VIDEO: Trucker forced to make a major save after bad merge by motorist

Published:

Traffic cameras were rolling in Florida to catch a trucker responding to a dangerous lane merge made by a motorist.

The video was captured on July 17 on northbound I-75 at mile marker 361 in Marion County, Florida.

In the video you can see the driver of a light colored car driving a center lane on the interstate. The motorist appears to notice a previous crash site, responding by swerving suddenly into the outer lane, striking a semi truck. The semi truck is pushed off the road onto the shoulder. The vehicle jackknifes, but the driver is able to straighten it out and come to a safe stop on the shoulder.

Take a look at the video below.
