Just a quick question on the East Bay freeway roast…..

Has anyone commented on the sinister placement of the gasoline tanker at the intersection of two Interstate ramps……

Has anyone commented on the sinister placement of the gasoline tanker at the intersection of two Interstate ramps……

and how the ramps collapsed at THE EXACT SPOT where the fire was….

a fire well below the melting point of steel insulated in concrete

(and no one talks about thermite….)

the tanker truck driver. turns out he has rather checkered past, so who’s to say…



And why did Caltrans put the turn right where two critical overpasses cross?
by so funny!
thanks, amongst all these serious mayday protests, it's great to be having some fun!

someone at the nearby sewage plant said that liquid oxygen tanks (very very flammable) are placed in a building pretty close to the interchange.

The thing with reporting that the driver had past heroin arrests isn't really so legitimate. I mean, yes, trucks, flammable materials trucks in particular, and even a Nissan Sentra are all deadly vehicles, but where do you think the supply of drivers willing to do such a tedious high-responsibility task is going to come from?
Lots of independent owners are cutting it so close to negative profitability due to gas prices that they almost have to park their trucks until their contractors raise prices.

Here is another thing, the best way to reduce truck accidents would be to demand that companies pay their drivers by hour rather than by mile. Think about it. Drivers are always having to push the speed limit and suffer the costs of getting stuck in traffic, and aren't paid for time waiting to load and unload.
