    Yes, Ive been trying to follow this a while.

    Seems to be a stolen truck. And I think he tried to use it as a weapon to hurt people in their cars too.

    Let's say that Im happy the Law showed up. Justice must follow our Laws against these predators because my brand is bordering on vigilantism.

    I don't like it when people grab a 18 wheeler and go out to hurt people and break things. That has to be absolutely stopped asap.

    Cops were actually chasing that guy. Said he was going up to 100 mph at times. He hit a bunch of 4 wheelers in the process. News says about a dozen were hurt. Haven't heard of any fatalities. If you seen the video ( i watched about the last 2 hours of it live) you can see a vehicle crushed at back end of trailer ( that was what burnt). That driver had to kick out his windsheild to get out. Got sent to hosptital with undisclosed injuries.

    It is just freaking unbelievable how totally stupid some people can be! It's like they can't tell the difference between entertainment, and when it's time to get the hell out of the area.

    I know all about that snap.

    Once someone does snap... that person is totally functioning without restraint of law or emphathy towards others. Essentally become a wrecking ball among everyone unfortunate to be in his or her presence.

    I've always wanted to put that bumper sticker on the back of my trailer that reads, " when i snap, you'll be the first to go!" it's just to make the four wheelers a little more jumpy and stay away from me on all sides.

    I would put one of those stickers on each side of the trailer right where they like to hang out and watch the tires roll...I wish my company would put a sticker on the side of my trailer that said "if you can read this, PASS me already"
