I doubt it has the same brakes demonstrated here: http://videosift.com/video/Volvo-Trucks-Emergency-braking-at-its-best
But still a very good stop on his part.
Oakland CA Is So Scary Even Cops Want Nothing To Do With It
Shite like this is the reason I moved out of California, living in good old Saint Paul, Minnesota now. Oxnard California is like a mini-Oakland. Here I have a 3000sf home built in 1901, 1 mile from downtown and no worries. My daughter is 10mos, one due in July, and we so enjoy walks in the neighborhood in the summer. My stepson walks to baseball 1 mile away, we meet him there pushing baby and walking dog, walk home as an American Family. It makes it all worth while. My wife is a CPA but I am a blue collar truck driver.
I think there are ALL KINDS of problems that lead to places like this in Cali... Fresno is almost as bad. Parts of the low desert are very bad, etc. If you want to write 2 page posts defending your view of WHY, maybe that's one of the reasons why as well, and you should define it, man up, and put it in there at number 12 or whatever. Sure "democratic stronghold" is part of the problem. American counter-culture has also been rewarding consumerism above all else for decades. Asians, Latinos, and Blacks cash in today and sell out tomorrow. The west coast is also way too expensive, real estate is too high, and money is the only incentive.
Obviously there is a problem. The left wants to look at answers that sound might or will help but accountability cant be ignored. The right wants to go to war and justify a police state when we are all Americans defining our on future together.
As a side note I might have had 10-15 encounters with these types over the years in and around Oxnard and if their skin was white and I was armed, maybe they would have died...or me. Who knows, there are always more than one way to deal with a problem. In the end the minorities pay the price and it isn't fair. They get worse jobs, their property isnt worth ShXXt, their children receive a poor education. Cookie-cutter whites, in the end, benefit on the left. The drive their Volvo SUVs on highways to schools or doctors or what have you paid for by the masses.

Russian Truckers - Expertise, experience, and luck
I thought that looked familiar.
The two clips at 3:06 are technology. The drivers in question are actually trying to hit the other objects.

186 mph motorcycle gets passed by a station wagon (Audi)
No way! I wonder how much horsepower that Volvo had to have push that barn door aerodynamics (or lack thereof) through the air at that speed!
LOL
186 mph motorcycle gets passed by a station wagon (Audi)
It was a beautiful thing. Got to ride in a 1991 E31 BMW 850 limiter removed on the Autobahn back in 95. The guy driving looks at the rearview mirror says something to the effect of "Thats Interesting" and moves right just as a Volvo station wagon blows by at well above 320 kph. Drive just grins and says "Not Stock" and keeps going. Had a lot of fun there.
uhm, I just wanted to post a cool video of a station wagon (admittedly, an Audi RS6, yes, I have gearhead lust) zipping by a motorcycle already going at insane rates of speed.
Hope everyone can still see the beauty and marvel in that...

Well maybe my skepticism is allayed somewhat. It seems they've got some guidance software to help with reversing. According to Volvo's site:
When reversing:
Perfect control without strain.
...
Furthermore, if you need to reverse long distances, here’s something new. The course stability is so great that you can reverse a truck and trailer more than a hundred metres without drifting off course.

Here's another one - referenced in the article, where a woman tightrope walks between two volvo trucks, pretty epic:
