    Sad thing is that driver was involved in a fatal which though not his fault is going to wreck havok with his career. And regardless if it was his fault or not his insurance is going to go through the roof, a lot of companys wont touch him with a 50 foot pole, his dat is going to note this, his safety score will take a hit and his current company if not an O/O may cut him loose for insurance and liability reasons. Not to mention the dead drivers next of kin is HIGHLY likely to try and sue the pants off both him and the company.

    #### shame for all involved especially the driver.

    M 115 is a dangerous road I ran it many times heading to my cabin in Cadillac Mi.
    Should of been 4 lane 20 years ago , its the only direct route heading to Traverse City out of Detroit.
    Looks like a Darling kitchen grease truck.
    RIP
