HarryS Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 This happened this morning on I-95 (southbound) in Prince William County, VA. Sadly the truck driver did not survive. Apparently there was a car involved where the driver fled on foot while being treated by EMS. https://wtop.com/virginia/2023/11/1-driver-dies-another-runs-from-i-95-crash-site-virginia-police-say/ Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73560-fatal-tractor-tailer-accident/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeH Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 That's a shame. Sedan driver fleeing the scene is weird, wonder what he did that caused the FedEx truck to hit that bridge pillar.

mechohaulic Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 same crap took place in CT couple weeks ago. main road (rte34 ) was closed for hrs due to a car running a red light put; a truck driver in hospital. unfortunate/unnecessary results were a 14 yr old died. start to feel bad for 14 till facts came out. the 14 yr old was a passenger in a STOLEN BMW at 2-3 in the morning, the driver of the stolen BMW was seen getting into another vehicle and leaving the scene .

DavCut Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I saw Mike's (Boston Trucker's) video over the weekend. That rollover was un-real! Everyone involved is lucky that nothing sparked and lit it off. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73560-fatal-tractor-tailer-accident/#findComment-542287 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I was waiting to see it go up like a volcano! Lucky all around. More and more people have less responsibility and will just flee to not get charged. Or they have charges already and don't want to go to jail(again). In Cleveland, it's been young teens stealing those Kias and such. Cheap thrills I guess? 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
