According to this article SUV may have actually been a bus. "Officials believe the incident began with a collision between a semi truck and an “SUV,” which Fox News says may have actually been a bus."
17 dead following ‘mass fatality’ crash at US-Mexico border
It's hard to tell from the pictures in the article, but it looks like a dump truck (or a tractor) pulling at least two trailers. I was always scared of driving around those setups.Last edited: Mar 2, 2021

I’m guessing this accident uncovered a people smuggling operation coming up from Tijuana.

Countless times a year here in Tejas Dps will have a chase with a stolen pickup that won’t stop for a traffic stop. The pickup will flip at high speeds and 20-30 illegals get thrown out of it. The coyotes steal the f250’s,f350’s, 2500,0r 3500 crew cabs from the big cities and roll back down south with them for a run back up loaded with people.
Most of the coyotes can’t drive worth a darn.Bud A., sealevel, lovesthedrive and 6 others Thank this. -
