Trucker John Doe was eastbound on a divided four-lane highway in Kansas, and a steady morning rain made the commute a little slick.
About 600 feet up ahead was a flatbed trucker in the same right-side eastbound lane.
Like John Doe, the flat-bedder was going slightly below the posted speed limit. Suddenly, Doe noticed a westbound straight truck drifting out-of-control across the grass-covered median. The truck veered directly into the path of the flatbed truck who had banked left and braked hard.
The two trucks collided at a speed close to zero, but in the process blocked both lanes. While braking, Doe steered onto the shoulder to avoid a tragedy.
