    Guys it was neither phone or steer, i heard the driver probably had a heart attack or some kind of health episode....i live near here and thats what ive heard.....because the truck never braked, if the driver was alert, there should be at least some black marks where he tried to brake, but there arent.....

    That would happen, call those flying dutchmen. Its really unfortunate. Condolences.

    81 is a special kind of problem. Its a single highway link to everything south and west of the Ohio River and so forth. Its not good to have just one path for 100,000 vehicles to roll every day. One screw up and thats that.

    On the other hand the Shenandoah has been good to me in my lifetime. No complaints there.
