This FedEx Driver Has Serious Skills

Imagine driving down a steep grade, and the brakes of your vehicle lock up. Now imagine said vehicle is a fully loaded two-trailer truck and the road is a mess of slushy storm snow, and the cops are following you. Exactly that happened on I-80 near the California-Nevada border, and a California Highway Patrol officer filmed the whole thing. Serious props to the driver of the truck and the officers making sure the roads stay safe. 

From CHP-Truckee’s Facebook:

“The driver had jackknifed at the top of the grade. When the driver had lost it at the top of the hill, he had broken the air lines to his rear trailer. This caused the brakes on the rear trailer to lock up. We arrived on scene and were informed the tow was going to be extended. So we asked the driver if he could get himself going and we would give him space to get down to the next open shoulder on the Interstate. 20 minutes later he was off the highway and we were open with flowing traffic.”
