Happened October 11, after the Florida uturn crash controversy.
If he goes through the toll booth in the wrong direction, does the tool booth pay him?
The driver had an Indian accent.
Wrong Way Truck Driver speaks:
“In my country, everybody read going from right to left.
I read all signs and complied with all directions. Always!
Work out fine, uhm... until today. What is problem?”

When I was managing a sub company for a fortune 100 company, I ran into people all the time who believed that everyone was the same. And that you just hire a bunch of people and they all can do any job. The difference between people could be chalked up to education and opportunity.So Mark Spitz, Marilyn Monroe and Bobby Fischer were all interchangeable. Each could have done what the others did with the right education and opportunities. These misinformed people were often in HR. And they were backed by upper management.
That same logic is why this truck driver was driving an 18 wheeler the wrong way on a US interstate. Because he drove a truck somewhere he could drive a truck here. In fact if he had not driven a truck somewhere else he would get two weeks of training then be given a truck. Driving a truck is hard. And you need a lot of experience. Different weights and sizes, different cabs and highways need to be considered as the trucker makes life and death decisions every moment they are on the road. The total lack of appreciation for ones innate skills and work ethic means that poor HR policy can be just as responsible for killing people as the trucker. And maybe even more so.
Not really related to the topic, but some might appreciate the Border Patrol play set.
