Can we hear the stolen guns story?

Sure... he said he had been broken into (didn't ask him if the guns were secured) and they got a couple of fairly new Mini14's, left an older one and they got his Sig 226. He was pissed about that one, cause apparently he had worked for DEA at one point and it had saved his life. I didn't pry too much, but he was fairly sure it was someone that knew what they were looking for.

Interestingly, he said he got one (the one they didn't take) from Bob's Coin and Guns and they had the S/N of that one on record, but not the two newer ones, one purchased at Bass Pro and the other at another box store (I think it was Dicks). They were not able to retrieve the S/N's of those two..

Even if the driver jumped he would have been killed instantly.He was speeding way to fast for the road conditions IMO. I hope he was killed when he landed down below before the gas went up in the fireball. That is a painful horrible way to go. I cant help but wonder if he knew he was dead when he slammed on his brakes when he saw the accident up ahead. I also think that he decided to drive into the jersey wall and have the tank go over in order to save the people on the bridge as well. Most truck drivers that I know would rather drive their truck into the ditch in order to save a life then to kill them with their truck. When a driver make the decision to drive a gas tanker they accept the fact the chances of them being killed go way up as well. My son drives a truck for a living and that is my greatest fear that he will be killed in a truck wreck..

Neighbor to the ramp is saying the trucker survived the crash and was screaming. Burning to death has to be one of the worse ways to go

Frogman
I totally agree with you.. IMO its the most painful way to go...I can only hope that he did not live long at all..

I was wonderin' what y'all woulda had to say 'bout this, since it's been the source o' some hoohah on my other home.

Watchin' that vid 'bout really freaked me out, 'cuz I was out in the mess myself truckin' around tryin' to make my way down to Delmar.

Y'all can take comfort in that guy gittin' killed on impact with the ground. I'd bet on it.

This is the feller in question...

He was only 31, so he couldn't been drivin' fer too awful long.

He screwed up big time by goin' WAY too fast fer conditions. That's also the mark of inexperience, 'cuz a seasoned driver woulda been expectin' bridges to be at the very least, a lil' bit dicey. I certainly did when I left the house at 4:00 AM that mornin'.

Remember folks. Bridges and overpasses freeze FIRST, at ALL times. This is what happens when ya ain't mindful o' that.

So the 6, 8 or 10 truckers after him that lost it and slammed into the same accident must have been rookies also?

BigCity · Dec 23, 2016

According to a friend who was at the scene the driver was ejected from the truck and was about 30 feet from it when it went up.

Possibly.

Laziness and stupidity also played a part, I'm sure. Complacency kills, and in this here case, it did.
