Lovely weather yesterday!!
Yes I was coming south,ran around 11s by the natural bridge and then down the service road to get around it,took some time but not bad.
Before I got to that mess there was another jacknife back up farther north on the southbound side,about 3 miles before that a Vlovo passed me going atleast 60-65mph,when most of us were doing 45-50,as I was slowing down for the backup I look in my mirror and I see the truck behind me sliding sideways and about ready to plow into the back of my flammable tanker :? .So I let off the brakes and let it roll a little bit to stay ahead of him and he gets it over onto the shoulder and passes the cars stopped in the right lane.
When I make it up to the accident site there is the Volvo smashed into the back of another truck that had jacknifed,I left my name and number with the cops and told them of how stupid he was driving before that.
