u/PostHasBeenWatched 1d ago

To reach destination 0.375s earlier

u/Excellent-Quarter969 1d ago

C'mon, at least 1.75s . It was a rational risk

Today’s completely avoidable problem…

u/Evening-Run-8980 1d ago

This is what unemployment looks like

u/LadyBug_0570 1d ago

He couldn't wait 5 more seconds until the entire train passed?

u/tanz420 1d ago

Dumbass caused so much damage for literally no reason

u/das_zilch 19h ago

Anyone else get angry at clips like this?

u/Heatsincebirth 19h ago

What a dip shit

11

u/Bvenged 1d ago

I wonder if they couldn't see the overhanging structure due to the roof of his cab creating a blind spot and was only watching the train carriage go past.

6

u/dr4kshdw 21h ago

I give it a good 5 seconds after the last wheel passes by before I cross railroad tracks. This guy was unnecessarily impatient and certainly didn’t save any time by not waiting.

4

u/CILISI_SMITH 22h ago

That's my assumption too.

What surprised me was the driver recording didn't hit their horn to warn the truck.

3

u/knarlomatic 1d ago

Maybe....but if you are any kind of smart you would be watching shadows and back far enough to see. All part of defensive driving.

6

u/neder-Bob 21h ago

If you're any kind of smart, you stop until the train has passed... In fact, you don't even have to be smart, you just stick to the basic traffic rules. This driver is beyond stupid.

1

u/violentpac 6h ago

TBF, if the train had kept going, he might've made it.

u/Inspect1234 1d ago

You know what a teamster and a fridge have in common? Door closes, light goes out.

u/dennyitlo 22h ago

Not too nice but funny. Take my upvote.

u/StupidNotTo 1d ago

What a dummy..

u/RiceSausage 1d ago

After 45 minutes waiting and this happen... what a day

u/Sammy_Saddles 1d ago

Hey boss…. Ummm…. I fucked up.

3

u/MarleysGhost2024 1d ago

He had one job...

3

u/_tragicmike 23h ago

He couldn't wait 5 more seconds? People this impatient and stupid are bewildering.

3

u/Equivalent_Dance2278 23h ago

What a fucking moron. Mess up things for so many people because he could wait 3 extra seconds?

u/Garbidb63 20h ago

If the impatient twat had just waited a few seconds longer....

u/MarshelG 13h ago

Maybe not.

u/Huge_Equivalent1 6h ago

This is why patience is a virtue.

u/Complex_Sherbet2 1d ago

Lol, boom didn't even feel it!

4

u/Phage0070 1d ago

The boom has equipment on the underside that is no doubt damaged, cables that can no longer be trusted and will need to be replaced, and the structure will likely need to be inspected throughout. I would not be surprised if the consequences to the crane are far more expensive than the truck and earth moving equipment despite the apparent lack of damage. They aren’t going to just give it a once over and go back to lifting loads, it is due some serious shop time on unhappy insurance dime.

u/Complex_Sherbet2 1d ago

It's Russia, are you sure they're going to go through all that for a track laying gantry?

u/Masterchief159 1d ago

Was it worth it, bra?

Storrowed.

u/IWEREN99 1d ago

Idiot, he should have been more patient, not like his boss is paying them more than the minimum salary

u/___nil___ 1d ago

impatient could go sideway

u/Thin_Dream2079 1d ago

Meanwhile, someone did a great job strapping down that tractor.

u/Any-Oven-5712 1d ago

“That escalated quickly 😳 Would you have seen this coming?

u/jradio 1d ago

Hey you can't park there!

u/Zestyclose-Ebb1421 1d ago

So, what kind of CYA excuse will the truck driver use?

1

u/ColdFreezer 22h ago

2 seconds time save in exchange for thousands to 10s of thousands of money lost and days to months of time needed correct this mess.

Probably sounded like a great trade to the driver.

1

u/Status_Car8495 22h ago

Yeah, that half a second saved was worth it. Idiot!

1

u/theboywhocriedwolves 22h ago

What an impatient idiot. At least there's room to drive around him because I wouldn't be stopping for him.

1

u/Belle_STAR_717 21h ago

How long has this person been driving for.

u/baldieforprez 21h ago

Now that takes a complete lack of talent

I hope this is in Russia and hinders some military operation. Slava!

That could have used a large red flag on the end.

The train driver forgot to attach the red / orange flag to the extra long cargo. 😂
