    Not the best picture the tractor was completely burnt down. Looks like he ran right into a utility pole, the power company had just arrived with a new pole as I was passing by.. Not sure if he had a medical emergency or what? This was a good hour long backup.

    It can be a pretty busy area there. Hopefully the driver is ok.

    My buddy was coming down through there earlier and I got off the interstate for a bit. He thought it was a car hauler that flipped over, but it looks like a tanker.....he might have taken his eyes off the road for a sec there.

    That stretch of i75 from Chattanooga to Knoxville is horrible unless traffic is light....not sure why they dont widen the lanes too....it feels so narrow....

    That stretch sees more than it's fair share of wrecks, and there isn't an easy way around it.
    White oak mountain is awful.
    Very long run up and down, and impatient 4 wheelers redefine bad driver through there.
    Hope everyone was okay.
