Wreck is an understatement!
He's awfully lucky that I-beam didn't put a permanent deep crease in his head!
Probably texting....

I bet there was another truck ahead of him. He was speeding and quickly switched lanes to pass, not realizing the truck ahead of him was stopped/going much slower.
If you look at the pictures, there are no skidmarks in line with his tires.

Dude is very lucky to have basically minor injuries after seeing those pics. And good thing he ducked when he did.
