    We don't know anything outside of that picture. Which drivers were killed? The truck, team? People in the smashed vehicles? etc. We know nothing new.

    I love how the fire trucks park inches from what was probably a blazing inferno. If they don't stop doing that it will be consuming them too.

    According to a local news station, this wreck was started by a 4 wheeler cutting off a big truck. Normal I guess.

    Lame article. Unknown why occupants died. I would say impacting the back end of a trailer at a faster speed than the truck was moving is a likely scenario.
