Fuel Tanker Crash Kills One

[@BellaBoop152]

The people walking up with their phones and smiles I wish they had a little self awareness. Imagine if they were involved in the crash?! I bet they wouldn’t be smiling then

[@Chris_L034]

im sure his cell records will show how blacked out he was.

[@TheLinuxYes]

yea, might be a cell phone issue for sure.

[@I_g_396]

As a truck driver myself I see so many truck drivers doing stupid crap nowadays they think it’s cool driving like maniacs then shit like this happens.

[@kaygomez1927]

Facts 💯🙋🏻‍♀️

[@vrsz]

One of my biggest pet peeves is how truckers tailgate other truckers. They make it hard for people to exit or merge into the left lane. How am I supposed to merge when you make it impossible for me? One trucker had the audacity to honk at me when I cut him off because of that very reason! Not every trucker does this but it has become a normal occurrence. Go into the 710 freeway any time of the day and you'll see what I'm talking about.

[@1point3ie99]

Then you must be the talking about yourself if you can’t see how the driver of the car was at fault. There’s no way that car lodged underneath the car could have done that without speeding well past the speed limit.

[@juliogonzo2718]

​@1point3ie99 in the description it says the truck driver blacked out and woke up in the wreck. Truck Driver probably fell asleep. He's probably going to jail unless he can prove it was medical. I highly doubt the car lodged itself under the truck, the truck likely rolled over onto the car

[@1point3ie99]

@@juliogonzo2718 there’s no sign of the truck making a perfect barrel roll on top of that car. If that was the case, the passenger side would look like a pancake. And the fuel tank on the driver side of the semi would be smashed in. The description isn’t stating any facts. That driver was trying to beat that trucker at the 105 East merge to the 110 north by the looks of it. And he looks like he was well over the speed limit to be that far. Under the semi. On the maps you can see the accident happens exactly at that merge.

It’s amazing how nobody pays attention while driving seems like it’s getting worse everyday unbelievable

-Blacked-out- = "Distracted driving"

[@juliogonzo2718]

Or fatigued driving. It's suspicious the truck driver left the scene to go to the hospital in a private vehicle. I would think the police wouldn't have let the truck driver out of their sight.

[@user-ps3su8li4e]

That driver better be held accountable.

Why .. how do you know it was his fault

The doctor that gave him his DOT physical should investigated too.

He told one news outlet that something hit him forcing him to crash, and he left the scene. POS

[@ononeproductions5749]

Most likely swapped drivers

[@juliogonzo2718]

Yeah the leaving the scene unescorted is very suspicious. No way the cops would have agreed to that after a fatal involving a semi

[@LezliByrum]

Nowhere to be found. 😢

[@NadineMiller1974]

How can they for sure know if it was only one person in that car since it has an entire truck on top of it. Hopefully they didn't suffer.

[@user-ln7of9gs4s]

They probably looked. 🤷‍♂️

[@juliogonzo2718]

Yup nightmare fuel just driving along having a normal day thinking about stuff and suddenly everything goes pear shaped and a truck squishes you and it's over.

[@brianlutz7813]

That's some Final Destination shit ... fucking horrible for the family of the deceased.

[@10super]

Yeah the drive tires of the truck somehow ended up on top of the car. That's really odd

[@davidgalloway1526]

lets find out where the CDL driver received his endorsements... i spent 30 years as a truck driver pulling doubles, triples, tanker, and HAZMAT and i have many drivers who are unqualified to driver semi trucks...

[@Itsjustme1982]

this crash makes no sense. But Rip to all involved. :(

[@TheLinuxYes]

damn, looks like a movie set.

[@90daysinvegas53]

How the hell did that car end up under the semi truck?..

[@maestrovso]

What a waste. Avgas 100 is $6.5/gal. I blacked out just thinking about it.

[@iblong9505]

THey said it was jet fuel later in the description. If it had been 100 av gas the FD woulda been freaking out. Flammable vs combustible

[@philsmidwestclassiccars150]

Jet Fuel is usually cheaper than regular auto gas. Avg price for aviation fuel is about $116.00 a barrel but the price fluctuates on the market as it is a commodity. There are 42 US Gals. in a US Oil Barrel, so $116/42 Gals = $2.76 per Gal.

[@maestrovso]

@@philsmidwestclassiccars150 Avgas 100LL is not jet fuel. Jet fuel is basically diesel and kerosine mix. Avgas is low lead aviation for ICE (as piston) engines that are NA or turbocharged. Avgas is closer to premium (as in high octane) low lead gasoline for cars before it was phased out. BTW, all fuels are commodity by market economy and commerce and industry.

[@charlotteruse158]

Jet fuel yikes, and thats a special endorsement. So....he looked up, yanked the wheel, flipped the truck and landed on the car that was following way to close? Anyone?

[@Mikefngarage]

I dont believe jet fuel has a high flash point. Kind of like diesel. or it would be a huge flame ball.

[@iblong9505]

@@Mikefngarage Ya, it's just diesel with antifreeze and sometimes higher sulphur

[@charlotteruse158]

@Mikefngarage Well I'm glad somebody knows what they're talking about, lol

[@1point3ie99]

The car is directly undeath the semi, I doubt the truck did a barrel roll into the car, from the looks of it. Only way that could have happened is the trucker was driving below the speed limit which “55” which is slow enough already on the freeway, and that car was going insanely fast to end up both drive axles. That car must of been going so fast he tried merging beating the truck, but ended up underneath not only picking up the semi and dragging it across the freeway, but popped the kingpin off the fifth, detaching the tanker. Look at the end of the tanker to where the semi and car ended up.

[@brianhourihan5613]

it's like a scene out of Chips

[@GregConstado]

Driver is lying no one hit him killed a 19 year old girl called other tanker companies they are saying owner doesn’t drug test and makes drivers drive when they are tired take owner to jail

Everything saftey seems to be working. Years ago I was encharge of a fleet of trucks over 10 years no Accidents then the saftey insurance people came and its looked like this since.

R.I.P The person that lost their life 🕯️🕊️ My sincere condolences to his/her family ❤️‍🩹 That’s a first for me, it could have been a whole lot worse with all that fuel leaking out. If that tanker driver was fiddling with any devices he’s going to be in a whole heap of trouble.

The description is a rambling mess and is repetitive. Who the hell writes these the descriptions and what substances are they on when writing them?

[@rjkoeller4444]

Those tankers hold a lot more than a thousand gallons.,.It's more like 5 thousand gallons , and judging how wet the road is I'd say there's way more than a hundred gallons of fuel spilled .
