    I rode with Dave a couple of times I guarantee tailgating was not the issue. While riding with him, I remember thinking I wish I could drive as smooth as this guy.
    I haven't heard if the other truck was moving or stopped. Medical event? Distracted? I haven't heard.

    That's why I don't mind the anti-collision system on my truck.

    Sorry, this reply was meant for another thread. Not sure how I managed to put it here. Sorry for the loss of your coworker though.

    I have to admit it has saved my butt a time or two with an exceptionally slow truck.
