That is truly horrible...
what's the story? why did the semi do that?
i was rooting for the little yellow van to save it.
I'm guessing massive mechanical failure. As he plows across the other lanes he seems to be steering into the skid. Well, until he drives through the red lorry.
But seriously...

+1 on the little van then I started watching closer and I saw a car between the trucks, then I started watching closer and realized there were two cars and one of them gets taken out right away and rammed into the wall infront of the veering truck. What a horrid accident. Translator?
terrible.
I was glad to see the guy climb out the back of the van, but I think there were a lot of people who didn't get to walk away from that.
That is indeed horrible. They need better barriers. :-X
But that van was awesome. Too bad he didn't save it.
Holy!! :o :o Just clicked on it and then the same thing came on the TV.
holy shit! :o
that barrier didn't do a damn thing against that truck. we have anybody around who can translate that for us?
wow...
life can end when you least expect it gang...
...horrible.
Horrible :o

i heard a lot of "muerto" :-X
i think i would be severly aggitated if i were in one of the cars heading the opposite direction of the barrier crashing truck.
i wouldn't have much of an opinion if i were in one of the 2 cars next to the red truck though :'(
Ok, that is kinda scary... traffic moving smoothly, nothing to suggest danger - then BOOM - truck careening out of control. :-[
"firday afternoon a TIR (white truck) looses control and invades the opposite lane of traffic. The guy who was driving was Polish, probably fell a sleep (the TIR slows a lot before swerving) or was cought by illness.
unfortunately 7 dead...the 2 truck drivers and 5 in the overtaking car and the next one....
the yellow Truck hit by the TIR was driven by 2 Austrians that were unharmed!
the freeway was closed untill the next day....they had to re-pave 0ver 100ft of asphalt that ment in the accident"
really really sad :'(
