Cyclist and Truck Driver Have Warm Encounter After Near Collision
Occurred on August 22, 2018 / Savannah, Georgia, USA
Info from Licensor: "I was out for a casual ride out to Pooler, Georgia. I was on my way home on Gulfstream Road when this semi truck rolled the stop sign and pulled out right in front of me. I obviously yelled but kept a level head as I did not want to escalate the situation. The operator of the vehicle was more than apologetic and that helped in keeping both of us calm. Even though the operator of the truck rolled the stop sign I gave him the benefit of the doubt as I may have been in his blind spot behind the mirror. He and I shook hands and went on with our day. We even waved at each other as he passed by. I would like to use this video as an example to others on the benefit of keeping calm even when wronged."
