    The junction of 14 and 275 isn’t near Neligh, it’s right in town. Seems like a weird place to be speeding and running stop signs.

    as you said, most times, when a big truck t-bones another smaller vehicle, the trucker lives. then you said, it must have been a pick up truck, which we both know, the reporters don't know a big truck, from a little red wagon.

    so i had to search for more news about this.

    come to find out, it was a tractor-trailer, then they both jammed into another vehicle across the road...

    yup, hauling tail, i agree.

    I’d venture since the truck was southbound he wasn’t paying attention and didn’t know he was in town since there’s only about one block of town before the intersection when you’re heading south. Sucks that 3 people lost their lives due to inattention.
     
    Bud A. Thanks this.

    Went through Neligh today and the southbound semi must’ve been moving pretty decent. The house that got damage was about a block south of the intersection where the wreck happened.
     
    Bud A. and bzinger Thank this.
