Driver pinned by truck in Melville road-rage incident

"...Maduro was issued a summons for driving too many hours without a sufficient break."
What about Hit & Run?? Leaving the scene of an accident with bodily harm???

now my mail will be late........

Nissan vs Big Rig, Big Rig wins.
he deserved it because he was driving too slow and blocking the trucks right of way. Not too smart 2,000 pound car vs 80,000 pound truck. did he think he would stop in time.

for the second time in one day....

ONLY ON LONG ISLAND

Jim you sound like a road rage person yourself... if the road says 55... YOU GO 55 maybe 60-65 tops... I got a speeding ticket when I was going with the flow at 76... Since then I keep it under 65... you want to pass me... there are two other lanes to be in! Choose one or the other and pass me.

Shows what the average American know.. Nothing! A mail truck takes priority over any other emergency vehicle even without the flashing lights and siren. Ever wonder why the DMV asked that question on the permit test? Is because their a federal organization they are above the law.

What you get for being a tough guy.

Tommy, they were on the "ramp" their are no other lanes on the "ramp", Moron.

Because the mail never stops!

2 douchè bags. They deserve what they both got.

Because the driver likely didn't know that this moron stood there and watched the trailer bear down on him. He played chicken with the back end of the rig - and he lost! I feel sorry for the TT driver - the Nissan driver was baiting him - to the point of standing there waiting for the rig to hit him! The moron couldn't figure out that the driver couldn't even see him.

Typical LI'er - I exist therefore I am the most important person in the world!

the motorist is to blame. he should have never got out his car. im glad he got hit

Altima=0, Tractor Trailer=1. Duh.

Why was this postal service dirtbag not arrested for leaving the scene of an accident? The problem with most of these truck drivers is that, they think they are large-and-in charge....and get the ffuck out of my way. Actually, I watched the other day how an 18-wheeler rig was in the center lane....a car pulled up in the left turing lane and turned....the ff-ing sscum-bag truck driver flipped out because he wanted to make a left! Honestly if the dirtbag trucker wanted to make a left....then have your left blinker on...its that s-i-m-p-l-e! Also,we are all aware of the yellow sign on the trucks rear door about wide turns. Show some respect and maturity and become a professional driver!

Did you see the report of a recent cross-check showing about 600,000 drivers with commercial licenses are on government rosters as being on FULL disability!!(deaf/seizure disorders, etc)

And those are only the ones with supposed complete PHYSICAL disabilities.

Based on how often I'm menaced by the aggressive drivers of big rigs, I couldn't even guess how many more should be classified as psychologically disabled.

p.s. All you idiots who claim the right to menace drivers who are reasonably within legal bounds, don't bother to reply. I'm not required to do 25mph over the limit or somehow evaporate when there's nowhere to go. I'm happy to let the jerks get ahead of me (PLEASE get out of my danger zone!)but often there's no way to appease these maniacs.

Get out of the road if you you don't want to get hit. The truck driver should paint a stick figuire on his fender now.

truck driver is not a postal service employee. outside contractor from n.j. so before you lump us into dirtbag category, know the facts.

nor does the postal service own the truck. newsday is clueless.
