That is terrible.

Only thing that I find you can do in stopped traffic is to use your hazards if you're at the back of the line, and leave enough room in front of you to try to get out of your lane - especially if you are behind a truck.

I dont relax until I know the vehicles behind have started to slow down/stop, once the foot hits the brake I have one eyeball on the rearview mirror.....

My only hope in this is that none of the family seen the truck coming at them. However, if I am honest I sadly expect that at least the father (driving) would have been aware of what was about to happen.

Always makes me feel sick when there are kids involved, as it did when that idiot footballer killed them 2 young lads just a bit further down the M6 a couple of months ago.

Please dont blame truck drivers per se for this, it is not the truck that kills....its the driver, and that can be in any vehicle......Obviously though when a large HGV is involved in an accident, due to the size and weights involved it is normally a very big accident and it is usually someone else that comes off worse than the trucker.

May they all rest in peace, and like mentioned before at least they are all still together.

Pictures of them all in the papers today. Bless them all.

Well said mate.
