[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] SUVs aren't the problem ... 18-wheelers are the real hazard around Maryland ... A couple of weeks ago, two doctors were driving on I-83 into Baltimore City. They were married, probably worked at Hopkins, and had their two kids in the back seat of their H2. The driver lost control, and got clipped by an 18-wheeler. As if that wasn't bad enough, the impact sent the H2 into the path of a SECOND 18-wheeler. The end result was a crunched H2, two dead MDs, and two (somehow) still living kids in the backseat. You probably saw on the news the gas tanker that overturned in South Baltimore. For whatever reason (perhaps due to the liquid shifting weight in the trailer), the driver lost control, the truck went OFF the bridge, and crashed onto 95, exploded into a big ball of flame and smoke, and killed several people, and shut down 95 for a day or so. Even an Army truck killed someone ... some yahoo in a ricer cut off a woman, who was forced to swerve into the path of an Army truck. Keep in mind that the DC/Balt corridor is littered with Army bases, and its not uncommon to see convoys of Humvees and trucks in forest green on 695 and 95. Anyway, the woman's car was crushed, she was killed, and the beltway didn't move for hours and hours. [/QB][/QUOTE]
