I’ve driven truck for 32 years. RAISE THE MINIMUM INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR AUTHORITY. THEYVE BEEN TOO LOW FOR TOO LONG. Prosecute for bad hiring practices and lack of training. These types of accidents are completely senseless.
Hiring practices and training aren’t going to do anything about fatigued driving. This crash is an excellent example of why regulations exist. Without rules limiting driving hours, it becomes a race to the bottom of who drive longest with the least amount of sleep
Raising the insurance requirements is a dumb idea and wont improve safety. I’m an owner operator and have two guys working for me. In 2.5 years we’ve had no accidents; I can barely pay the insurnace now; rising the insurnace will put me and most owner ops out of business then y’all be left with only the big mega carrirers
@justinpoland1137 it would be interesting to see a comparison of crash rates from owner-operators with 5 drivers or less, medium sized companies, and large companies (cough cough Swift). I'd be willing to bet it's lower for owner-operators since you're focused on your equipment and employees, while the big companies couldn't provide that oversight if they wanted to

Flash your brake lights instead. They're much brighter, and they also light up that center "cyclops" light. If you have an automatic transmission, hold your car still with the hand brake, which doesn't activate the brake lights, and press the brake pedal repeatedly. That's an effective attention-getter, though it seems this truck driver was incapacitated - asleep or having a seizure or something.
What's even worse is that they were the third vehicle in and would likely not even have seen that coming due to the cars behind them. There was probably no chance of them being able to do anything about their situation.
Shame on the mess driver! So what was the NTSB famous "probable cause" and what are the recommendations to avoid a similar accident to occur? Was driver texting? Was driver falling asleep? Was driver in regulation regarding his HOS?
Investigators found the driver had less than a six-hour opportunity for sleep the day of the crash and regularly worked 70 - 80 hours per week. The trucking company, Arizona Milk Transport, operated under an “hours-of-service exemption” that allows unlimited driving hours for certain agricultural commodities within a 150 air-mile radius.
@@xftb-xq3gm I’ve heard of the rule for livestock (which arguably makes sense for living animals that have feed and water needs). That rule makes zero sense for commodities that aren’t alive.
"The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the Phoenix, Arizona, multivehicle crash was the truck driver’s failure to respond to the fully conspicuous traffic queue, likely as the result of fatigue. Contributing to the crash was Arizona Milk Transport’s (1) poor oversight of its drivers, (2) lack of fatigue management program, and (3) failure to enforce its own policies, such as those regarding on-duty hours-all a consequence of its inadequate safety culture. Contributing to the severity of injuries to several passenger vehicle occupants was their lack of or improper lap/shoulder belt use."
He blamed it on fatigue. BUT, he previously had an opportunity to get some sleep, and instead chose to drive. I guess making a few extra $$$ means more to him than killing four people.
I sincerely hope this idiot truck driver is in jail now. He blamed it on fatigue (they ALWAYS put the blame on something/someone else), yet he still decided to get behind the wheel of an 80,000lbs killing machine, and he killed four people with it.
Did you even read my comment, genius? Fatigue WAS the cause. He knew he was tired, and STILL chose to get behind the wheel. Would you prefer if that was fault of the four people he killed? You’re not very bright are you? Geez.
The route 80 and 78 traffic in new jersey and Pennsylvania result in exit ramp backups , especially fall gameday at the penn state exist . The experience truck drivers know to keep a gap
So I cannot find any information about if the truck driver was held responsible. He needs to be, at the end of the day he caused this. This was reckless disregard for anyone else's safety on the roadways. He should be named, prosecuted, and held accountable for his actions.
The driver was detained by DOT where he went with in 3 hours to do a full blood and alcohol test and his dash camera that was facing in proved he was not on his phone nor being distracted by anything else in the cab of the truck. This is why it is called an "accident".
@@ronnieam33 So he wasn't charged with anything? This guy should be in jail for a long time for this. If he wasn't distracted it's almost worse because he has no excuse for why he didn't see the stopped traffic.
Just because 4 people died, doesn’t mean “someone needs to be held accountable.” We are too into punitive procedures in this country. Unfortunate: yes, a crime: no.
