    While the driver of the semi did start to ease over to avoid contact, please note how radically the direction of the truck changed at impact. A one or two ton car can have course altering effect on a truck, especially when impact is on the steer tires.

    The minivan didn't even look like it slowed down any. I thought perhaps it slid on ice, but the speed seemed to be constant the whole time he was taped on the crossroad.
