Another car causes a truck wreck in Indiana

Man it wasn't even 5oclock yet and he was getting saucy....

 

I feel sorry for the truck driver having to expiereence this. Hopefully he knows there is nothing he could have done to avoid this. I hope his paperwork is in order or a totally innocent driver could be railroaded as responsible for the accident. Thank God this pos didnt take an innocent life. As to the drunk GOOD RIDANCE!!

 

Social Darwinism at work.

 

kinda pisses me off they named the truck driver but not the idiot drunk behind the wheel.But this is exactly the reason everyone should have a dash cam. (both trucks and cars) cover yer ###.

 

I agree, but I think it has more to do with notifying their next of kin, first.

 

Don't be silly. How do you think you know that?!

[As the SUV returned to the right lane in front of the semi...]

Trucker lifts off throttle and expects to brake, collision presumably possibly if not likely avoided.

[...it suddenly veered to the right and left the roadway for an unknown reason.]

Trucker hits brakes, collision presumably possibly if not likely avoided.

[The SUV then swerved back onto the interstate.]

Trucker hits brakes, collision presumably possibly if not likely avoided.

[The semi came to a rest 900 feet from the point of impact.]

900 feet, after the collision.

Christian... I presume...?

 

Well, the thing you have to remember is he was probably the only inebriated motorist on the road within 200 miles.

Estimates of 25% of motorists being under the influence of some substance are probably exaggerated by "safety nuts".

Just keep the hammer down, these incidents never occur to those not expecting or otherwise unprepared for them.
