    Looks like he never hit his brakes. I hope he wasn't texting . But whatever he was doing it turned out deadly.

    I10 and I12 need more lanes. The amount of truck traffic is outrageous. I live in Texas and really enjoy Louisiana but it’s one dangerous state to travel in.

    RIP to the driver.

    I’ll take a guess at this and say someone was possibly playing super trucker. That stretch of I-10 is under construction from the Pilot truck stop exit to the I-49 interchange in Lafayette. And parts of the highway shifts lanes! RIP

    Reporter said it was burning and took 5 hours to recover his body. Guessing the rest of the truck just doesn't exist anymore.

    If it was a Swift truck we’d have all the Mega and their poor training comments to read.
