You're good at speculating about someone you don't even know. Maybe he had just gotten a call saying his father was dying.

This is the most pointless thread I have ever seen. I could post all day about the stupid **** I see people doing in their cars.

All right as an Army vet I take exception to you calling those tankers "idiots". Notice the M-1s are camo so I can only assume that they did not see each other! How would you like to have 120 tons sitting on top of you. I bet the driver of the 2nd M1 crapped his pants.

Seriously those guys are probably 18-20 years old and they are given a 1500 horsepower, 120 ton beast to drive. Accidents will happen. I am just thankful they are out there for us.
