    Even if the FedEx driver was trying to avoid the Nissan four wheeler the general public will blame the truck driver and will push for more regulations on us especially in that state (CA). Feel really bad for the family members for all those involved.

    I'd love to jump on the fed ex bash wagon but, never know unless you were there - crossing median could be many things.

    I took this when I went by. I had no idea there were any fatalities & it looked to me like a conestoga type trailer. I'm a bit shaken reading that people died in it.

    Northbound traffic is being diverted to 99. Southbound was still being let through when I went by. Huge emergency vehicle response. I'm not sure what to say.

    News article - the "drivers" died - therefore FedEx ground, team drivers.

    I feel for those that lost loved ones. It's going to be really hard for those who survived as well - this will haunt them. Wishing the best possible, for all those involved.

    All kids on the bus. They were all sitting on the grass over on the southbound shoulder, it looked like some of them were crying when I went by. If I hadn't stopped for lunch in Medford I would have been a lot closer when it happened.
