    Truck driver must have fallen asleep or had a heart attack. 'Sleepers Veer' made the truck pull across hitting a camper van, before running over a car and hitting an oncoming truck.
    It happened last Friday

    It was since flagged...here is another unflagged one

    Nasty altogether. Watching the car's brakelights come on before it's hammered by the truck bring home to me the human aspect for some reason.

    That was horrific - I would agree about the brake lights making it less detached. Not pleasant to think about how the m50 lane dividers would cope with something like that.