If you're gonna have stationary vehicles on a 65mph highway and the only indication are 2 electronic signage boards no wonder that at some point this was gonna happen. Humans make mistakes, your system has be to designed around that fact.
There’s the billion dollar question. Why are they sitting in a live lane of traffic? If they’re going to stay stopped, put your four ways on, and be ready to dodge following traffic.
Well, other truck drivers usually do blame everyone but themselves. Just like the dumbass truck driver that ran into my truck two years. Too bad for him I had a windshield video camera.
The truck driver was driving down the road and could have clearly seen the lights ans stopped traffic. I am sorry but they do not let blind people drive for a reason. He is at fault completely for the deaths and injuries unless his truck failed to brake or had a stuck throttle. He could have also steered to the left.
I'm not excusing the truck driver but I've been deceived by how quickly an upcoming stop causes a backlog well ahead of the stop I was warned about. The signage could have been way better. I also wonder if the Chevy wouldn't have hitched to the trucker if it were a sedan like all the others?
Tomateo tomarto. Hell, I still find it odd that Yanks call a piddly Ute a truck. Though round here the actual trucks are much larger so maybe it's just relative.
1. Why not show the rest of the forward facing dash-cam on the truck? 2. Why were the police bringing traffic to a stop at Priest Rd. to begin with? Never a cop when you need one, but plenty of them to gum up the works when you don’t.
Let me guess, you are another trucker trying to pass the blame for lacking professionalism. This driver had multiple warnings about the danger ahead, there is video proof they didn't even touch the brakes, but yet you still try and find a way to blame someone else! Disgusting!
So why did the truck driver not react? Why did he not hit his brakes? Did he fall asleep at the wheel? Was he on drugs? That part is not explained here. Who just plows into the back of a line of stopped cars at 62 mph??
This portion is solely the accident reconstruction part. If you want everything else, you have to look up the full report, but to get you up to speed it was determined to be driver fatigue caused by him working 70-80 hours a week as per his company's timesheet records (Arizona has special labor law exemptions for the dairy industry which allows them to overwork their staff).
There was one aspect missing: Why was traffic stopped and was it preventable? It's easy to blame a single human, but stopped traffic in a busy road is a time bomb.
This video was just the crash reconstruction portion. Traffic was stopped due to a road closure, and it was preventable because had the driver not been pulling 70-80 hour work weeks they could have been awake and alert enough to see everyone was stopped dead.
Questions raised Why are they at a standstill in a live lane of traffic without any rear warning What is use of overhead display, which doesn’t seem to be using MUTCD approved terminology (I read it as there’s a police checkpoint, and be prepared to be pulled in, not disabled vehicles in right lane at milepost wherever it was).
The video very clearly stated the video evidence showed the driver had no reaction to brake lights, what makes you think the hazards would have snapped them out of it and prevented this accident?
Huh? You've never encounter randomly stopped traffic on a highway before? We don't know how long they were stopped there for but probably not long likely never even had a chance to change lanes. If anything maybe the first car is also at fault but how would it be the fault of the people behind him
the driver sits above a massive damage soaking engine block. The Chevrolet stuck under the front bumper was also soaking up a bunch of damage. If they remained consious after they were initially struck, side swiping the dodge and the center barier probably prevented them from escaping the vehicle on that side. My guess based on the curved track that the truck made prior to impacting the center median was the truck driver attempting to avoid other vehicles despite momentum. Once the trailer disconnected the cab has considerably less stopping power because there is no weight over the driven wheels and also lost the additional drag of the trailer.
It seems the driver never hit the brakes.... unless they failed....could be other reasons..... an absolute tradgedy....rip and prayers for ALL involved.

They're just showing the vehicles actually involved in the collision. The narrator mentioned that it was a queue of stopped cars, whether because of the police checkpoint, or to get off at an accident, isn't obvious in the truck video.
Car brain will put the blame squarely on the milk truck driver. I think he is 50% at fault. The system (planners, government, automakers, DOT and big oil) takes the other half. Why? Humans make mistakes. Car-centric environments are not forgiving of human error. Car dependency kills 1.5 million sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews...
