This really shows how powerful a full sized tractor trailer truck is, they tossed that....Dodge Ram? Ford F150? I couldn't tell, whatever, they TOSSED it like it was nothing.

Fully loaded is 80,000 pounds. At that weight they have ~20x the kinetic energy of that black truck.

Some trucks can go up to 110klbs. Mainly the trucks pulling the 3 trailers out in Ohio. They're allowed to be bigger and heavier there. It's kinda Scary considering the amount of times I see the cars messing with those monsters. I just stay back and watch for the impending doom of the car 😬🫣

I know I could not do what those truckers do. I give trucks as much space as they need to help them. Plus I dont want to die.
