Comcast truck causing a road hazard (1 Viewer)

[RokNRole]

Obviously some of those folks were driving WAY too fast for those conditions.  One car sliding off the road, more likely to just be that poor driver's fault.  After multiple vehicles are crashing those Comcast guys are complete morons for not doing something to help make this situation safer.  They could have gotten killed.  Common sense has to play into situations sometimes...

We are talking about a cable provider.

When do they ever make sense?

Getting scoleded by Mr. Garrison repeatedly would have made me at least put out a couple more cones...

The guy in the Dodge Ram (NOT the old truck flying like a bat out of ####) did one heck of a job sliding his car off the road in between two ditched cars without hitting either of them.  Credit where credit is due...that was some slick driving.  (pun intended)

That was the first thing my son pointed out - I told him to learn from that because one day it could save your or someone else's life.

So COMCRASH is living up to their unofficial name?

"maybe some more cones"

the ace reporter puts his own out and there was still accidents

funny the school school buses had zero problems

Why would he give the guy the satisfaction?

he put out the minimum. Who cares if anyone gets hurt as long as he didn't cave to a regular person.

Those weren't cones they were orange child cutout.

Which makes me wonder why the hell that guy had those. And where was he keeping them? He may live nearby and had them in his garage which is weird or he had them in his car which is even weirder

 

[Uncle CornCob]

These 2 guys were in a no win situation. Stop the job and their superiors are on their back , continue and they have the ham & egger with the phone harassing them . Then if Comcast pulls them some other yokel calls and #####es about their service not working and they should be out in the conditions working.

Disagree. Once the second truck arrived, the first truck could have easily parked at the top of the hill and walked the 100 yards back to the work area. Would have taken 5 minutes, tops. The presence of the truck at the top of the hill would have slowed down 99% of drivers.

Disagree totally

Disagree totally

 I disagree with your disagreement of my disagreement. That's akin to the triple dog dare.

Congratulations for being king of the internet. I'm sure your mom kisses your crown every morning when she brings your Eggo waffles down to the basement.

Didn't seem like any of those were his so he very well may have been a pedestrian but that doesn't explain the orange traffic people

 

[GregR]

Disagree totally

I've lost track. Whose fishing trip alias are you?

yea, 15 ton vehicles with giant tire treads typically have the same issues as 1 ton sedans.

Once again you have established why you are universally loved and respected

Why didn't the people just step on the brakes when they saw the hazard?  

Says the guy who lives where it doesn't snow.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Why did the Comcast guys have to be so stubborn?  Why didn't the guy shooting the video call the police?  Seems that many things could have been done to prevent some of these accidents.  This is like someone coming in and throwing a bucket of gas on a fire.   So much fail. 

 

[belljr]

That last pickup truck was not a good example to use as Comcast screwing up.   That dude would have smashed into any car there making a left or what have you.

There's a pop up bubble right at the beginning of the video that says the cops were called after the 1st slide off but they didn't arrive until 30-40 minutes later.

Sad deal

If only that dude had more orange cutout children

more like "says the guy who lives where the laws of physics don't apply"

Cresting a blind hill at 40+mph in ice and snow sounds like a pretty reckless thing to do. The cars going much slower did not seem to have any problems.

Well, you need to speed up going over the hill in icy conditions in case you don't make it you don't slide backwards

 

[Jobber]

Git gud in snow, people.

Apparently the police were the only people driving slower due to the bad weather.

and probably chains on said giant tires
