Shait. Driver behind the wheel of the Suby indicated like he wants to change lanes before meeting head on with the lorry. Sad indeed.

No wonder driving schools teach that one shouldn't get behind the wheel if drunk, tired, sleepy, or on medication. Looks to me like the guy lost control polepole until the ultimate crash.
but FH driver ndiye mjinga, aliwasha mataa kuliko ahepe, last second he swerved to wrong lane.
another reason why all vehicles should have a dash cam

My verdict: He wanted to return the favor to the tanker driver. Notice how he activates the right indicator immediately the tanker overtakes him (min 15:46), then tries to get into the opposite lane, readying to overtake the tanker, but notices an oncoming lorry, which forces him back to his lane. He attempts to overtake again (16:06) but returns upon seeing the canter. At this point, I am thinking he over-steers to the left, then tries to correct, but goes too far to the right, by which time the canter is too close.
So it looks like anger, inexperienced driving, fast acceleration, possible modified suspension, incorrect tire pressure, a pompous tanker driver, and a canter driver who dislikes dirt, all did him in.

He was trying to overtake then something went wrong with the car, he could not keep it on lane. It would keep pulling him towards right, and another incoming fool who makes a sharp right turn till he tips over. Who does that
