    I just have a quick question, how do you make an illegal turn into your own terminal? He is in a white frieghtliner which means he is either GA. regional or one of the Bud. guys. I am sure he has been to albany a few times.

    Im not seeing it either. There's a center turn lane so which ever direction he should have had room. If he was making a right turn and drifted into the "hammer" lane, the car may have come into his blind side as he made the right. Don't know, hope everyone is ok, hope the driver retains his job!

    The only thing I can figure is that he wasn't going to the terminal, but taking a left on McCollum Dr to get to Miller and the Toyota was in his blind spot and the Volvo was following too close (why didn't the Volvo driver get a ticket???).

    Wow! I just saw this. I heard about it but never knew what happened. I heard this happened right after I left Albany on the same day. I guess some people thought it was me!!
