The driver is lucky that it was not another truck coming the other way. I don't know about this case but on a straight piece of road it is often hard to see well enough around a semi to confidently make a safe pass. People need to be more patient and stop accelerating into unknown situations. IMHO, a double pass requires commitment and indicates aggressive/impatient dangerous driving to me. Watch some Russian dashcam footage and you will never pass another truck again.
