Truck driver is wrong for going out with an unsecured load. They were driving too fast. Even if it hadn't been a car that got splattered wet concrete in the road would be a major hazard.

Yeah why does it keep pouring that long after the truck is stopped? Something wasnt not done properly here.
Can’t confirm the quantity that would release, but a front-loading cement truck would certainly dump at least a small amount of concrete when slamming on the brakes that hard. The slump of the concrete seems to be 7-8”(loose) and there is no mechanism that would completely prevent concrete from spilling forward that I am aware of.
That said, the concrete does appear to continue for a while after reasonably assuming gravity would stop the flow. Maybe he turned on the hydraulics since he was pissed?
I think that's the case, he probably turned on the hydraulics because at the start it spills from the front (Front of the camera, a lil to the left?) when he brakes then it just pours out of the right.
Was thinking it could be the weight shift of the concrete all at once blowing out the hydraulic in the front leaving it to pour.
This is also true but I still enjoy seeing someone who probably shouldn't be driving face consequences for failing to follow basic road safety
Truck being driven was most likely one of These (notice the hydraulic arm for the concrete chute on the front and in the video). Concrete probably sloshed out of the top and thus down the chute onto the car. IDK if there’s a way to close these up when in “transport” mode.
There’s no way to tell if the truck is going too fast since we don’t know the speed limit of the road nor the truck’s actual speed. Regardless that’s a lot of weight you need to stop in a short period of time even if the driver was going under the speed limit.
My armchair guess is genuine accident caused by poor visibility with the bush in the way and the driver understandably freezing up with a giant ass truck barreling up on them
Truck driving too fast. Unsecured load. Unkept bush blocking the view of the exiting vehicle.
There a lot of blame to go around here, and not all of it belongs on the car driver.
I really hoped that he had an open sunroof
I would rather get obliterated by that truck than slowly get crushed to death under hundreds of pounds of wet concrete. That guy is a dumbass to be sure but nobody deserves living entombment.
Get incased, idiot
Truck-kun just shit itself.
Oh yeah, that's some classic shit right there.
