"When I'm driving, I'm the most important person in the world!!"
Sure, mate, but there's a problem here, see? Physics don't give a fuck.
- That person would think that he/she owns the physics just to find out that it's the other way around
  
  How much can physics cost? $10?

I can't stop looking at this. It's beautiful.

Damn, open window as well.
- The window seems to have been spared a bit, the full blow missed it by a little.
- Sunroof would've been better

I think there are at least 3 idiots here:
The suv driver. fairly obvious
The mixer driver. They shouldn't have been driving fast enough where sudden breaking would make them lose their load. Also may have been overfilled.
The property owner of the property suv driver is pulling out of. The tree/shrubs block a good portion of the view into the roadway. The shrub is overgrown into the sidewalk and makes it a blind turn unless you pull Into the sidewalk and the curb.
there may be a bunch of idiots with city planning/ zoning to allow the bush to be placed so close to the roadway in the first place
As funny as the gif is, this could've been avoided if there was one less idiot
- They shouldn’t have been driving fast enough where sudden breaking would make them lose their load.
  Driver: I stopped 50 tons in 2 seconds
  Internet Rando: you should not have made a mess on the idiots whose lives you just saved with your quick thinking.
  
  Lets say it wasn't an idiot but an animal that jumped into the road that's now covered in concrete. Is the driver still not at fault for driving too fast?
  
  Narrowly avoiding a collision isn’t the sign of a good driver.
  Good drivers are the ones who prevent the risk of narrow misses to begin with.
  I wholeheartedly agree with the other posters that the truck driver was driving too fast for that road and the load they were carrying.
- I think the vegetation would be ok if the other factors weren't so bad. Mixer should be roadsafe and be driven roadsafe, personal car driver should heed to the laws of driving.

It’s the SUV drivers fault, but the cement truck should not be able to lose its load through a sudden stop.

If only the white SUV driver's father had pulled out all those years ago...

Best part is the truck driver not backing out after the cement starts to pour.
- Won't that just make more concrete come out?
  
  Well, maybe yes, but it won't pour on top of the car, right? (or maybe not, honestly I have no idea)
  
  Yep, unless timed very well with a backward slosh, but that infeasible.

It's a thing of beauty ..

The truck driver is going too fast for that road and traffic conditions. The other driver is at fault too.
- The truck driver was going at a perfectly fine speed, as evidenced by the fact he was able to fully stop before hitting the white car despite having no warning.
- Considering that the driver managed to stop without colliding with a sudden obstacle, I'm not quite as sure that they were going too fast. Other driver caused a major danger by not respecting right of way.
  
  The fact that stopping made them shoot their load is pretty obvious evidence they were driving too fast.
