Today was a troublesome day sadly, here comes why:
This morning I was loading a container from Kiel that goes to Stavanger - Norway. Everything just looks fine:
In the afternoon, I'm riding the E39 just some kilometers before the Hirtshals ferry harbour, when this happened:
I didn't had any accidents before, altough I'm driving this truck for almost 2 years (in real life) Until this day I was lucky:
I was not driving fast, with 80 I guess, but the other truck which I was following suddenly started breaking heavily, and I could not stop. I quickly took a turn to the left, to avoid the collison, but my truck became uncontrolable, and first I hit the road barrier and after that I hit this truck in the middle:
I canceled the job. I was close to the Hirtshals port so the trailer went away with the ship and from Kristiansand a Norwegian truck took it to Stavanger. My Volvo came home to Kiel on a trailer, now it's in a service, the whole front panel of the cab has to be changed completely. Until that, I'm gonna drive this little thing:
