Another rear end collision between big trucks.

Suprised there’s not 100’s of these every day as close as all the trucks stay to each other

 

Holy Sh#t!!!! I've seen trucks tucked under trucks before but nothing like that. He had to have hit with the cruise still set. God rest his soul... Hope it wasn't a team.

 

Looks like the truck that was hit was a turnpike doubles set. Possibly hauling empty aluminum cans?

If my Scranton to Hartford load wasn't held up today, I'd have had to deal with the mess on I-84 that resulted from this.

 

53s. Turnpike doubles. Legal on the NY Thruway.

 

Yeah I know but the truck in the rear got clear under the back trailer up to the tandams on the front trailer

 

We had to have special 48 ft for Marcy Ny. You can see them parked at DCs all over. They have a big sticker of a stop sign on them.

 

I’ve seen a few carriers running 53 foot doubles on the Thruway (DOT,Gypsum Express just to name a couple examples).
I was going to say from the way that wreck looked possibly platooning gone wrong??
