When you consider how much farther a semi takes to stop compared to a car, the young man should have been able to stop. Along with following too close, he probably wasn’t paying attention.

That’s always a possibility as well.

He may not have been following too close either. The damage doesn’t look like a “following too close” accident. It looks like a “not paying attention” accident. I’m not saying he wasn’t following too close. Rather, you can’t tell either way.

The length of the skid marks would be very telling.
