    I had a post typed up that was totally inappropriate reflecting back on to topics in the freehuddle...in the past few days, but I didn't go there.. In light of the situation I didn't hit the enter button. (Thank Goodness)

    My ex father-in-law had over a million miles of OTR and never had an accident...and that was back in 2001. Stinks that this happened.

    ...It said he had only slept 4 hours in the past 27 hours, so watching porn distracted him for sure but lack of sleep played a HUGE part in this unfortunate accident.

    Any time you read some ridiculous story like this, it always seems to involve an Ohioan. We're not exactly known for making the best news around here.

    Around where? Ohio? Who makes the good news around Ohio? Non-Ohioans?

    Agree.
    I see some post calling this guy a perv etc..
    I guess if he were watching Three Stooges reruns it would not be as bad.

    This is why you should keep two hands on the wheel at all times.
  • v_falcons
    he probably wasnt driving with either hand..

    He must be Greg Oden if it takes 2 hands.

    Reminds me of the late Timberwolves player Eddie Griffin who was drunk and watching porn when he crashed his SUV. Must have just been a poor driver in general because he passed away a year later from another car crash.
