    I have been at this very intersection many, many times. It is not so bad. Yes, there are a LOT of trucks through here, but the answer isn't necessarily millions of dollars spent on a highway upgrade. The answer is CAREFUL and SAFE driving by truckers instead of trying to "beat the light".

    He deserves a big fat fine. I've run that route a lot of times wit reefers, dry-vans and flatbeds and never had a problem except with orher idiot truckdrives going too fast.

    The article says:

    So it doesn't seem excessice speed was a factor, maybe he was loaded unevenly, heavy on the right side of his trailer?
