    Glad I no longer get to go out there, the money wasn't that good doing it anyway. Last time was early July when I was deadheading into Brooklyn. From nw Baltimore. Rather run Chicagoland, myself.

    I think I have identified the problem common to all of these multi-vehicle pile-ups ... Red trucks. So, apparently, there is some sort of synergy that occurs when a FedEx ground truck comes into proximity of 3 or more red trucks.

    And I'm sorry to report I drive a red truck.

    Never driven red since a 68 3/4 ton with a small 6 and a 4 speed, except for a rental Grand Am, when I figured out red paint was a magnet for cops. Red goes to some people's heads.

    Isn't that like the guy wearing red in any sci-fi movie is about to die or going to die?

    It's on all of those GROUND wagons.

    "Presidents award for safety"

    I've had good chuckles about that for years.

    Wow! Just looking at the front of the truck above the tipped over Prime, it's completely missing. That is a scary scene.
