The only time I ever had to run my motorcycle off the road to avoid a collision was from a statie pulling this very move in Illinois; I was lucky to keep it upright. Bet the guy with the boat was almost as pissed as the guy who filmed this.

I'll bet MORE p/o'ed. Not only truck bed, jack knifed trailer, and likely bow damage to his skiff.
I'd did chuckle at what looked like sunglasses scooting across pavement after the crash, before the truck.
Hopefully the troopers Ray Ban Aviators.

Good thing they had it on film. Maybe they should give the Trooper a ticket for crossing double yellow lines too.

Well... he did have his turn signal on.
