SO scary!! Glad you're okay and so sorry that happened to you guys. Take care of yourselves!
Glad you, your codriver and everyone else is OK. Also glad for your that it wasn't your fault. Stay safe.
I seen a over turned truck in the ditch while in my way to Joplin Missouri, it was on I-39 I believe. I was going to stop, but there was already 3 cars so decided to keep going. Shortly after I seen an ambulance and police go by.
Glad you and your codriver are OK Tinker.
Whenever I see traffic coming to a sudden stop in front of me I hit the four way flashers to try to alert those behind me. I just got a new truck and I have all these computer devices that literally take things out of my hands and automatically slow the truck they don't have the Kinks worked out of them a hundred percent yet... Vehicles will be out of my Lane and in the right exit Lane and it will still cause my Truck 2 drastically slow down and I am a good 2 seconds plus behind them. This was addressed on some of the other threads. It's like a ghost is in charge...

Just a reminder to stay safe out there. My codriver and I were involved in a crash this morning on I40 in California. We were rear ended by another semi when traffic came to a stop. The other semi never slowed down and plowed in to us at full speed. There were no major injuries, thankfully and surprisingly! We are currently stranded at a gas station out here waiting for our company to arrange a ride to the nearest town. My best guess is the other driver was distracted or fatigued and never saw us stop. Stay alert, stay alive.
