Terrifying dashcam footage shows a big rig truck driver in a desperate scenario—but his quick actions narrowly averting a disaster.
Barreling down an Ohio state highway near Montville on the morning of April 19, the driver realized his brakes had failed. Meanwhile, a school bus was stopped in the single lane roadway directly ahead of him, beyond which more vehicles occupied the oncoming lane.
He can be heard frantically crying out in the video, “Stop, stop, stop! No!” while blaring his horn to signal to the traffic that he was in trouble.
More footage, taken from the school bus, shows bus driver Dylan Boyland, a fulltime mechanic for Medina City School Transportation Department, making his second-to-last stop on his first day on the job. Nearing the end of his route, he had 15 kids aboard.
