6 people in the semi? I know some have a big sleeper area but. That is crazy. Just like when A mini van stops at 7-Eleven and 8 Mexicans get out all dressed in the same uniform work clothes. And all the same height to boot. I bet his insurance turns out to not be an actual policy

Guaranteed the D.O.T. will be looking real hard at this situation. Federal law dictates no more than two people in a commercial tractor trailer and only then with an active rider policy.

The driver never even hit his breaks!! He did not even try to stop!! There should have never been so many people in the trailer, but breaking the law and running red lights must not concern the driver of the truck. He should be the one in TICU not Craig.

That intersection is a death trap! How many fatalities have to happen there? An infant just died from an accident that occurred a week ago at the same place under the same circumstances. Any resident who drives down that road can see when a car is coming and they also know that the light changes almost immediately when a car approaches. One of the victims just lost his wife a little over two months ago in an accident at the same place. Please pray for his 15 year old daughter that she doesn't lose both her parents like this. Pray for Craig and Edna and the driver of the semi's family. And pray that the driver of the semi who ran the red light doesn't have to live with anything worse than causing this horrible tragedy.

Please pray for Craig and Edna and Craig's family. His 15 year old daughter just lost her mother in an accident at the same place 2 months ago. Too much tragedy for a little girl to have to endure. Please also pray for the driver of the semi who ran the red light that his family will be okay. Although this accident could have been prevented that is a very dangerous intersection and too many lives have been lost there.

No one reportedly involved in this incident was Hispanic. Your racist, ignorant comments infest the Topix boards. Go play somewhere else !

Daily Horoscope for January 6

Scorpio

Don't let yourself be caught up in a crowd mentality. Just because someone else makes a major production out of what should be a simple matter, doesn't necessarily mean that it has to affect you adversely. You might be able to bring down the volume with a tap on the shoulder and a meaningful look. Even though it might not seem like it, your cool head is definitely appreciated at times like this.
