    Could that possibly be a white Volvo?

    For the record, unlike the viral video of the 'professional driver' who recorded the Ohio wreck, I did not take these pictures. The wife, having both hands free, snapped them as we drove past.

    He should know better than to stop on the railroad crossing.
    He was probably checking out that nice place on the north side of the interstate.
    I’ve been by there many times.

    Could be either a white Volvo or a white Pete 579 condo sleeper(latest version of those have a high roof profile).
    We’d need to see the front of the tractor to be certain.
    Either way,that wrecker bill ain’t gonna be cheap.
    Driver must’ve thought the load was intermodal!lol

    I think it's in the white Volvo service manual, regularly water them Swedish horses.
