Default Accident close to home

Accident Shuts Down Interstate 79 South in Harrison County - WBOY-TV - WBOY.com

From the photo's, I don't think I've ever seen a big truck's front axle do that.

I've seen a J B Hunt cabover do something like that. He was in the closed lane where they were cutting out sections of pavement. Not sure how fast he was going, but he was far from stopped. Although, it did not take him long to stop after the steers dropped into the cut out section. They got to the end of the cut out section and pretty much just stayed there.

Sure hate to see a Kenworth in that condition. Never drove a T-800, but T-600, and T-660, and W-900 were all good trucks. Wonder if the Canadian companies treat their drivers the same as American companies after something like that.
