Holy Fukc! At least the driver of the car lived to get his ass in trouble. Why did he try to change lanes like that anyway? If it was just him I'm betting he would have lost control and caused an accident anyway.

edit: from the looks of it the car might have lost control and then cut in front of the truck. It was super close to the trailer then it went back out and then cut in front of the tractor.

About looks like the car was trying to run the semi off the road. Who changes lanes that fast and he had to know the semi was there. . . . . maybe the driver had a seizure?
It is pretty clear from the video that the car driver, probably an african american overweight woman talking on her cell phone, did not stay in her lane when the highway turned right thus slamming (or coming close) to the semi, backing out to the right and overcorrecting which caused the sedan to hit the front cab of the semi.

Since the road turned right on her without any warning, she things it is a right wing spiracy with a violation of her fifth dimensional rights.

That ClickOnDetroit video does not show what actually happened until around 26ish seconds. The driver of the car hit the truck coming around the curve, bounced off, more than likely over-corrected and hit the truck again. Jalopnik has a better video of it: http://jalopnik.com/5550345/video-car-hits-pepsi-truck-causes-catastrophic-wreck . The person in the Porsche SUV on the other side had some mad dodging skills.
