    That Jersey Turnpike is a deathtrap especially with all the construction. Not sure how the bus was overturned but obviously it was very serious.

    I hope that everyone involved recovers fully.

    This one honestly makes me sad.. I listen to Tracy on Howard Stern all the time and he is such a funny guy and a good guy. Hope he recovers

    Yep, speeds up the process considerable, when trucks are involved.

    News is saying the truck driver dozed off. What they should say is the Jersey Turnpike is a death trap. I would like to know how they know he dozed off.
