1. Pay attention you fucking idiot.
2. Omg,unless that truck driver was having some sort of medical emergency,was he or she even watching where they were going?
3. Was the driver charged? he didnt even seem to slow down!
4. As a disaster flick.
5. driver jerked the wneel right b4 impact.. he was looking st his phone
6. nothing like a 80,000 lbs 60 mph rolling missile.
7. A woman driver stopped in the right lane because she couldnt decide on a gas station to exit off to ...Caused all this
8. When I seen It I was like meh but when I went back I felt I was the guy in the first car I scarmed when I seen that go flying R.I.P to some of them
9. A terrible truck accident!
10. According to this accident, the people in the small cars had injuries but they were fine.
11. Pretty sure I know the truck driver, he was probably playing online poker while talking on the phone while driving from up north like he did when we were dating, the age and hometown match. I tried warning him how dangerous it was but some people think it will never happen to them or they just don't care. Why don't they publish his name or at least the name of the trucking company? I saw JR on the door.
12. This is why I don't trust truck drivers
13. wow, that's by the Grand Ave exit. It's completely the Semis fault, but notice that there is a driver that is going significantly slower than traffic should go. that's a major factor because the cars behind him are almost at a complete stop, making it dangerous conditions. If you're going to get off, go at the normal speed but slow down at the ramp, NOT ON THE EXPRESSWAY. Why? Well, behind those drivers are vehicles going 55mph who are not exiting. could cause a rear end collision that is horrific. want proof? Watch the video. You dont have to speed but go at a decent speed. on the exit ramp, then decrease speed. I know this exit exactly, because I use to pick up my wife from work at Gurnee Mills.
14. damn
15. this trucker should go to prison
16. also, the suv following the truck riding too close for that speed. All you drivers pass the driving test at the DMV and then you discard the rules on the road. as in ... driving rule ... driving distance equals 1 car length for each 10 miles an hour. So, for 70MPH equals 7 car lengths behind!
17. Before you judge look at the video closely ..
    1. the truck driver has two free lanes to change.
    2. The true culprit is the jeep at the front of the line, there is no traffic in front of the driver, who obviously was finishing up a text message or instagram. Absolutely nothing in front of the white jeep. Those are the people who cause traffic jams and crashes like this, but yes, the truck driver was not paying attention. I wish he had swerved around the traffic and hit the white jeep only.
18. Its amazing that no one died (as of now far as I know).
19. I've watched probably thousands of crash clips over the years, the is the first one to ever make me jump. I really didn't expect such a sudden & brutal smash.
