Car crashes attempting last-second pass of tractor-trailer — Preventable or not?

This video is an adaptation of a scenario from CCJ’s Preventable or Not manuals. It is presented via a partnership between CCJ and Instructional Technologies. Two cars attempt to pass John Doe in an exit-only lane. One doesn’t make the pass in time, crashing into Doe and then a barrier on the highway. Could Doe have prevented this crash?
