    Hi All:

    This is horrific.

    Do you know that Shell employees are not allowed to answer a cell phone call even via Bluetooth when on Company business or they get fired? Makes sense to me.

    Hi Jud:

    One of the commentators said it was a girl and she was texting her sister at the time of the accident. Looking at the drift into the left lane and then into the center, it appeared to be something distracting?

    Seeing car practically exploded when that truck hit was reality in its worst form.

    I had seen this vid a while ago aon live leak.

    LOTS of vids there to watch.

    Lucky for the other driver since he was not hurt driving a truck from someone else fault.

    Maybe there should have been some sort of disclaimer on that video. Some of us ( okay, me) are a little disturbed to see instant and violent death right before our eyes.

    I agree - it was truly shocking and it took my breath away.
