    I certainly hope the driver pulls through but how many of these wrecks is it going to take in&around indy for these truckers to slow down on the ramps?

    I'm pretty sure the majority of all the interchanges from 465- 70, 74, 65, 69 that have curves are all indicated with flashing warning lights with 40-45 mph signs and rollover warnings.... Right?

    Most do yes.
    Honestly all most all those Jet Star tankers are moving fast on 465.

    UPDATE: State Police say speed was a factor.
    Jet fuel has been found in near by waterway and on some wildlife. Hope they have lots of insurance.
