Never really take exit's last minute, certainly won't now! Glad the women survived that as that wasn't particularly stupid driving.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

The truck driver who filmed this done very well to hold his nerve and not swerve to try and miss it.

Wasn't?  You sure?
Driving at c60mph into a space you can't see is clear = stupid in my book.
But I'm pleased and surprised in equal measure that she survived.

I disagree! That was the absolute definition of stupidity in my opinion  :confused:

I think he ment he doesn't take exits last min, if that what you ment. Makes you think just how deadly a car can be even tho she survived

TBH, I've done similar moved into a lane without REALLY knowing what's there - assumption is the mother of all f*ckups... she did well to survive that.

Hmm, with the shear amount of HGVs on that road overtaking each other I could quite easily see how she would've gotten exposed in lane two behind a slow moving overtaking truck, where as lane one would have another truck in.. Yes she made a bad mistake, but sure as hell paid for it too.
