I never did commercial driving, but drove trucks for the Army, for 8 years. I'm just trying to figure out what the driver was doing to get the truck like this. https://krcgtv.com/news/local/truck-crashes-into-overpass-early-saturday-morning-in-cooper-county

Well its a "Freightliner" these things happen. We had a Freightliner Cascadia SELF IMMOLATE at the Mill **PARKED** It was parked by itself for a day or two. Brightest 10 ft diameter fire ive ever seen. I figure- it was lonely, and knew it was a Freightliner **CASCADIA** and decided to commit Ritual Suicide. |

Donate to your local 2A organizations before the national orgs. The local orgs are proactive and get things done in your state house where the nationals are reactive and try to fix things after the fact and from a distance.
