Alec Baldwin blamed a hulking garbage truck that was the “size of a whale” for causing him to smash his wife’s Range Rover into a “big, fat tree” in the Hamptons Monday afternoon.

Baldwin, 67, and his younger brother Stephen Baldwin were in a car crash after smacking right into a tree on the side of Montauk Highway in East Hampton.

The brothers, who were born and raised an hour outside the suburban Long Island paradise, were enjoying a cruise in Hilaria Baldwin’s white Range Rover when they careened off course.

The elder Baldwin, though, blamed the fiasco on a garbage truck that was the “size of a whale,” that he said cut him off in a video posted on Instagram.

These garbage trucks are almost as dangerous as guns.

He thanked the East Hampton police, who presumably didn't charge him or make him take an alcohol test.

He sounds like the Miami Dolphins Tuna Tagovailoa... I threw three interceptions and it's everyone else's fault.

Maybe it was a Tolkien traveling tree that walked into the road. An Ent, that’s it!

Meanwhile, the garbage truck company said it was nothing to do with their truck, it was Baldwin’s inability to drive safely. Keep him away from cars, guns, people,

It wasn’t my fault. I’d never crash into a tree like that on my own. It was this giant truck and and and it pushed me to the side… yeah… I’d never do anything like drive drunk and crash my wife’s truck like that… no… I’m innocent.

He’s consistent ...nothing is ever his fault. Surprised he didn’t blame the tree.

Those garbage trucks are so nimble.

They cut me off all the time. I never have a chance to dodge them they are so fast.

I lose more cars that way.

I sympathize with smart alec
