Dashcam footage reveals truth after merging car files faulty insurance claim to blame semi

A woman filed an insurance claim within an hour of crashing into a semi, stating she wasn’t at fault after merging in front of the driver on a busy road in Sydney, Australia.

Luckily, dashcam footage of the incident proves the driver was in the wrong. The Sedan can clearly be seen turning straight into the semi-truck, causing the accident.

The video evidence was posted to Ross Transport’s Facebook page on August 25.

“This is what truck drivers are dealing with on a daily basis,” says Ross Transport manager, True Ross, on the company’s Facebook post.

“This car driver blamed our driver for causation of the accident and we received a phone call from their insurance company within one hour of the accident requesting a hire car and admitting our driver at fault,” says True.

“Thank goodness for our cameras for evidence and proof for our drivers.”

“What this car driver doesn’t realize, is how lucky she is to be alive, making a silly decision like this.“She was lucky there was no other cars on the right-hand side and she did not end up between the dog trailer and the truck.”
