Terrible Crash ...Indiana

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/story

 

some people just don't understand..the CB and drivers lounges are always ripe with the latest news (wether, true, false or a combination of the both) cause we all know truck drivers are the most informed and always tell the truth with out stretching it....BTW I have some ocean front property in arizona to sell if anyone is interested

 

Sorry for trying to keep the "story" straight.

 

as I know I stated earlier...we should wait for the facts as DOT and state Police figure out the whole story....but we should not try to eat our own and throw this kid under the bus...he's got enough to live with for now...

The facts...
overloaded minivan hit deer
minivan stopped in travel lane
truck driver attempted to stop (per state police and skid marks on hwy)
picture on 1st page shows driver tried to avoid (most damage on right side of tractor)
truck driver wasn't speeding or under the influence of alcohol or drugs
people died and it is a tragedy..
investigation still ongoing...

 

Wow this so sad, i hope this wasnt shotcs , i really like reading his stuff here, my prayers goes out too all the family here at there tragic loss, no matter whos fault it is,

 

After I finish law and medical school,

I will need to look into accident reconstruction courses !!

Thankfully ,

I already have my Navy Seal credentials !!!!!

 

even if he is offered t stay on as an OTR drvr, you know he wont,... stress and the fear, he wont ever drive again

 

Mayby this just me, but i think with the benfit pkg , they could also offer a counslor pkg for times like these, course going too the preacher works wonders for me, when i rolled mine.

 

That's not necessarily true. I had a fatal accident early in my carrer (1974). I was cleared of any wrongdoing. (drunk ran red light right in front of me, two people killed). It affected me, but after a little time off, I came back. It really depends on the person.
If anything, it made me a much more careful driver.

 

80% of the graduates of CDL mills don't have what it takes to be truck drivers and will be gone within 6 months to a year . That's a conservative figure . A while back trainers and CDL mill graduates that kept up with others in their class said it was more like 90% .
Use a little logic here . Schools and company orientation classes are always full . There are very few new driving jobs created so where are all these newbies going ?
