70 WB near KC a no-go

One of our day cabs is caught up in that mess(more than likely the driver was based out of our Edwardsville,KS terminal).

Hope everyone is okay.

 

That's an expensive wreck...those bobtails in that one pic with the blue barrels are new decked trucks...Freightliner is gonna be short a few trucks on their inventory this month.

How much you wanna bet those blue barrels may have had hazmat in them. Also, the Marten day cab was pulling a relatively brand spanking new trailer. The new dry vans have a different style logo instead of the standard “Blue Bird” livery.

 

I don't think they have hazmat. I don't see any placards, and at least one of them would have rolled the right way so we could see it.

 

Those blue barrells are not the problem today. The truck it is spilling from is not wearing diamonds and there are no diamonds on any of these.

As far as the other two reporting sites they seriously degraded the image and video quality. it's not worth the experience if you are going to get a grainy view from two miles away. CDL LIfe in this case did a good job. Im pretty sure there are a thousand newly uploaded raw videos full of detail to feast on you tube.

Watch the video on this link showing all the idiots driving too fast for conditions

 

Sure was some quiet cb radios.

 

Wish I could watch it. I don't have a facebook account, so I can't even see what it's called. Has it been posted to youtube?
