On a truck you have HUGE blind spots. Not hard to miss stuff.

You have to be a complete moron to hit the back of an 18-wheeler (the largest and most visible vehicle on the road, especially at night with their trailer reflectors!) especially on a major highway as the rigs always travel at or above the speed limit on flat interstates.

The truck driver didn't look at his mirror EVEN ONCE!?!? In 5 ****ing miles? What a retard. Ya, sure they have blind spots but that isn't one of them!

You know, I've seen that vid for years and I still don't get how he breaks the tires loose.

Obviously he lifts after passing the first rig, but the Corvette is Front-engined and doesn't have lift-oversteer like 911's of old.

Does it?
