Agreed, well said. The same thing happened last weekend near where I live. A mack truck slammed into four vehicles that were stopped at a Border Patrol checkpoint on I-87, which leads from NY City to the Canadian Border. Four people were killed.

Had it happen to a friend of mine a few years ago. They were stoppped on a US Highway waiting to turn left and a Mack barreled into their butt end. Fortunately they were driving a big aircraft carrier of a Lincoln Town Car and this saved their life, as the massive car absorbed the impact. It turned out that the driver was stoned out of his mind on pills and hadn't slept in over 12 hours. They really need to crack down on these Semi-drivers, they way they drive, they are really Semi-drivers if you see what I mean.
