There are truckers who do vlogs here in the states, so if you're looking for driving footage, check them out. Some of them are Russian, but they do speak English too. I would show you a really great one but I don't remember what it's called... but it was more mountainous terrain with evergreen trees, and insane views. Edit: Okay I remember the place now. It's called "Donner Pass" ... it's taken many truck drivers lives. Dangerous but beautiful route.
Mr Alba thank you for liking my post. It was from my ❤. I don't think folks understand how dangerous trucking is. You truckers put your lives on the line every time you climb behind the wheel AND you do it for us. It's a tough life and pay sucks so just wanted you and all truckers are appreciated, at least by me. Be safe sir.
Stonehenge replica was built by Sam Hill along with the Sam Hill Museum. Stonehenge was a memorial to the WW1 veterans of Klickitat county. The Museum was built for the queen of Romania. Sam Hill is buried just south of Stonehenge. The original town of Maryhill is just west of Stonehenge. The town that is called Maryhill now, was orginally called Columbus. The first paved highway in the state is Maryhill loops, paid for by Sam Hill. Drove that road a lot.
hey man! your video brought me right back to trucking with my grandpa..the road, the music, the colour of your truck ..everything. it gave me goosbumps the whole ten minutes. I miss him and those days.. thank you that was a good video besides the accident..hopefully the innocent guy is okay. this made my night dude, its crazy how much that took me back..that was so cool how a random video on youtube just did that to me, hope you have a good night and stay safe on the road :)
Dan Alba...I don't understand why people blow you crap, (guess cuz they can),it looked to me like you stopped exactly where you should have, IF, there had been NO car ahead of you, maybe, you could of made your turn. But, it kinda looked like the guy on your left, might of been out there a bit too far for you to comfortably make your turn without taking off his dog house. Absolutely a beautiful video! But STILL...it's not the same as being there! Good Job Man!
The accident was bad enough but I got to see parts of the west coast which I have never seen before so the extra 9 minutes to me was worth it. The scenery is beautiful there.
I was waiting on the truck that was coming down the hill. Did you see how the other truck got hit , I didn't want to get hit, that could've been me, no thanks
Daniel Alba Man your lucky you stayed put I am thinking maybe with your slight roll he thought you wanted him to go first to make your left turn easier but he fer got to look the other way.......just a guess.........that was way to close!
It was very cool to see I'm so glad that it did not hit my truck, I was actually planning on moving up after the car made its turn. Maybe that would have stopped the guy from turning, or maybe not
Daniel Alba But ya know, by staying your ground,as you did,you were actually doing that guy a favor, by giving him some protection from your lane of travel...seems like a friendly thing to do! Piss on right-of-way! You were doing the neighborly thing! Like any good driver woulda done, back in the day!
He forgot what he was driving. He saw that truck barrelling down that hill but thought he could make it. He forgot he was driving a truck and not a car. Short. He became impatient.
@@wbennettjr Yes. His view of the truck was screened by that road sign. If he chose the wrong moment to check left, he would have missed it. That's not to say that it's acceptable, but it was not intentional.
My son is a cross country trucker these videos terrifie me. So all you truckers out there, I am sending you all angels in my prayers. Thank you for all you do! Think l"'ll make this hug a trucker day. GOD BLESS YOU.
I spoke to the driver that got hit, and he said that he thought he saw all the guys blinker. Which was a bunch of BS because there was no blinker at all he just didn't want to wait.
Could his view have been blocked by the sign down the road ? I watched it again and noticed that the oncoming truck was down in the dip and might have been blocked by the sign , maybe ? The sign way down on the side of the road. I agree that the guy should have waited but i also wonder how fast the truck was going.
I can believe that he thought he saw a turn signal. He was watching the truck passing next to a guard rail. I can see how the truck passing by the guard rail could create the illusion of a blinking turn signal. However even if the oncoming truck actually had his turn signal on it doesn't change the fact that you should never trust a turn signal.
so 1 thing I think all you missed was the RV N CAR to MY LEFT just b4 I stopped, there was a family stopped n enjoying the views, n the truck coming the hill didn't want to go that way cause of that family with a 3 month out baby, now imagine if that driver would have went that way or even slammed on his brakes. he would of lost control of his truck. I'm glad he hit the truck instead of the RV N FAMILY. WATCH IT AGAIN.
+Daniel Alba Thank you for pointing it out, I missed it the first time. Thank heavens everyone was ok, and that the truck didn't swing around and hit you. By you posting this video maybe it will save some lives.
Daniel Alba shit where i live 30 min down the highway is a concreet beem plant and trucks always pull out right infront of people going 110kph, fucked up thing is happened to me 3 times everytime the guy looked at me comming and went anyways across both lanes, went in the ditch from one and he did not stop.
