Another accident. The driver could use our help and prayers. A good reason to have really good brakes and maybe the Yellow pull emergency brake.

I'm glad I had my Workhorse Chassis cracked rotors, failed calipers, and a brake-lever grease zerk added to my 2001 W22 last year. Perhaps my family and I won't wind up in the same situation.

I wonder if this accident will bring in the NTSB to try and figure out why the brakes failed?

That could really turn into something interesting.

Looks like it may have been a RDP. Appears to be a gen engine up front

It was reported tonight that the driver didn't make it. His family, many still in the hospital are in our thoughts tonight.
