Really disgusting weeper of an article, but one that does give some valuable detains about the crash, like the vehicle was a 1997 Ford Expedition, making it 24 year old. Shows ow well Ford builds the whole F 150 class of vehicles.

They must have been stacked like cordwood, three, maybe four deep. I wonder how those on the bottom could breathe.

Not really. The 97s are mostly junkyard fodder or have been recycled. The engines those first gen Expeditions came with were not very good.

Why would they be desperate in a sanctuary state. People who reported them would be in more trouble than they would.

“Perils of *illegal* immigration and failure to protect the border.”

You do realize that if we would have had the Trump style laws, policies, and enforcement in place that this in all likelihood would never have happened.

It happened because under the more lax enforcement, manpower being diverted from securing the border, and Biden almost inviting the illegals to come in by the van/truck load.

It highlights bad driving

The driver pulled in front of a tandem dump truck with 30 tonnes of crusher run

Just awful accident

Could have been a school bus

Put the dead in bag. Put the injured on gurneys.

Put them all on trucks.

Send them to Mexico.

Today.

“They must have been stacked like cordwood, three, maybe four deep. I wonder how those on the bottom could breathe.”

Old Expeditions like that had removable seats, leaving a large, wide cargo space behind the front seats. I’d seat the cargo in three lines, two lines of eight and one of seven, with each person putting his/her legs around the one in front, and snuggling up as closely as possible to the one in font. No, I’m not interviewing to be a human smuggler Tight Pack Expert.

I wonder if the driver could turn the steering wheel or lift his foot onto the brake.

What it really points out is the lowlife coyote scum smuggling humans for profit.
