ranchhopper Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 This may qualify for the tore up Tuesday thread but look at this guy wedged between two trailers in a wreck in Oregon the article stated he was in good condition when extricated. I would have gone and bought lottery tickets if that was me as soon as I could lucky there was no fire or it would have been real bad for him.

PeterMack Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I'm curious as to what kind of pickup he was in. Must have a good built in crumple zone.

Vladislav Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I would say he's lucky although he would have much more luck if haven't been there at all.Unfortunately we never exactly know what we will meet next to the current curve.

Freightrain Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Ok, so he rear ended a jacknifed semi and spun around, then another truck coming side swiped him. Thus, he was not doing anything "bad" or passing between, etc. One very lucky guy. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

ranchhopper Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Did anyone watch the video of the multi car and truck pile up in Michigan is it just me but did the cars and trucks in that video seem to be going way to fast for the conditions? Im not trying to beat anybody up here but the visibility had to be really bad to come up on that pile of cars and trucks as fast as they did and have anywhere to go or even anyway to slow down.

68-f-model Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I-94 is just a zoo with the smallest amount of ice of snow. Some people drive 15 mph with flashers on while others are doing 90. Luckily my house was just outside the evacuation zone for that mess.