***** I deal with far worse intersections on a daily basis and I've been driving for 2 years. The visibility is good and the road is wide. That's really all you need.
Pause it at 6.02 and watch at impact how the trailer and front half of the Volvo 670 and reefer becomes airborn. Lucky he didn't roll over. The reefer was obviously empty and not loaded or it would have been much worse for the driver that struck him. Be careful out there drivers
These are my favorite type of RUclips videos. guys ripping around their turf in bikes, sleds, dash cams in cars and rigs. I watched the whole video not knowing just how serious of footage was about to be captured.
this is my father in laws truck, the driver told him the transmission wouldn't shift and that's why he couldn't get out of the way in time. he found out the truth a year and a half later after seeing this video
It has been mentioned before, but if you stop the video at 5:54 you can see that from the drivers position of the truck thats turning, the truck coming down the hill is probably partly hidden by the big sign. He was probably looking right just after he started moving into the intersection, and when he looked left again it was too late to do anything except continue. This kind of accident happens all the time, but it's still the turning trucks fault for not ensuring it's safe to turn. Did your truck get damaged in any way?
That is a busy intersection on a busy highway! Does there need to have a minimum number of collisions before it can qualify for a traffic signal ? How many lives is it worth this waiting for that number given by statistics ?
pikiwiki Up the road a bit, left side; next to the guard rail. If you pause at 5:56 it's to the left of the truck coming down the hill. I think that's the one he's talking about.
He would have still been able to see up from the sign, and past the sign. He could have stopped his turn or waited so I gotta say he was being impatient
*Would it be alright with you Mr. Daniel Alba to use this clip in an educational video* about accidents and road safety on my main channel DCtv? Credit,and name on the screen, as always will be provided.Also if you have any additional information about the accident (such as location) that would really be helpful. Look forward to your response.
+Xeldinn Hey, I live just down the road from there. Windy and hot in the summer. Windy and cold in the winter. Notice all the wind farms on the hill side?
Actually it's entirely possible and happens all the time. The reason there was minimal damage to the trailer is because he hit it right at the back end of the base where the wheels are.
The roads along the Columbia river are in the middle of beautiful scenery but dang that interchange is dangerous. High winds, winter roads, idiot car drivers, the hikers along the road, make it an area to keep your eyes on the road. Always try to give the big rigs room they need when on that road or coming down 97 can be messy.
I live in East Vancouver, WA. HW-14 is a fucking madhouse sometimes. IMO, it's even worse the farther West you go. I hope that clown lost his job and got a BIG citation. Glad everyone was okay. Did the trucker who hit the trailer get injured at all?
@Daniel Alba . From what it looks to me - the driver turning left was at fault, like you said; not paying attention, and in a hurry. He had plenty of room, IMHO -to notice that other truck coming around the curve, and the sign itself is far enough away from the corner, where it couldn't have blocked his view for more than a second.
That must have been a big shock; at 7:40 you're reporting yourself on the Oregon side on Interstate 84, which, if I recall correctly, is about three miles and one big ass river away.
Had that reefer been loaded... much different impact. That guy coming down the hill would have been killed. I also think that while the dummy that pulled out is clearly at fault, the guy coming east was doing so pretty aggressively, seeing how probably 98% of all eastbound trucks on 14 are proceeding down the hill on 97 to Biggs Jct. Nobody coming north expects a southbound truck to continue east there. Say what you will but if I'm that guy I'm not blasting through there at that speed expecting a free pass. Aggressive driving IMO not defensive at all. Also notice the congestion there at the time of this accident, lots going on. Amazing video.
Too many people at that intersection assume vehicles, especially trucks, are going to turn. When they don't turn, they get a surprise. Not the first accident there. By the way, that area is mid state, across the river from Oregon in the Columbia River Gorge- just south of Goldendale, Wa.
Real fascinated by how the other truckers stopped to help out any way they can. And as far as I can tell it's only truckers. Must be a brotherhood among them.
I hate it when you get to those intersections where they put up real big bushes big signs right at the corner where you can't see past them you either have to pull out too far to look down the road or you have to kind of guess when you can go that might not be the case here but I have ran into this problem.
I live in Australia and I liked the extra footage because we got to see some American countryside.
Come check it out, it's nice! 👌
That depends?
There are truckers who do vlogs here in the states, so if you're looking for driving footage, check them out. Some of them are Russian, but they do speak English too.

