California: Semi-truck plows into three cars and rams gas station

Looks like the truck never slowed down.

 

You know, normally I might believe this, but with all this AI crap, like mom always said, "believe none of what you hear and half of what you see". If it was real, they sure had the hammer down for a city street, I don't buy it.

 

Looks a real crash to me as this crash can be found on several news outlets including Bookface.

My only issue is I cannot tell when or how the circled car enters the fray. It seems to appear out of thin air. Perhaps @mjd4277 can be of assistance. There are two angles of this crash and neither clearly shows the origin of how this car shows up in front of the tractor.

Also, because I'm such a nitpicking ####### at times, the AI voice from Chinatown's video states this wreck occurred between Anaheim and Fullerton. Sorry, but there's nothing between Anaheim and Fullerton.

 

Hi, honestly, it could be real, but I was watching a compilation of AI generated crashes, not all semis, but dang, they looked so real, a layperson literally couldn't tell, and that's what they go on. AI generated crashes usually have some indicator, like a semi crash, while the truck looked exactly real, a FL and van trailer,,in the crash, the trailer comes off the tractor, which rarely happens, and when the trailer did come off, the tail lights were still on. People not familiar with trucks, may think that is normal. This particular crash, could be anything, medical, mechanical, or distracted, but seems like a pretty severe crash for a city setting. Also seems like the video may have been sped up, to increase the zing.

 

It appears to be legit.
I looked up State College Blvd in Fullerton,CA.
There is indeed a ARCO gas station at the intersection of S State College Blvd & Orangethorpe Ave in the city. The ARCO is on the west side of State College Blvd,which means the truck was coming from the north when the accident occurred.
