Spring time in Wyoming! Yeah!

Excellent story from the Laramie Boomerang:

“It was foggy — you just didn’t have any time to react,” Perry said. “You hit the brakes and it’s just ice.”
Chris Rowe, a semitruck driver in training, said he stopped his rig 15 minutes before the crash to switch drivers.
“I told (my mentor) I wasn’t driving in (weather) like this,” Rowe said.
The truck was going about 25 miles an hour when they came up on the crash, Rowe said.
“I got thrown through the front, and we had to go through the median to get out of there,” he said.
Several other semitrucks tried to avoid crashes, but not all were lucky.
“One guy tried to miss the accident,” Blair said. “He tried to go between (two trailers). He hit both of them and it peeled his cab back. I went around and helped him out of this truck.”
Blair pulled into the median after getting rear-ended by another semitruck, leaving his cab mostly unscathed.

 

Where and how bad?...I gotta go thru that God forsaken wasteland on my way from Reno to Dover

 

If you can see&know you can get a safe distance away...then get out if the truck....ONLY if there truly is a safe area you van get to...if not your better off stayin in truck.......

 

.........and somehow another Fed wrecks truck involved!

 

I think it's the same accident. I don't know why it shows up as today. But I drove by the scene of that accident in 2011. The trooper is the same...the driver was killed was from FCC and the driver of the slow truck was CRST driver from Michigan. Also that freight on the road is the exact same as when I passed it. That image is burned in my mind because I passed it just as the first responders were getting there....so this is either an amazing coincidence or a recycled story

 

if it was that bad, I'd of called a snow day, but if I was headed the opposite direction, I would tell them about it on the cb. Haha, like they would have a cb on

 

k2 web site does that with every article, shows todays date no matter when the article is actually from. It sucks, they know it, and refuse to change it.

Todays wreck was slightly different, clear roads, truck broke down on shoulder, stopped, being worked on, when fed ex literally ran over the truck and mechanic.
