Trucker Misses Highway Exit, Backs Up and Hits 2 People on a Bike
Last Wednesday afternoon, 38-year-old E. G. B. died after suffering a serious motorcycle accident on the the highway near an exit in Brazil. A truck driver missed the exit and the driver put the truck in reverse, driving for more than a minute, when it hit a motorcycle, which had two occupants, who ended up hitting the back of the truck. The Advanced Support Unit was called and arrived on the spot, but unfortunately the motorcycle driver was already dead but the passenger was rescued alive. A local funeral home was called, collected the body and sent it to the IML to be later released for funeral and burial. |

Stupid thing for the truck driver to do but i think the bike driver should have gone to Specsavers.

Just to fill you all in, in the near lanes, a cube truck passes by the camera position on this lightly traffic'd highway. For the next solid minute, nothing happens. Go to 1:10 for the money shot. |

Only in Brazil will you see a big rig driver drive in reverse for a solid minute on a major highway. |

They would have hit that truck whether he was backing up or not. WTF??? Did they not even SEE IT?!? What if he had broken down, and stopped? Would they have just run into the back of the truck then? Probably! |

~ Another four-eyed heavily insulated fathead lost his sense/perception of traffic safety mindfulness, so he crashed. ~ Even if the truck was backing up it would have still looked like it was slowing down, so the fathead should have slowed down enough not to crash. ~ However if there were white backup lights combined with red brake lights they must have confused him. |

YESSSS! I was about to say the EXACT same thing. Not only that, but they could have easily turned into either adjacent lane and gone on their way, but NOOOOO. I think they did the world a favor taking themselves out of the facking gene pool. If that picture is of the dude who died, then yeah, he DEFINITELY did the world a favor. He's got one of those stupid fat-fuck faces you just want to punch in on general principle |
