.

I thought the other car looked like 911

Don Rickles

Just for the sake of argument, the truck had his turn signal on the entire time. Notice how slow the red car cautiously passed it...I think the two cars were street racing (playing) with each other. I see blame partially on the vette driver too....Just saying

billcarson

no doubt about who is at fault here.people do not know or care about "right of way".i am cut off almost daily and have altered my driving to early morning trips when possible.lot of the fun has gone out of driving i'm afraid and i feel bad for all you guy's who have restricted your c3 trips because of it.

The mustang-whatever slowed down for the truck then got pissed and goosed it to pass the truck. The vette was driving along normal speed not accelerating. Truck pulled out from the far side to make that right. Probably distracted by the Mustang banging gears by him. Turn signal does not give you the right of way. And the front fender of the truck hit the rear of the vette as it was almost by him. Truck driver is buying...

I would like to sit in the court room during this trial, maybe like a small mouse in the corner

Don Rickles

Surely the vette driver's getting paid. I would think this person has been injured, maybe minor but hurt (I know I would be ).....

My statements above will likely be used by the truck drivers lawyers......I have my doubts that it will ever get to "trail".

No chrome, no harm.... Just joking!

FINWOLF

The way it looks to me truck is wrong. illegal right turn truck is fault.

dennis

1st rule of the road.......... keep right/pass left( unless of course your that A-hole in the left lane on a 3 line interstate).

Big2Bird

The truck driver was a dumb azz.

STINGRAY1WORD

The corvette should of been hibernating in a warm garage under warm car cover.

PainfullySlow

Exactly! Why should anyone actually drive their car?




You are aware that some people, you know, drive these things. Right?


The vette driver was in his lane, driving correctly. The truck made an illegal right turn from the center lane. That is the end of the discussion as far as law is concerned.

Now, if that were me I certainly would have slowed down and been a lot more cautious had I been driving the C3 but as far as I know that is not legally required in that situation.

On a positive note, there were two very solid poles that vette could have hit. At least the car was stopped by a cable that had some give.

Rescue Rogers

the truck pulled into the corvettes lane. Crossing a line is entering a different lane. Any accident is the responsibility of the person entering someone elses lane.

Had this conversation with officers about passing bicycles riding 2 or 3 abreast. Dont cross tthe line. stay in your lane
