Truck still rolling despite severe damages captured on video

A video is making waves, capturing a semi truck still on the road with glaring damages. The condition of the rig has stirred reactions due to its obvious disrepair.

The scene: The semi's cab is severely damaged, with one side nearly ripped off. A tarp covers the top, and the trailer is bent at odd angles.

  • The truck was seen rolling down an unspecified road, sparking speculation about the location, with some guessing it could be somewhere in Mexico.
  • The poor state of the truck hints that local enforcement might be less strict, given the damage visible in the video.

What they're saying: "This is taking 'keep on trucking' to the extreme," commented a viewer, reflecting on the surprising sight.

An investigation into how this truck managed to stay operational is ongoing. Thankfully, there have been no reports of accidents or injuries related to this vehicle so far.
