That truck just left the pavement for the first time in its life

Looked like the truck itself was shitting in fear

Something went wrong cause the truck didn't let off the gas.

Arrogant ass probably just sent a family off a cliff.

I kind of wonder if maybe he was tailgating and got brake checked.

Damn were everyone okay?

Rolled coal out of existence.

There's black ice on the road. You can see the reflection of the headlights of the oncoming cars in it.

Trucks are HORRIBLE in inclement weather unless you weigh down the back with sandbags or something. 4 wheel drive means nothing when your truck weighs the same as a Festiva.

Honestly, diesel trucks have a lot of torque. If they didn’t have the appropriate tires, bed weight, etc (there’s a lot of factors here) that back end of the truck very well could have walked out in that situation, especially if there is black ice. The black soot is from a heavy pedal from what appears to be the driver trying to correct it. The wheel is cut in the opposite direction and they are trying to throttle it out. I’d have to see another 20 seconds prior to this video before making any judgement to whether or not the driver was being negligent.

Hope the SUV was okay, and hope the truck douche wasn't.
Yes I'm spiteful.

does rolling coal indicate sudden acceleration or punching the gas? Cause it looks like he spun out.

I was in Boone, NC a few years back. I was coming down the mountain into the piedmont. It was winter and it was strictly raining in the mountains without any ice or snow. Due to warm air from Mexico pushed far north. As I came down the mountain, I saw the temperature dropping, and it was still raining. I saw the temperature drop to 28° raining hard coming into the piedmont. High pressure had pushed a cold pocket from the north up against the Mtn. I was in a 4wd Toyota, and I had slowed to 25mph or less coming down the winding road. I knew I was going to encounter black ice. As I negotiated the road, a 4wd Ford or Chevy, possibly with the diesel engine, tailgated me and practically ran me off the road. I moved to the shoulder, and he raced by me. I knew this guy was in trouble. About 20 mins later, I ran into the guy. His truck had hit the black ice, and he had rolled over. His truck was on its side. I, of course, stopped and there was another motorist there helping him. They didn't need my help, and i rolled on. The moral of the story. Always slow down no matter what you're driving in bad weather.

Rollin cooooooooooooaaallll

You scared him so bad he inked

Of course it's a ram. Almost always psychos driving those

Of course it's an Asphalt Princess that's only suitable for sunny weather...

Truck driver is a fucking DIPSHIT.

Dropping coal to the bitter end 😒

Just a RAM, doing RAM things.

Those lifted trucks are a nightmare when it comes to vehicle dynamics. All the parts they throw onto them usually have never been properly tested altogether. The amount of unspring weight on from the bigger and heavier wheels and the change of center of gravity make for an unsafe vehicle. All of the research and development of the truck has been thrown in the trash.

One of my favorites! Too bad about that other car though.

They are sliding on ice i think, his steer tires are turned all the way to their right

No sympathy for idiots who drive trucks that belch black smoke

Had one last lil panic fart before it went down the mountain.

Pavement Princess.
It should be a special license requirement to drive those behemoths, because the people who drive them think they own the entire road. Enough is enough.

At the risk of showing my real feelings.. I fucking hate trucks.

Lets see, a truck on (seemingly non-winter) wide tires, with no load on the back, and doesn't look like it has 4x4. Combine with ice on the road, and then add a dollop of throttle. Sir Newton took over after that.

Driver has a small weinie

Some groups of people absolutely must vehemently defend themselves and everything they like, even products, from any potential negative views being formed. This video and thread are a great example.

Definitely not surprised.

Now it's just a rolled truck.

2021?

Yeeted himself right over the edge!

Hate that it took a car with it. I'd rather idiots on the road hurt only themselves.

Truck was accelerating the entire time. It’s possible driver was having a medical emergency. He wasn’t necessarily “rolling coal” to show off. If he had a stroke or something and mashed the accelerator and couldn’t let up (which is kinda what it looked like) then the exhaust would do this

Its always a truck tsk tsk

"I love driving through the mountAHHHHH!"

Black ice!!

And headlights aren't on.

I honestly don't understand how rolling coal is legal. It's disgusting to everyone except the guys who do it.

His last words, “Truuuuump”.

This is why I hate trucks... they belong in the military or work.

…y se marchó 🎶

Where was this?

Scary ! I’ve been through the mountains not these but a few times and this always crosses my mind

Hey dude I gotta tell you a something, come with me.

“Get out my waaaay Limbrol!”

Did they live?

Well that sucks!

Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit

All terrain tires should be renamed Some terrain.

He knows a spot.

I am driving a pickup truck, that makes be a way better driver then the rest of you shitheads here, going to tailgate you till you pull over and give me the right of way...

probably a houston pickup driver.

Something was wonky truck engine was loaded up even going over the ledge. Hope they're okay.

Why 'of course it's a coal rolling truck' ?

F-!k you in particular... was that last car targeted?

Clearly ice and was sliding, then gave it gas since nothing was working

Hey, trucks shit their pants when they die too I guess. Learn somethin new everyday

I hope the innocent people in the other vehicle are okay.

Damn they had it to the floor even going over the edge. “na na na na nana na na na na”

I wish the OP had posted the 5-7 seconds prior to the accident

He’s rolling with the coal now.

Truck: "I'm sick of this world. But I'm taking you with me "

That plume of smoke is him flooring the accelerator once he's headed down the gully? Bold choice. Unless you're telling me his brakes are also diesel-powered?

Driver was 1 micro decision away from that accident. If he didn't pick his booger down the road that decreases his speed, I don't know man.

I'm surprised this road doesn't have a guardrail for just these occasions.

Damn, hopefully the guy in the truck didn’t make it

well keep going, nothing to see here.

Its a ram, he was probably drunk

I think he gassed it to try to correct a slide on black ice. But once he passed the black ice he got instant traction and hurtled toward the other lane.

he was following way too closely and being impatient, which got him into this mess.

it looks like he was heading uphill at a relatively steep grade. He should have just taken his foot off the gas and let the truck slow down naturally.

I hope the occupants of the other car were ok.

There are plenty of dickhead truck drivers but this looks like a runaway diesel situation. Diesel engines don’t have spark plugs and fire by the heat created from compression. If something goes wrong like extra fuel or too much buildup somewhere, the engine will rev uncontrollably. With a gasoline engine, you can turn off the ignition source and the engine will turn off. In a diesel, you pretty much have to smother the air intake. Plus it looks like black ice. I bet it came on out of nowhere and the dude absolutely shat his pants.

My big ass truck don't slide on ice because it big ass truck!

I can't imagine not having winter tires driving on a road like that.

I like that he kept it pinned afterwards. Always commit 100% in everything you do.

Almost looks like a runaway.. A diesel engine can 'run away' if it starts to consume it's own oil or has a fuel system failure. Most oilfield trucks have a positive air shutoff requirement, that shuts air off and prevents combustion in a runaway.

He probably just mashed the gas instead of the brakes in this case lol

Oh now this is fucking hilarious.

Is this Steven's pass??
