    My 4k dash cam caught this. The joker (I can say this because he lived) passed me at 10 MPH faster minimum. The sequence shown occurred a least 500 ft in front. I did stop to see if the flip onto the road parallel to the freeway was fatal. Passenger side of cab crushed, driver side stayed, but only driver was in. It all started with him hitting center-freeway dirt ditch ...

    The owner should show those pictures to his insurance company and claim that Big Foot was driving his truck.

    Depending on compression and recording method, pulling out decent stills from a video can be problematic.

    Seems silly to try to pull stills out of a 4k video when you post a series of stills to show someone crashing... just post the video.

    Addressing two things ... this was shown to police to show the joker caused his own problems.

    Second ... video converted to "mp4" which cannot be uploaded.