it's only like that in the northwest
i think this vid was in east washington
I love the idiocracy in this country!
That steering wheel holder wasnt even supposed to start his left until you made yours! What a goof!
As soon as he started pulling out, it was clear there was no way in Hell he would make it. lol
That was one hell of a hit to
WALMARTS GOT SHIT TO DO, BEEP BEEP
MavianMK You mean Swift.
seen this crash quite a few times but with all the before crash footage which is breathtaking... thanks for posting....
The most important question is, when did Swift start running trailers without their logo?
Oh man, this cracked me up so bad, haha! Sure Wish I Finished Training!
Rental/reserve trailers are usually plain white.
Lonewolf6565 Trucker's joke about Swift being inexperienced.
klaptrap Im aware. But Swift usually does run trailers with their logos...
Jason Low who is swift and what are you talking about

No no no thank you
Thank you Karen I appreciate it. I love the country side n if it's just a video , I still get to see so much.
Karen
Y no picture?
Never seen it so busy in that area before.
fun fact for people who don't know, there's a Stonehenge replica right by there.
It's definitely one of the top 10 henges I've ever seen.
spackle9999 Its right up there with Dickhenge.
It’s a WW1 memorial put up & cared for by the Maryknoll missionaries.
Stonehenge replica was built by Sam Hill along with the Sam Hill Museum. Stonehenge was a memorial to the WW1 veterans of Klickitat county. The Museum was built for the queen of Romania.

Take a trip to California and drive down CA Route 1 if you really want to see the coast and nice scenery
This wasnt the west coast
@@williams9071Washington is part of the west coast
@@HeavyWindBreakGlass Sorry but the 97 does not run on the coast, You do realize that you can be in Washington but not on the coast right?
@@HeavyWindBreakGlass Just Saying that this is probably 2 or 300 Miles inland from the coast
Holy hell! I swore I felt the breeze from the trailer swinging by that was too close.
4ft. ya it was really close. scary n cool at the same time, but the undies stayed clean. lol.
5:55 .....
MovieInventor thanks!
Thank you

im sure thats w hat he thought, but at the same time he should of look more closer and waited a bit longer. no one should ever be in a hurry, no one.
Daniel Alba where is it ? Canada?
Daniel Alba Your right about that what was he gunna gain 30 seconds.....Did you ever hear his story?????
Louisphng1, Washington
Glad no one seemed hurt but I have to admit, the way that trail swung around looked really cool.
It was very cool to see I'm so glad that it did not hit my truck, I was actually planning on moving up after the car made its turn. Maybe that would have stopped the guy from turning, or maybe not

For the actual crash go to 5:50
The magnificent landscape, and cool trucks!
He forgot what he was driving. He saw that truck barrelling down that hill but thought he could make it. He forgot he was driving a truck and not a car. Short. He became impatient.
I have a genuine fear for rigs and their drivers because of this, a lot of them drive in ways that insinuate that they think they're driving a Sedan.
@@wbennettjr Yes. His view of the truck was screened by that road sign. If he chose the wrong moment to check left, he would have missed it. That's not to say that it's acceptable, but it was not intentional.

Daniel Alba i think he was too focused on you letting him out and forgot to check the other way again, ive almost done that before
I have a rule, even if I do think I see a blinker, I wait for them to start turning before pulling out. Wow. Hope everyone was alright.
"Whiskey makes my baby feel a little frisky."
You can only find lyrics like that in a good ol' country song! Lol!
I've seen you comment on many crash vids! Totally not stalking. 😜
+ShadowsandCityLights I was on a crash video marathon. Kinda feeling like doing another one. :P
I love how the Walmart truck is just like peace I'm out of here.
Skip to 5:50 for the crash if you don't want to wait.
rain is a good thing, rain makes corn...omfg...
Damn lucky the truck didn't end up on it's side. Looks like the momentum of the trailer pulled the tractor back onto it's wheels.
I think I'd shit my pants thinking that trailer was going to end up in my lap!
so 1 thing I think all you missed was the RV N CAR to MY LEFT just b4 I stopped, there was a family stopped n enjoying the views, n the truck coming the hill didn't want to go that way cause of that family with a 3 month out baby, now imagine if that driver would have went that way or even slammed on his brakes. he would of lost control of his truck.

