You've seen the sideways commute in England haven't you?

Not to detract from TiMopar's videos but I thought this deserved a thread of its own...

And here's what was apparently happening in the cab of the truck the whole time  :lol::

Reminds me of the guy who got pushed down the road 4 miles in his wheelchair a few years back: http://mwkira.wordpress.com/2007/09/20/wheelchair-man-gets-pushed-by-truck-4-miles-without-driver-realizing/

Just to explain what the problem is here; we in England drive on the wrong side of the road, in right-hand drive cars. Also on our roads are European truck drivers in left-hand drive trucks, the problem being that on the freeways they have a massive blind spot to vehicles overtaking them on their right side. Consequently, if the cars don't overtake quickly and the truck wants to pull out to change lanes also, there is a 'coming together' with the result in the video.
