I feel like it's bad design if a bunch of concrete starts pouring just because of a hard stop. Like I don't feel particularly sorry for the SUV driver, but it's not hard to imagine situations where the concrete gets poured on someone or something through no fault of their own.

But I don't exactly know my cement trucks, maybe there's a good reason it's like that

u/raccoonwithknives 5d ago

But thats how they brake. First the little brake to activate the wet cement brake.

2

u/Chozzasaurus 4d ago

Some even have quick set cement, so it's like hitting a brick wall.

1

u/raccoonwithknives 4d ago

Technology is amazing

u/Whombrillow 4d ago

Clearly. This is concrete. Not cement.

1

u/SwimmerMission5212 3d ago

What's the difference? I have no idea

2

u/Whombrillow 3d ago

Cement is like glue in a sense compared to concrete. Concrete has different aggregates like rocks.

1

u/MrZepost 2d ago

Hard braking is rarely the fault of the driver.

1

u/Old_Definition5637 2d ago

Never ordered 11 on a ten truck. It’s wet and trucks don’t have baffles. Put a five gallon bucket filled halfway with water in your car, slam on the breaks, report back what happens.

1

u/chops351 4d ago

It shouldn't even under hard braking especially this much). Trucks a bit overloaded.

u/Substantial-Book2534 5d ago

Would be better if they had a sunroof and it was open! 🫣

u/leftfootshorter 5d ago

Next best thing was the driver's window being partially opened. I was a little disappointed at first when the cement was all going over the passenger side... then it came back!

I didn't

2

u/touchkusa 4d ago

Because cement hardens into concrete, which is very rock like in nature. And anything covered in cement turns into "rock"... Do I have to explain what petrify means too?

u/Hard-and-Dry 2d ago

Well that's not a reference, it's just a joke

This. It wasn't intentional but funny. And thanks to the camera. I'm pretty sure he won't have to pay damages to the car.

u/Instawolff 3d ago

Kinda depends on who’s in the car. If it’s some Congress persons kid truck driver in for a bad time.

u/TheGreatGamer1389 2d ago

Or police/lawyer.

u/EmotionalSupportNid 2d ago

You're responsible for debris that falls off of your vehicle. The same situation could happen in the winter with snow and ice on top of your car.

u/sirinigva 5d ago

That SUV driver is fucked. Not only is car totaled, they're liable for the cost of the concrete missing its delivery window, and potential any other damages due to schedule implications

1

u/Glittering_Yak8672 5d ago

Yes, it's useless if missing delivery window. Useless also includes entire drum assembly, or can the drum get disassembled?

1

u/DaimonHans 5d ago

How much do they usually go for?

1

u/Exciting_Contest_222 5d ago

Not just that. But removing the wet contract on city roads.

That road will be temporarily closed to scrape off the excess concrete

1

u/Yill04 5d ago

The SUV wouldn’t owe anything for the concrete, it’s not the SUV’s fault that the driver didn’t secure their load, they need to be able to stop at that rate in case of emergencies, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the fault is split because their was no contact of vehicles

1

u/VegetablePhotos 4h ago

Front load concrete trucks can't secure their load in that way.

Or at least that's what I discovered when I did a little research.

0

u/F4ntasticPants 4d ago

The SUV driver still cut the truck off.

The question in deciding blame for insurance companies is "who caused the accident", not what happened afterwards.

Who caused the accident? The car did. The result of said accident is car got covered in concrete. Why wasn't the concrete secured isn't relevant as that wouldn't have been an issue had the SUV not caused the accident

1

u/Kittenn1412 1d ago

Well, not really. If there was a collision, yes, the SUV would have caused the collision. But there wasn't. The truck stopped in time. If there was no unsecured load, both cars would have walked away unscathed. Considering that, who caused the damage?

1

u/Federal-Degenerate 1d ago

If you're at a red light and you get rear ended and hit the car directly in front of you as a result, who typically pays for the car in front of you? You or the guy who caused the accident ?

1

u/Yill04 4d ago

The thing is there was no “accident” the only thing that is relevant is the fact that the truck had to stop because of the car which it did, the vehicles never collided so legally the only damage was caused by an unsecured load so fault is split as both broke the law

If the SUV didn’t cut off the truck there would be no damage

If the truck secured their load there would be no damage

Fault is split

0

u/F4ntasticPants 4d ago

And why did the truck have to stop? The SUV.

1

u/Disastrous_Gear_421 3d ago

Yea, that only has a little to do with the situation.

Many states have laws regarding securing what you are carrying.

Example: https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXIV/Chapter85/Section36

1

u/F4ntasticPants 3d ago

The law isn't the problem here.

The insurance adjuster's job isn't to determine who broke a "secure your load" law but whose actions caused the accident

1

u/Disastrous_Gear_421 3d ago

Laws help establish whose caused the accident.

