Massive Fiery Pileup Involves At Least 5 Big Rigs: "It Looked Like A Bomb Went Off"

More people on american highways die EVERY year
despite all the safety talk, speeding, tailgating, driving long after you're safe to
be behind the wheel, road problems, car problems, weather, all these things are
contributing factors to the transportation
death toll...nevermind Osama, Christine's out there....look up the stats yourself.

Driving in the states is getting more and more dangerous each year. My thoughts are with the injured and the families of those lost. A tragic situation.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Let Congress know targeting Smokers with a $6.10 a Carton Tax Hike is going too Far!

This is why we as a society needs to buy green (locally). We are spending too much money and wasting too much energy (and now lives) by trucking our produce all over the country.

How often do you see Trucks pulled over for speeding..?

These fucking trucks are pushing 80 mph all the time and tailgating and running drivers off the road constantly..

They'll take often both lanes and force people to drive 80-85 on the NY Thruway, and in NJ too RT.287 is famous for speeding truck in both lanes..

California it's nuts and wait till all those safe Mexican truckers start up in their inferior vehicles..

There was a huge scandal of rouge often criminal truckers out of Texas whipping out whole families recently..

Commerce and money over Public Safety is all part of the fascist neo-con creed..

I know Michael Chertoff agrees..

Go ahead ask Him, he'll never lie..

LOL...!

Hiding behind sarcasm doesn't seem to work, does it?

My, my. My name troll seems to be in full meltdown mode.

Probably raise. She had to use a four-month-old sock last night.

Damn sarcastcennui, that comment is just plain nasty. Take your dark and dreary soul somewhere else.

Most of these Comments come from those who do not drive in Southern California on a daily basis. Millions of trucks pass through these truck lanes, rain or shine, every year without incident. U.S. truckers are very competent and to state otherwise is simply a fabrication.

It may be no coincidence that Mexican big rigs have just this week ventured beyond the 25 mile "no drive" zone previously enforced. How many of you have actually driven in Mexico beyond a border town? Mexican road culture is very different than in the U.S. And that's a fact.

Those idiots crying RACIST are shit and should reassess their position in society? They are clearly trouble makers of the lowest form.

NOTHING can be known for certain until the CHP completes their investigation.

It was not the first rain of the year, it rained about 2 weeks ago. But that is neither here nor there. The Colinga Tunnel in Northern Cal had a bad chain reaction years ago. I5 from Anaheim to Irvine has slam dances every day and many if not most of the cars are expensive (brains and money do not always go together). Families get killed by stupid drivers racing on surface streets. I don't think Nafta had anything to do with any of those. If you are too paranoid (either right or left) to see that, well that is what straight jackets are for.

Who needs "terrorists"? Americans seem to be able to bring the fruits of terrorism to themselves now.

So now the comments are in chronogical order, the top comment being the first? It's getting damn hard to tell anymore.

NAFTA WAS STARTED BY REAGAN, ALSO I WONDER HOW MANY MEXICAN TRUCKS ARE NOW RUNNING AROUND L.A. AND WHAT THE HECK WILL HAPPEN WHEN IT SNOWS, IN PLACES WHERE IT SNOWS THINGS GET BAD ENOUGH ALLREADY, WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN MEXICAN DRIVERS FROM DOWN SOUTH NOT USED TO SNOW COME UP NORTH AND ARE NOT USED TO IT, ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE!

My sympathies lie with the truckers. A seriously thankless job for people that bring all of your precious commodities to market. As for the trolls, you can take politics and shove them up your giant asses, bipartisanally.

Unfortunately I got stuck in the resulting traffic jam, a trip to the grocery store took me 4 hours,
I had to detour via Little Tujunga Canyon Rd. (google map it folks!) and even that was a busy road.
