Roeselare Entrepreneur Geert Segers from Izegem was Thursday morning on the E403 in Oekene witnessed an almost-accident. “Only with an ultimate abrupt avoidance maneuver could be a driver for me to avoid that he and his truck against a signalisatievoertuig collided,” he says. His dashcam recorded it all.
With his Land Rover Defender chugged Geert Segers, business manager of the eponymous schrijnwerkbedrijf from Izegem, Thursday morning along the E403 to the house. “At the height of the exit to the petrol station in Oekene I saw a signalisatiewagen stand on the emergency lane. The large lichtbord the rear of the truck indicated that 500 metres further on the right-hand lane, not free. Thick 150 metres before the point was, the week I was off to the left-hand lane, the driver of a slower moving truck the opportunity to give without problems to move to the middle lane. To my surprise, kept the truck going straight. Just in time, gave the driver a tug on the steering wheel. He missed out on a half metres after a signalisatievoertuig. His truck, of the Chapebedrijf Valcke from the Hainault Frasnes-lez-Anvaing, swung a moment but he was able to ‘m under control. Then he drove by as if nothing had happened.” Segers don’t even understand that the man in question is the signalisatievoertuig so late saw. “We were there darn it all one passed, that he must also have seen,” says Segers. “If you see things, it is not surprising that there are accidents happen.”
