Sudden reveal slow vehicle in front of you while you drive in 2 lane road with opposite coming vehicle!!!


(Picture is scene imitation.)

This accident occurred about 25 years ago while my dad drove right hand drive "Holden" car in rural area 2 lane local road. He followed one car A with speed while opposite lane had coming truck C. Suddenly, front car A accelerated to overtake something before passing opposite lane truck C. This is the sign of disaster. The very slow local truck B called "E-Tan" appeared not too far while opposite lane truck C was passing. The road shoulder on the left was not wide enough to dodge because there was steep slope beyond. Although my dad suddenly braked the car, but his car collided with the front truck. Two of the passengers in the truck were injured, first one had head injury which need to be craniotomy to remove blood in his skull, another one had fractured clavicle that need clavicle splint and need no surgery. My dad didn't injured anymore.

He told me about that accident once, but I've remembered that scene until now. Hope you recognise this sign and be slow.!!!
