    Probably a cigarette butt. I still see idiots tossing them out on the road all the time.

    Terrible loss.
    From the pictures it seems obvious the second truck (that rear ended the first) was following too close. Most common and dangerous bad habit I see amongst drivers.

    I really dont think your gonna tailgate another truck and hit it and drive your truck all the way up to the drive axles of the truck you hit.
    More than likely truck one was stopped and the white what ever it was truck drove full bore into it because the front bumper is at the drive axles.
