Watch as trucker makes evasive maneuver to avoid rig barreling across median

A truck driver was forced to make an evasive maneuver to avoid another out of control tractor trailer in this scary video. 

In the clip, the filming trucker is traveling down a highway when another commercial vehicle from the opposite side of the highway clearly loses control and comes barreling straight toward him. 

The filming driver then moves into the right lane, just ahead of a pickup that is already slowing down and getting over, and is quickly slammed by the out of control rig’s trailer as it overturns and slides. 

The filming driver seems to be okay based on his response, and he probably also saved the pickup driver’s life by getting between them and the sliding rig. 

Watch the evasive maneuver below.
