    Knight hit something... see all the damage on its front... something must have happened in front of it to make it stop on the road like that...

    Yes sir.... I used to keep those clean too... not sparkling clean though... but enough to see the fluid levels, the leakages and the connections and rust, etc... always checked under the hood after truck came from the shop cause mechanics sometimes used to leave some mess under the hood... sometimes even forgetting screws and other things... :biggrin_2552:

    People who can't learn what is driving too fast and too close for the road condition always want to blame someone. But it's their own stupidity mostly.

    I agree... hopefully Knight had a dash cam to show what happened...

    He doesn't need dash cam. Driver who rearended Knight didn't obey driving rule #1
    You have to drive vehicle with such speed you will able to stop it in case of unforeseen obstacles on the road occurs without hitting obstacle.

    To add that in the press release the Highway Patrol estimated the road will re-open some time between noon and 4PM on Tuesday.

    Note that with at least 3 fatalities and with them only knowing it is over 100 vehicles this could be pushed back if they find more fatalities.

    Drive safe everyone
     
    WesternPlains and Snailexpress Thank this.

    I agree about that.. but I was talking about Knight and whatever happened in front of it... not about the ones who were behind it...
