    Basically with nowhere to turn around that stretch of I-5 was figuratively and literally a FIRE TRAP!

    I wonder how many got fired and DACed out of the industry for placing their safety at a higher priority than the company's equipment and bottom line.

    Driver: Uh dispatch? There's a raging fire on both sides of the road and I gots no way to turn around

    Dispatch: Driver, that load has got to go through!

    Driver: Dispatch, I've been ordered to evacuate by emergency services, can't take truck with me.

    Dispatch: Driver, you leave that load there, you'll be fired before the door closes! Walmart needs that toilet paper!

    Ancient Safety Clown: Driver! When I drove, the roads were MADE OF FIRE! Get rolling, blast you! Or we will hit you with Truck Abandonment, Cargo Abandonment, AND a Preventable Accident! You'll never drive again! Now GET GOING, you lazy cowardly SOB!
