    With the amount of trailer intrusion into the cab, if that dude got out alive, he better count his blessings.

    That looks bad.

    I-40 East bound Santa Rosa, NM was a mess all day. Fog ice covered road and a chain reaction of jackknifed trucks and banged up 4 wheelers. What looked like a pickup stuffed inside the back of a moving van..not under, inside!

    Seems like it’s getting worse by the day.

    Sure you can, just need a 3rd grade english book and some time. im pretty sure around 2/3rds of the drivers on the road cant speak or read english....and that applies to many born here too.

    Haha, I copy the 3rd Grade English book... toward the end of my 'trucking career' I noticed that there was less communication between drivers, probably due to an inability to speak English. And less communication is not a good thing, especially in bad weather. :confused:
