Not sure that was the best maneuver...

What was a better option? I can't think of a way in those precious few seconds he could have made the guy avoid colliding with the overturned car that he definitely could not see.

well, they're both dipshits imo. Who passes on the right? And why is the truck on the left? He was probably going to move back to the right lane anyway, but if not (in being a good guy) he almost hits this car or push him into the side anyway, not really leaving him much time or space to slow down.

He just simply driven more slowly.

There are two lanes on that bridge. He wasn't passing on the right; he was just driving in the right lane. And why do you feel the truck isn't allowed to drive in the left lane?

I'm not really following your highway logic. Do you live somewhere where rules of the road dictate that trucks are not allowed to drive on the left and cars are not allowed to drive on the right?

The truck very deliberately breached the divider line to force the car to slow down. There was plenty of space in the lane and he was slow enough that the car had no choice but to slow down, which is why he had time for the truck to get out of view and was at a low enough speed that he could stop before careening into the overturned car.

There was a very tiny window of time the truck driver had to react to help the car, and he didn't have to do anything at all, but he probably saved lives with his not-at-all-reckless maneuver. If I was in the car, I would have been very thankful.

Adding video to channels (Asia, Water) - requested by ant.

@ant - I don't understand. Do you assign channels incorrectly as a joke? It seems like it's something you have always done and always continue to do, but is it honestly just for laughs?

Did you really assign this to "Water" because there are drops of water on the windshield? People visit the Water channel to view content that's actually about water and not just any random video in which something wet might appear somewhere on the screen.

Channel assignments are not supposed to be like a Where's Waldo where you're searching and guessing to figure out why a video's in a channel. Channels are supposed to offer categorization for people who are interested in viewing specific and meaningful content on a particular subject.

Crazy that they hadn't set up some warning system further up the highway. There was already a tow truck at the scene so it had happened some time ago.
