    I am surprised they could even find a body after the corvette caught fire after hitting the truck.

    Well, "body" could be a relative term in this case. Just because they say they found a "body" doesn't tell you how much of said body was left, or if it was even in one piece... I wonder if it was suicide by truck; that is sadly starting to become more and more common.

    I don't see a burned car. Wrecked for sure but not burned.

    Wonder if the Corvette driver was under the influence (speed balling). We’ll just have to wait for the toxicology report, if they release it. The crash is so fiery that even nearby trees were torched.

    Drugs(crystal meth,8 balls,marijuana,etc.).Or regular prescription drugs. The driver may have been under the influence but not necessarily on alcohol.

    hmmm you must have seen something that isnt in the article. There is no mention of drugs or intoxicants of any sort in this article. Perhaps your thinking of another thread? It is easy to do here.
