So you're telling me, you've never been on the motorway, realised you need to turn off then moved into the off-ramp slightly faster than you would normally? Of course not, you'd have just cruised past the turn off, to the next available one and recalculated your route!

I don't think anyone cutting in like that DESERVES to cause that amount of carnage on the road, maybe you'd be quite happy to see that everyday bearing in mind the driving standards on UK roads......

No he didn't. I didn't say he did. I said the car driver did.
So what if it HAD been a car full of kids ... what about the emotional trauma and damage to the truck driver as he smashed them all into little pieces.
The car driver was a ****.
Yes, that's correct. I haven't. I can read road signs. Can't you? ... but I can't see through lorries, can you?
No need.

No, never read a road sign in my life!

If you believe that you're deluded. People know the dangers of driving with mobile phones, I'll say no more.......

The driver of the silver car has done a very dangerous move that could of ended bad for her and any occupants of her vehicle.I am just glad that for all parties involved no one was killed,but i think its one of those accidents that unless you know all the ins and outs for example her experience on the road as a license holder,her mind set etc...it would be a bit harsh to jump to conclusions,and on reflection she should be more then aware of how lucky she is that no one was killed and that she is able to live another day.Its a bad mistake that she made and i doubt that she would ever make that same mistake again,lesson learned i say.SJ.

If they're that close the the truck they've pulled in behind that they can't see down the slip road then they're too close imho. They ended up that close because the they had to leave enough room (even thats questionable) for the truck in lane 2 meaning there wasn't really enough room. So as far as I'm concerned the driver WAS impatient and to exit at that junction they should have been behind the truck filming at a bare minimum.......No body deserves that to happen but they can't really moan that it has when driving like that! VERY lucky not to end up 6 feet under though!

Tbh she suould of pulled in behind the lorry and allowed herself enough time to see into the next lane to make sure it was clear before pulling into it, she never she jst went straight over into it. It was a shame and im glad she was ok but it was totally her own fault, unfortunately recently i see a lot of female drivers driving like complete ***** and it seems to be getting worse with them too.

OMG moment when the line of stationary traffic appeared. Presumably the car involved was LHD which didn't help the situation. Thought the truck driver with the onboard camera did well to hold his line or the situation could have been worse.

They weren't behind the truck, they moved over and didn't take any notice of the traffic. When you look at how far the traffic stretches after the crash and before the turning it wasn't a rash decision to pull in at the last minute.
Probably stuck behind traffic then pull over as we can't see the before footage.
It's an error of judgement a seasoned driver would not make.

If you look at the video and my comment you will see they didn't leave it till the last minute as it still doesn't show the exit after the crash as its too far ahead, and after the crash someone is still entering the exit lane but is doing it with a bit more sense and even after that the exit isn't in sight!
