Suspect in deadly I-70 truck crash convicted on most serious counts, including vehicular homicide (msn.com)
This was the deadly crash on I 70 eastbound from April 2019, what is really scary is the number of people defending this driver, calling it just an accident, and that he shouldn't be convicted, that the company and only the company is at fault, so many different excuses for this idiot

this is GREAT NEWS.....!!!!!!
i heard this on the radio this morning..
sentencing will be in November i think..????
"could get up to life"...
but most likely, maybe about 20 years, 10 years suspended, time served, out at noontime.drvrtech77 Thanks this. -
I am torn here. I think there should be accountability, but intent has to be measured here and I don't feel like it was. I don't believe he intended to kill those folks. I think inadequate training is more to blame. Too many drivers are getting shoved out here way too soon. Some aren't even going out with experienced trainers, if they even go with a trainer at all.

i am not certain intent needs to be shown or proven. he knew he had a problem, and if i recall, he never even stopped at the brake check area?truckguy391 Thanks this. -
I am surprised he showed up for court. I figured he would never be seen again in this country after making bail...
I am glad he showed up......Rubber duck kw, skellr, Bean Jr. and 3 others Thank this. -

Use all of the on ramp to get up to speed to merge
NOT pull onto the travel lanes from shoulder without accelerating first.
