I presume it is the right hand side in Muttrah.

Need breathalyzer tests on the drivers to make a fair judgement

I can confirm neither driver had consumed any alcoholic substance within a minimum of one (1) round before the incident. This is due to absolutely no alcohol being available in Muttrah City MEC main base. The collision may well have been an accident, but further investigation will decide.

You should have had your dash cam (i.e. Fraps) running.

Yup. Unfortunately I don't own the full version of fraps (money constraints), and the free version only records for 30 seconds

What were the surrounding conditions of the incident?

Was the road safe? Did any of the drivers have reason to believe that there might be hostile contact nearby? Possible distractions?

The incident happened just north-west of the South City roundabout. It was very early in the round therefore there were absolutely no enemies nearby.

Look at all the dust on the road, thats clearly against health and safety!!!

I believe the MEC use specialized tyres designed for sandy/dusty conditions. Both vehicles has these tyres fitted, therefore both drivers had to deal with the same conditions.

In addition to this, Muttrah City has very relaxed health and safety rules, with the main rule being 'you have an accident; tough!'. The main reason for the creation of this thread is to provide evidence both in the form of witnesses and/or photography for the insurance company to deal with.

Maybe they were going to get beer from the Essex, and that's why they crashed.

Hmm... pixel imagery movement shows images have been altered (which may include mirrored image).

Mr. declan54321, please state your relationship with the drivers and their wives. So far as we know, you might as well be tempring with evidence - a punishable offence.

Maybe earlier in the round the taxi got shot up and the driver of the taxi got scared and crashed into the truck.

Ouch!! looks messy, any survivors?

A bit of T Cut, it'll be fine, no-one will ever know!

Nope. Huge explosion that killed everybody instantly.

GoGuapsy; I haven't ever played with any suspects, and don't even know if they have wives.

Image was cropped to show accident better, and contrast was increased. No mirroring or tampering.

IT IS THE RIGHT HAND EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD...except your little island and some of your old colonies - loooool!

Actually I always try to look out for the other vehicle (you'll never know- he might just check his map or sth.) but a general rule of thump would be:

Left side on NwA....Right side on EVERY OTHER SERVER

p.s. Since we are blaming bad drivers in public - he said it did just happen...

From Wikipedia:

By 1922 the British Empire held sway over about 458 million people, one-quarter of the world's population at the time, and covered more than 33,700,000 km2 (13,012,000 sq mi), almost a quarter of the Earth's total land area.

So we aren't a silly little island
