Ford F-150 Driver Plows Into Left Turning Tractor Trailer: Video

Rarely does a day pass without us spotting some sort of bad driver – whether that be out on the roadway while tooling around ourselves, or via any number of wild videos that are posted on the internet on a daily basis. In the latter realm, we’ve certainly seen our fair share of terrible driving over the years, an unfortunate phenomenon that can very often result in accidents, injuries, or much worse. That was certainly the case with this recent incident involving a Ford F-150 and a tractor trailer, which collided after the former driver made a pretty stupid decision.

In this reel recently posted to Facebook, we can see the tractor trailer preparing to make a left hand turn, which is pretty obvious given the fact that the driver engages the left turn signal shortly after beginning to apply the brakes. The Ford F-150 driver seemingly doesn’t see that signal, and instead, it looks like they believe that the big truck is pulling over on the right side of the road. Meanwhile, the semi driver doesn’t appear to see that the Ford F-150 is trying to pass him on the left, and winds up turning directly into the pickup.

This sends the Ford F-150 into the grass and on its side, causing further damage, all while another vehicle approaching from the other lane watches the action. Clearly, this was very much a preventable accident had the F-150 driver just exercised a bit more patience, but now, they’ve paid the price for that poor decision. Regardless, this is just another wild incident we’ve seen involving an F-150 lately, whether that be drivers duking it out on the highway, a Raptor pulling a stuck SUV into a ditch, and another driver hydroplaning into a barrier after driving way too fast for some bad conditions.

Brett's lost track of all the Fords he's owned over the years and how much he's spent modifying them, but his current money pits include an S550 Mustang and 13th gen F-150.

  1. Can not see if he semi trailer has its indicators on, if it does, then it is the pick up trucks fault.
