Two truckers die in Atlanta 285 crash

Stopped in a travel lane without even turning on his hazards to check an air leak. Truck wasn't even disabled since the tow company was able to drive it to the shoulder after the wreck. The police were correct to describe it as "monumentally stupid." Every day I think about retiring sooner than later.

 

Of course its an amazon truck. Why would it NOT be one. Those ####ers need to lose their ability to operate on the interstate and be held accountable for hireing the type of moron that does this.

 

Really wished these kind of things never ever happened, unfortunately they happen all to frequently, just feel so sorry for their families who have to move on with life. Very sad indeed.

 

Is there any reason for a truck to be stopped in a travel lane like that? I've always been able to make it to the shoulder if not an exit. Hell, yesterday I ran over some debris and tore the air supply to a brake chamber, was still able to get on the shoulder and up past a guardrail.