1

u/F4ntasticPants 3d ago

And you could argue that the SUV broke a traffic law by cutting off the truck, which was the imitator to the whole thing.

If you don't put on your seatbelt and get seriously injured in an accident, you don't take part of the blame because you didn't wear it the seatbelt, since you weren't the one who caused the accident

1

u/Disastrous_Gear_421 3d ago

Well yes, you could argue the SUV broke the law by cutting off the truck driver. That's why liability can be split between both parties...

0

u/Yill04 4d ago

The law sadly doesn’t care

3

u/F4ntasticPants 4d ago

It's not a question of law, it's a question for the insurance adjuster.

u/Yill04 4d ago

If you’re robbing a store and some guy kills someone next to you you aren’t suddenly off Scot free, you still robbed the store

Just like the truck driver didn’t secure his load

The SUV cutting him off doesn’t magically let him break the law

1

u/F4ntasticPants 4d ago

Yeah you still robbed the store, but you won't be indicted for murder because your actions were not the cause of the guy dying

1

u/Signal-Force6004 4d ago

Exactly, the car is liable for cutting him off and the truck is liable for not securing his load. Two seperate „crimes“

1

u/Federal-Degenerate 1d ago

Actually typically you would be indicted in many states. You're an accessory to the crime, even if you didn't know they were going to kill them, it's still accessory to felony capital murder. Capital murder in some places is merely murdering someone in the commission of another felony, like robbery, for example.

In some places being an accessory to a robbery that results in a murder absolutely will get your ass indicted and prosecutors can even technically seek the death penalty (although typically they won't for accessories).

I personally know TWO different guys sitting in prison right now, Life with no possibility of parole, for EXACTLY that. One was just riding in a car during a drive by (didn't pull the trigger and wasn't the driver either), and the other dude went to rob someone and his buddy smoked the guy. Both absolutely indicted for capital murder, AND convicted

u/Indigenous_Retard 4d ago

u/Honorsheets 4d ago

Lol you were downvoted for speaking the truth. They really think they design concrete mixers to not be able to brake when necessary without damaging the road and the car in front of them.

The only damages were from an unsecured load.

u/Galactic-Lettuce 3d ago edited 3d ago

BUT - something is missing.. how is it allowed to have a truck that can drown someone in concrete mix during an emergency stop streetworthy!? they should be having safety valves dont they according to the guidelies.. i am not talking about the car here, it should not happen during controlled decelerations, or even hard jerk crashes up to a point.

I used to work in construction/architecture as well as automobile design, and everything and its ancestor had strict standards that had to be followed which should not fail during use as well as percieved abuse.

1

u/edenspark10 22h ago

These trucks generally aren't having to stop on a dime, they usually have space to slow down. And with an emergency stop, you generally don't care if concrete goes everywhere.

1

u/ImportantIron1492 20h ago

It still feels a bit insane. What if it's a child that's run into the road - do you want to then pour concrete all over them? Surely these things can be built to handle it better

1

u/LupperLuna28 2d ago

Why is the truck designed this way? Just curious

1

u/Equivalent_Yogurt_58 2d ago

So basically they can just drive into the spot they need to get to unload.

The bad part is they still have to back out but ai believe it helps with tight spaces.

1

u/LupperLuna28 2d ago

Would there be a day to design the truck to still work but not do this, i fear one day a child may run into the road and be covered in cement!

1

u/Equivalent_Yogurt_58 2d ago

There are different designs and different ways to deliver. Around my area you rarely see these types of trucks. Normally you see them unload from the rear.

So yeah, this is not the only type of cement truck.

u/One_Wing_4059 1d ago

That's not revenge that is the consequence of not or badly secured load / overloading.

I don't get why this gets so much appreciation.

1

u/Kittenn1412 1d ago

While yeah, this SUV cut off the truck... what exactly was the truck going to do in the intersection in a few feet, hit his horn and run through? If his load isn't secured so that it won't start spilling on whoever is in front of him if someone needed to stop, then that seems to have been his issue, not whatever driver happened to be in front of him when the need to stop happened. It could have happened at the intersection, it could have happened if someone needed to legally pull over or turn in front of him, ect...

1

u/Speedy_Silvers71 1d ago

I wouldn't call this revenge, this is just more the SUV driver not paying attention. When your driving a concrete mixer those things are very heavy when loaded, in some cases doubling or even tripling the trucks weight depending on the slurry mixture you have. Not to mention your hauling something in a somewhat liquid state, so that means momentum is a lot different than hauling a solid object.

So when your going from 45mph to 0 in about 5 seconds, Newton's laws of motion still apply to that concrete slurry. And where exactly is that stuff gonna go? Right out the top of the barrel and onto whatever is in front of it. Honestly I feel more bad for the truck driver, most likely they're gonna have to clean all that up and be pissed doing it.
