    The pumpkin was running late for the ball.. Then he spotted Cindrella on the shoudler. And as they say the rest is his story.. what a jerkass driver.

    Wow Does it say anywhere if anybody was seriously hurt or killed. If you look there is a black car door in front of the trailer but the only car i see is the red truck.

    dang.. looks like all the lanes were moving steady, then he came around the corner and his was backed up... jerked it into the left lane, hit the wall, and ricocheted across the highway.

    The trailer knifed and fell onto the Chevy S-10 p/u. -then pushed it 200ft. This is right by the Milwaukee County Zoo I41/45.

    Front tire was blown out on semi, maybe have been carrying rolls of paper/plastic in that intermodal, but still only 31k. Milwaukee is an older Germanic city and they like their twisties = slow down.

    I belong to another website that is run by a Schneider associate. Some one grabbed photos of the truck at our Green Bay terminal and posted them. Yup, there's no tire on the right front steer. Looked to me on the videos I've seen, that he lost the tire, overcorrected to the left, and lost it when it appears he hit the wall. At least I hope that's what happened. But, if he is an unsafe driver, ban him from driving altogether, not just big trucks.

    eh... how does a blown tire turn into hitting stopped traffic at 40+ mph?