+Josh's Model Airplanes Traffic isn't nearly bad enough to warrant a traffic light. It's fine as long as dumbasses use their eyes.

crazy video thanks for the upload. what dash cam do you use?
CRASH AT 6:00, total BONEHEAD MANEUVER. The reason that insurance is so expensive.
Thanks for posting.
Am I the only one who half expected Jax Teller to serve head on in front of him early on in the video?
Don't let know one tell how to edit the video. .it's a beautiful route I enjoyed it. .
I no, that's why I told that guy to fuck off. but thank you
Lol
Daniel Alba sorry for telling you to edit that earlyer. In the other comment. I stand corrected.
Man I so missed going to Washington st. Passed through this intersection so many times coming back from chelan on my way back to LA Produce Market.
Good thing his trailer was empty/low weight otherwise it would not have turned out as well for the oncoming truck
Action starts at 5:55. In case you get tired of listening to country music.
R Diaz THANK YOU
Pause it at 6.02 and watch at impact how the trailer and front half of the Volvo 670 and reefer becomes airborn. Lucky he didn't roll over. The reefer was obviously empty and not loaded or it would have been much worse for the driver that struck him. Be careful out there drivers
love the song on the radio lol. "where I come from rain is a good thing" - Luke Bryan
This videos is so American.. that country music.
Country is good hauling music
glad you like it, country music, got to love it.
Daniel Alba No my taste in music but great video man.
These are my favorite type of RUclips videos. guys ripping around their turf in bikes, sleds, dash cams in cars and rigs. I watched the whole video not knowing just how serious of footage was about to be captured.
Were you ducking behind the dash when they hit? I think I would have been.
Nice video, thanks for sharing.
thank you for watching n not complaining.
this is my father in laws truck, the driver told him the transmission wouldn't shift and that's why he couldn't get out of the way in time. he found out the truth a year and a half later after seeing this video
Description : SOME PEOPLE JUST CAN'T WAIT!
Me: TO BE KING!
Relevant content starts at 5:50. Surprising that he didn't document his breakfast before starting his drive.
It has been mentioned before, but if you stop the video at 5:54 you can see that from the drivers position of the truck thats turning, the truck coming down the hill is probably partly hidden by the big sign.

This kind of accident happens all the time, but it's still the turning trucks fault for not ensuring it's safe to turn.
Did your truck get damaged in any way?
Guy couldn’t take the country music anymore so he just floored it
Man if you would have been a few more feet forward that trailer would have hit you hard you are very lucky.
That is a busy intersection on a busy highway! Does there need to have a minimum number of collisions before it can qualify for a traffic signal ? How many lives is it worth this waiting for that number given by statistics ?
Damn! Good thing you werent any further up wow! Were the people okay? I seen them both walking, but adrenaline does wonders!
gotta say though.. Impressed by the King Pin holding onto that trailer as it got whipped around!
Big sign dead center of the screen. I wonder if that blocked his view of the truck. By the time he realized, it was too late.
don't see any big sign
pikiwiki Up the road a bit, left side; next to the guard rail. If you pause at 5:56 it's to the left of the truck coming down the hill. I think that's the one he's talking about.

It is, thank you. It could be in his line of sight.

