This is short but very eyeopening when you consider how quickly ones life can end. Also, considering the truck is a gasoline tanker, everyone should be thanking God for blessing them with a continued life that could have been much worse if the truck had exploded

Glad nobody was seriously injured.
From all evidence seen, we will be told it was President Bush's fault.

Video Ping!

It seems that most of my pings for the foreseeable future will be video pings. They are easy to set up with minimum time at the keyboard. In this video you will see a gasoline tanker crash into a police car. The video is from a police cam on the dash......

Accidents happen... BUT. I don’t have a lot of sympathy when “professional drivers” lose it like that.

While I don’t have any real evidence, my own neophyte opinion is that the truck was traveling too fast for the conditions, and made a series of additional errors in judgment that resulted in what could have been a fatal accident for several people.

I think that is a truck driver that needs an extended “relief from duty”. He should be thanking God every moment of every day that no-one was killed!

Amazing what dash cams capture. I like this recent one from Ohio: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ6CPIM1ZCsM

Here is another video. This was subject of a thread a week or two ago.

The driver does survive, and I would say only because of the hand of God.

I didn't see any placards on the trailer, so it shouldn't have been flammable cargo and too filthy for a milk truck.

Looked like the driver may have been speeding and hit the brakes when he saw the traffic cop on the side.

Distracted truck driver?

The most important question, in the mind of the police chief, is ‘did the officer finish writing the ticket?’

Glad that everyone got through this unscathed.

Life does tend to get less than good when a gas truck explodes on you...
