    Blunt Force Trauma. That must have been a bad bad bad Smash.

    I hope that there are prayers, love and comparative peace for those loved ones left behind.

    I crossed the yellow line once, I managed to get it back before the smash. But it was a very near thing, I think our trailers may have rubbed a touch. I don't ever know for sure; it was very very near thing.

    That stretch of 39 is about as rural as it gets until you get just outside of Bloomington-Normal. Closest thing to lighting you get is Nussbaum’s headquarters right off the highway. RIP driver.

    I can't even recognize any of the parts in the wreckage... Looks to be a very violent collision. So sad, RIP Driver. Thoughts and prayers to the families and friends.
