Had a truck driver with a “coughing spell” around here. He didn’t know when he left the highway that he ran over a car. His rig buried the car, and it wasn’t for 45 minutes that it was realized by authorities that he had flattened the car killing the driver. I wonder if a lot of these guys are falling asleep at the wheel. A rig rear ended a car on the Ohio turn pike last year. The car caught fire and killed the driver. It goes on and on.
Long time ago I was driving the middle lane of an interstate highway. I caught up to a tractor-trailer and started to pass on the left. The trailer started moving into the third lane. So I fell back and moved over to pass on the right lane. The trailer then moved into the right lane. I swore and moved back to the middle. Then I watched the trailer move into the breakdown lane and on into the ditch. I stopped to check out the driver. He had a stunned sleepy look.
