    I'm through there 3x/week. Tragic and senseless. Slow down folks!
    Condolences to the families. This shouldn't happen.

    Just sat for an hour on I35 South of Waco for a similar accident where a semi rear ended another and burned. This one wasn't pretty, a tractor pulling ABF doubles completely destroyed. I don't see how anyone could have survived but I pray that all are OK.

    both truck drivers escaped the blaze without serious injury but the fire and debris on the roadway forced police to close the highway northbound.
