    Between exit 39 and exit 44 on I -64, my understanding it is the west bound side. Hope all the drivers are ok. Be safe out there!!

    According to the WSAZ news 1 semi came across the median and collided with another semi starting the whole problem. 1 person is dead, and 1 is in critical condition.

    I sure wouldn't want to be in that one that went down that embankment.

    Blown steer tire?

    Everyone's running around like crazy with them elogs. Slow it down and enjoy trucking guys. The only appointment that matters is home time!

    Yes, you are correct. Home time should be the most important stop in anyone's life. 787 miles from Mobile, AL back to my driveway, things I see anymore on my way home are concerning. And it's not just 4 wheelers.

    I have a suspicion a cell phone is somehow involved here...
