This Video Will Make You Hate Comcast More Than You Already Do

It’s maddening to watch. Sure, maybe some of the drivers were going a bit too fast for the conditions, but the Comcast truck driver knows he’s blocking the road just past a blind hill. The people coming over the hill don’t see the cones he put out until way, way too late, and that’s when the carnage ensues.

1. as a service technician who deals with the public on streets several times a week i can tell you this. should they have put more cones out? probally, but if they were doing what they were instructed and trained to do, they they were in the right. 2. i saw many cars driving on this video and 90 percent of them were not only doing well, well over 40, but were driving way to fast for the road conditions. period. 3 the asshat that was so concerned with being bossy and in charge, should have went and stood at the top of the hill and slowed people down, or at least gotten ran over trying since he was soooooo concerned. people cant drive, its a fact they were driving to fast for conditions and to fast popping over a hill on snow and ice. this will never change....4 someone either the mouthy guy who wouldnt shut up or the comcast guys should have called the poilce and let them deal with this. mouthy guy was only making himself look more stupid than he apparently already was. 5. these people have a job to do, let them do it. for every mouthy guy behind the camera, there was probbally 10-100 people with no service screaming about it getting restored... my vote goes for this was the drivers fault driving to fast . 6. we use our trucks to protect ourself from asshats who cant freaking drive. we would like to go home to our families at night and not get ran over by a dipshit texting while driving on an icy road going way to dam fast!! 7 for you idiots screaming it comcast fault, i can almost gaurentee you would be the one on the phone screaming every 30 minutes if your service was off....

The *asshat* put out his own cones to prevent accidents. And safety should come first. Even if they were trained to only put out a few cones..common sense and human decency would have them fixing their part in this

So, where were the police? What was their response?

Comcast/xfinity men are dumbasses and don't give a damn
