    truck driver said he left 150' of rubber. sounds like he was light and gut stomped the brake a few seconds in advance to the crash. i doubt he would have gotten stopped when he did if he braked as late as some of you are insinuating.

    They need to start instituting the death penalty for idiots who cause fatal wrecks because of distracted driving or DUI. It’s obvious the slaps on the wrist aren’t doing a thing.
