Do not brake check a big rig...

You think he survived?

Not even for a minute.

Did that used to be a pickup truck?

The wheels look like an SS Trailblazer.

Looks like a smaller pickup. It had four doors but I don't see any shell as in a cap or SUV-style body shape. Looks more like the bed folded up and over a cab to me.

Yes, this can happen but it isn't very likely. More often, the semi rolls right over the vehicle or it bounces off and is thrown clear like a little toy.

Interesting picture though. Did it come with a backstory?

No, just the picture. Six lug wheels, so some kind of truck/SUV. I suspect there was another rig in front that's been moved.

I've tried to copy and paste at least some of this article, but there's a script running on the site which freezes my computer. This is the best I can do at the moment.

Looks like it says "Silverado" on the lower part of the driver's door.

Two people were killed in a tragic chain reaction pileup involving four tractor trailers and a pickup truck.

The incident occurred around 6 p.m. on the eastbound lanes of I-20 in Carroll County, Georgia.

WSB-TV reported that a semi truck was driving near Georgia 113 when it rear-ended a second semi truck.
The force of the collision launched the second truck into a pickup, completely crushing it.

The second truck continued into a third tractor trailer, which then hit a fourth.

The driver and passenger of the pickup truck were killed instantly. According to police, the deceased victims were identified at 53-year-old Larry Donnell Adams of Brenton, Louisiana; and 51-year-old Peggy O’ Neal of Bossier City, Louisiana.

The first semi truck driver was airlifted to a hospital with unknown injuries. No other injuries were reported.

Traffic delays were extensive as all eastbound lanes of Interstate 20 were shut down for over 5 hours. Motorists traveling eastbound on the highway were either diverted at Highway 27 or advised to seek alternate routes.

Charges are pending while the incident remains under investigation.

From here. Be warned there's something wonky there. Maybe to do with Flash. I turned off Flash in Firefox and the site was ok.

Aye, SILVERado matey.

B-61 Mack, and after all that, another red light...

That's rowing yer own right there.
