    ### sniffer.

    Wait, I know a thing or two. We're not 100% sure Meximan is to blame. I've seen Cascadia life. Very possible he backed over the Meximan.

    Have had this happen a couple times, just sitting there and they pull out right when the turn signal goes on, leaving no time to do anything

    Saw that in person a few days ago up in IA. No signal no nothing. From dead stop right infront of a truck. Truck couldnt get to the left because he was being passed on the left and was already doing only doing 30 in a 70 due to icy conditions.

    He had ZERO time to react and right into the back of the rig. He was on the other side of the road so i couldnt stop but a couple of other southbound drivers did stop to help. Didnt see an accident report for a fatal on 61 near otter creek so i think he was fine. But still

    Yeah there was a fatal last year on 94 just on the other side of Fargo, new Canadian trucker pulled out in front of a guy off the shoulder, since I run 94 and 29 a lot in the area I am always super vigilant about getting my ### over if I see someone on the side of the road, had it happen about a year ago on 94 right by Alexandria and couldn't get over luckily I was empty and not hauling steel but 75 to around 15 makes ya pucker real fast
