    Would you say that if he tipped over killing 30+ people including me? No, you wouldn't. I wouldn't have thought about reporting it, but A.) he was speeding into the corner, B.) he was speeding when he got out of the corner. I get maybe taking the corner alittle fast because maybe the light was changing and he didn't want to get hit, but to speed off at 10 KM/H over the speed limit is scary in a fully loaded fuel tanker. Did I mention that the elementary school nearby was just getting out? As I also stated he was near a gas station, if he blew that would to, taking out the apartment building.

    They came of the ground maybe 3/4 of an inch, just enough to see light under the tire, and scare the shot outta me. I saw the trailers as he drove of the were swaying a little bit, and you could here the P.O.S Freightshaker struggling to get back going again.

    If you were referring to me. No, I definitely wont feel like an #######. I am responsible for the actions of ME, and nobody else. Least of all some guy on the internet telling a story about what some other guy did LOL. Do you really think I should feel responsible?

    Now on the other hand, you were there. You saw what happened, yet you did nothing about it. Whats that say about you champ?

    You are awash in your own self righteousness.

    You must have been pretty close to see a 3/4" gap.
