    Couple obvious points: Big rig following distance needs to be double what is considered normal now. CB radios should be in every truck and turned on )"break check, BREAK CHECK!"). Maybe the 3rd or 4th truck could have reacted earlier.

    What good is a CB, when 75% of truck drivers don’t speak English?

    *Arbitrary number, so don’t get your panties in a wad. :rolleyes:*

    Hard to reach for the flasher button when your foot is up on the dash.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the next generation of Cascadias come with a feature that turns the flashers on automatically whenever the driver mashes the brakes.

    Looks like a car stopped for reasons unknown. Because, you know, cars.

    This looks like footage taken during the freak iced over roads we had down south recently

    Ice did it so it's actually the fault of climate change:)

    Definitely looks like a slow smooth action, unusual for dry pavement…
