    Hope you don't mind me posting this here. Wasn't sure where to post this one. One heck of a wreck. Not for sure but on the news video it looked like one of them shining TMC trucks. Like I said not for sure.

    Seriously? Thats it, even if that was his first?

    I tell ya it ain't like that here. We've got one guy still workin who's written off 2 trucks, and I do know of more people. Someone crashed 3 days ago and wrote off the truck (I'm gonna post pics soon) and I bet they still have thir job, they jackknifed in the ditch 2 weeks ago and crashed bad just before Christmas!

    The driver did a good job of securing the load. It looks like it's still on the trailer.

    Agreed! Its bad enough when a truck crashes, but when the freight goes flying, thats an equally bad deal for those around the truck.

    Luckily, he/she walked away (even if was on a stretcher!)

    I'm always amazed that the king pin or locking jaws don't snap.
