look at the treaffic backed up behind the truck and the van , do you think there was aggression between the two , is there a chance that the truck driver tried to nudge him and lost it .

I'm a truck driver too. Even if the truck was having road rage with the van the truck would'nt have swerved that sharply, as mentioned sleep or heart attack look probable. Feel sorry for all the dead but the red rigid truck that could'nt avoid the impact was probably dead before the fire.
     Shocking.

Just goes to show, you can be the safest driver in the world and still cop it :'(

Exactly, look how that Transit size van traveleling in front copped it and flicked over.

Horrendous accident, this and the one of the lorry in the tunnel posted a while back are the 2 worst I have seen.

If you watch the slow close up run on the report in full screen (albeit a bit blurry) I'd swear I saw the front tyre give way just as it started to swerve.

Was wondering if that was the cas, unless the guy had heart attack/stroke etc
