Kia Sportage Driver 'Invents' New Lane Without Alerting Truck Driver

You should never ever stay in an 18-wheeler’s blind spot. It is one of the most dangerous places on the road, as your car could be easily crushed by dozens of tonnes of truck and trailer. Overtaking a truck on the right is again not a very wise decision, as things tend to go horribly wrong when attempting such maneuvers.
The driver of this Kia Sportage clearly disregards all of what has been written above, as he tries to overtake an 18-wheeler on the right side, even though there is only one lane. He ‘invents’ a new lane and tries to overtake. Sadly, the truck driver does not see the Kia, and the contact between the two vehicles is all-but inevitable.

The Kia is dragged a good few meters, before the truck finally stops. In this situation, at least, it the fault was entirely with the crossover driver, who should not have been there in the first place.
