Tanker explosion kills driver, shuts down ramps

Listened to the video. I would love to find the idiot who was yelling "yee-haw" and choke him till his eye balls pop out. What a disrespectful jerk.

 

I'll help you choke him. I just watched that video. I first heard of the accident on my way to HCC this morning for my final day at truck driving school. My deepest sympathies to the drivers family.

 

well first id like to choke the a hole who wrote the article,he says the truck was driving sooo fast it caused the gassoline to shift and turn the truck over,he put that so fast in there like the guy was doing 100 mph,we all (well those that have a brain )know that 80,000 lbs of liquid will definately tip you over when it moves around to much.maybe the guy took the ramp to fast,but i would not say so fast,thats missrepresenting the whole thing.second id like to throw that basterd who was yee hawing into the fire and see how he likes it when we all hoop and holler while he is burnt to his death

 

When I was OTR I came upon a tanker that crashed and burned in the median when I was heading up to NJ. Truckers ( loose term) was cussing this guy that burned alive because traffic was stopped. They were saying I hope you burn in hades as well. Ticks me off how the industry has changed so much. Used to be a time when drivers were concerned with each other.

 

the respect we all should have for one another is definately not what it once was,im not saying im an old hand,i started in late eighties,but im ols school becuase my dad(he started in sixties)even the short time ive been in it has changed alot.