that scenery is ugly. it's Washington state
+Xeldinn Hey, I live just down the road from there. Windy and hot in the summer. Windy and cold in the winter. Notice all the wind farms on the hill side?
Steve Sauls Yeah!
The trailer swinging around was close! I almost pooped my pants.
I was actually expecting the truck to smash through the other.
you have watched too many Michael bay movies my friend
sam15mohsen
maybe...but that was a head on t bone. it certainly could have
sam15mohsen Too many Michael Bay films => "expecting the truck to smash through with several unrelated and highly improbable explosions" ... :-P
Actually it's entirely possible and happens all the time. The reason there was minimal damage to the trailer is because he hit it right at the back end of the base where the wheels are.
Marc Zeppieri that and that trailer probably had nothing or pillows in it if it was loaded with car batteries this could have been very bad
That green car in front of you probably has no idea it JUST avoided a crash.
You outside of rock island?
Saw that coming before it happened!!!!
I love how you know what's about to happen with wtf?
Hey man I can't see the video it says unavailable.
The roads along the Columbia river are in the middle of beautiful scenery but dang that interchange is dangerous. High winds, winter roads, idiot car drivers, the hikers along the road, make it an area to keep your eyes on the road. Always try to give the big rigs room they need when on that road or coming down 97 can be messy.
I live in East Vancouver, WA. HW-14 is a fucking madhouse sometimes. IMO, it's even worse the farther West you go.
I hope that clown lost his job and got a BIG citation. Glad everyone was okay. Did the trucker who hit the trailer get injured at all?
6:06 that sounded like final deastion 2 from the pile up where the truck hit the car XDDD
Mt. Ranier or Hood in the background?
I JUST CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT INCREDIBLE FLAVOR!
Was that a British Columbia plate I saw at 6:03?
This happens when you dont have roundabouts in your country... (Not the ideal place but it would definitely prevent crashes like this)
@Daniel Alba . From what it looks to me - the driver turning left was at fault, like you said; not paying attention, and in a hurry.
He had plenty of room, IMHO -to notice that other truck coming around the curve, and the sign itself is far enough away from the corner, where it couldn't have blocked his view for more than a second.
whats your home 20 driver?
That must have been a big shock; at 7:40 you're reporting yourself on the Oregon side on Interstate 84, which, if I recall correctly, is about three miles and one big ass river away.
haha, tell him. he knows not, about TRUCK DRIVING
Was it a Swift driver?
Is that a Great Dane trailer? Boy it took the hit well. I thought it was gonna break apart lol
whats the name of this song 4:22 ?
Anyone else think this guy sounds just like Ray Romano? "Jesus Fucking Christ" sounded JUST LIKE RAY!
Beautiful Mt Hood!
did the driver get charge of pulling out in front of the other truck
whats the name of song from 3:02 ?
I wish that I had a dash cam during my OTR trucking career. I would of had so many videos to upload here on RUclips.
If you go through it frame by frame, you can pinpoint the exact moment the guy in the green Volvo was shitcanned.
Anyway what was the speed limit on that rode?
zygi22 that section of WA-14 is 55mph if I remember right
Had that reefer been loaded... much different impact. That guy coming down the hill would have been killed. I also think that while the dummy that pulled out is clearly at fault, the guy coming east was doing so pretty aggressively, seeing how probably 98% of all eastbound trucks on 14 are proceeding down the hill on 97 to Biggs Jct. Nobody coming north expects a southbound truck to continue east there. Say what you will but if I'm that guy I'm not blasting through there at that speed expecting a free pass.

Hay Dan was that your dash cam? This is mike from riverbank high.
Hey Mike yes it was my dash cam, how are things with you
Thank God it was not you God bless and stay safe out there!!!!
Did he try to stop because there's no tire marks from a hard brake??just curious about that.
not really, but he did turn into the trick to avoid the RV to his left with a new baby n family.
been through that junction many times. you don't go without a clear hill as far as you can see. they come down there awful fast!
Anyone who drives the secondary roads in eastern Wa knows to be extra careful, or they should. That goes for cars as well as trucks.
Too many people at that intersection assume vehicles, especially trucks, are going to turn. When they don't turn, they get a surprise. Not the first accident there. By the way, that area is mid state, across the river from Oregon in the Columbia River Gorge- just south of Goldendale, Wa.
Walmart said fuck this i am already in trouble.
how. can you be that disconnected ?
?
Where is this? The view is awesome!
Thank you
Intersection of US 97 and WA 14 in Washington State, just across the river from Biggs Junction, OR.
Well balanced load there. Just bounced sideways.
hum a trucker listening to country music... imagine that.
AT GOLDENDALE,WA...
Does not look like the downhill semi never hit the brakes. Should there have been tire marks on the road?
Real fascinated by how the other truckers stopped to help out any way they can. And as far as I can tell it's only truckers. Must be a brotherhood among them.
glad that trailer didn't come crush you in your cab. everyone is lucky it was empty.
I hate it when you get to those intersections where they put up real big bushes big signs right at the corner where you can't see past them you either have to pull out too far to look down the road or you have to kind of guess when you can go that might not be the case here but I have ran into this problem.
Made me want to randomly drive about in GTA San Andreas.
Not trying take the blame away from Obvious Offender, but I think oncoming truck driver had a chance to save the day
Thats one hell of a strong kingpin to hold an 80,000 pound blast!!! I would be trying to find out who made plate/pin.
