All preventable? Crazy!

All the usual suspects were included: Schneider, Swift, Amazon, Fedex

 

Holy s***,somebody actually survived that?!?!

 

I would really like to see the accident report and witness statements from this. Someone told me that some of the trucks stopped in time and were pushed from behind.

 

Not the one I was thinking about, but the last section is a guy making it threw before they closed the hole, think this guy was the one I passed around exit 100 so he had a little more carnage to work around.

 

The last one was something.
The only safe driver out of the bunch.
And as he is navigating through and out of the wreckage a pickup truck speeds around him on the right, just before another tractor/trailer pulls out and cut him off.

Defensive driving is a lost concept these days. Now it seems to only be offensive.

And that one that flew around the truck to crash? I would not have stopped to see if the driver was OK.
Darwinism at work...

 

He wasn’t the only one to drive threw but I think he was one of the last before it got real bad.

 

Following too close, driving too fast, lack of brains, sometimes getting away with it, other times they don't.

 

Worked with some new drivers that were trained by the mega carriers. It was rather shocking to see how unaware of things they really were.

 

I was thinking about that aerial maneuver last Saturday and fondly recalling that *Frog* City Truck Stop had NO entrance/exit from the Eastbound I-10 Get On ramp or the thru road.
(* NO FROGS ANYWHERE except on the menu)
