    (KBAK/KBFX) — A car was dragged for 4 miles Wednesday on Interstate 15 heading up the Cajon Pass.
    Video of the incident posted to Facebook shows the truck driver saying afterward that he didn’t realize the car was hooked to his Grimmway Farms trailer.

    Totally justifiable. You know how long it takes to get back up to speed on a hill.

    Most of the 4 wheelers are speeding up the hill and zig zagging thru traffic usually. I bet this 4 wheeler was guilty of this and misjudge the trucks speed. You also see a lot of trucks(probably newbies) driving those wrong lanes on that route.
