Everybody walked away all 18 are still on the ground. Its the interstate I do you really maintain the 9 second following distance at all times? This could've happened to any of us on the forum. Don't act like it couldn't have.
I blame FedEx more than anybody you don't run fast in snow and ice with a set of wiggle wagons.

Hammer166 Thanks this.

Ever wonder why they run the way they do?
Sure is not because of safety, but the schedule of the load.Marksteven Thanks this. -
Listening to the audio it sounds like the truck with camera was talking on cb and not paying attention to what was going on in front of him. Also too fast and following too close.
Hammer166, stevep1977, blairandgretchen and 1 other person Thank this. -
Actually he wasn't on the radio until the very end. Any time there's a wreck and no damage or injuries, its a good day.
379exhd Thanks this. -
Yup, could've happened to any of us, BUT - as said, still driving too fast to come to a stop.
Harry would not have been happy. -
Freymiller guy is my hero.

Could have been he hit the same patch of ice the fedex lost it on, meaning conditions changed. Stopping on the road in those conditions just makes you the lead of a big pileup.
