You don’t get a 50-80k pound semi to leave the asphalt without speed.
Thank you for self identifying as a village idiot.

Hopefully it was quick. Don’t see how that was survivable. Prayers to his family, that’s terrible.

Unreal. Hopefully this sort of tragedy will accelerate the development of driverless big rigs.

An aging fleet of trucks + newby driver hires post pandemic = tragic outcomes. You couldn't pay me enough to drive a semi nowadays.

It was on 75 up near Allen north of Dallas.


The Dallas/FW area is my absolute least favorite place to drive through.


By far.

I actually often think when stopped in traffic underneath an overpass of how shitty it would be for a big rig to come off and land on top of me. Could’ve very easily happened to someone there had there been traffic backed up.
