What if it was a mechanical problem that caused someone to ram up under the truck.. never know the situation.

Well unless that mechanical problem was both throttle and steering you can always go right or left.

Don't crash and you will be fine.

I believe that was the one off of 287 in NY where the guy had a seizure or heart attack while driving.

Truly amazing road to recovery for the first driver. However the incident where the driver didnt make it, is a very unfortunate situation. Wishes/prayers go out to family even though incident may not have been recent.

Wow! Wasn't his time to go?

A 2012 Z06 can stop from 60mph in only 94 feet.

This means he did not see the truck in front of him until he was less than 94 feet away from it assuming he was going only 60mph.

They did not mention if it was raining or not.
