Yep. I’m just saying what the media is going to say. And normally ground vehicles must follow an escort vehicle out on active runways and taxiway. That escort vehicle is in constant rafio comm with ground and tower controllers.

Looks like the flight crew and first-class passengers took the brunt of it.

We could fill out a bingo card with all the possible causes. DEI? Sleeper cell? Truck of peace? ICE protest? Confused gender?

60 “minor” injuries is what I heard one of the reports say, plus a few more severe injuries, plus one or two possible deaths.
Perhaps most of the minor injuries occurred when the plane tipped back while they were evacuating out the rear (my speculation, based on what someone in a video who was watching commented).
Also heard the plane was taxing at ~25mph when the collision occurred.
