Very tragic indeed. Seems more and more folks loose any sense they had once they turn that key. No matter what size vehicle. Our prayers go out for the familes of the victims.
I also hope they charge that truck driver with everything they can. It won’t help these familes, but it will help future ones.
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.

Vehicular manslaughter seems in order. 68 year old woman and two children dead. Multiple severe injuries.
Just inexcusable negligence...

I was driving along Monday afternoon westbound on I24 through western Kentucky. I was getting very close to my exit in Kuttawa and looking forward to a nice long shower and a good meal when traffic came to a dead stop. The accident that caused this happened about 8 miles further up the road just before the bridge that crosses the Tennessee River. This bridge has been under construction for months with only one lane open.
A semi truck barreled right into the slowed traffic killing 3 people and severely injuring several others. The only explanations which make sense are that the driver either had to have fallen asleep or was looking at his phone and not even watching the road.
