The report I read was it was a single vehicle accident on I-65 Northbound close to exit 136. The occupants were slightly injured, which is great news. When you have 3-4 tons behind you any slight mistake can be disaster. I always have a tighter grip on the steering wheel when I'm towing. I hope they weren't on a cell phone as a distraction. I quit a job because the manager wanted me to make phone calls when driving. I told him we have a problem because I will not talk on the phone unless I'm stopped.

With minor work and a bit of time spent with a buffer, both vehicles will be good to go.

It looks like a busted wdh bar on top of the hitch near the propane tank. I'm glad no serious injuries. It looks to be a wildwood, I wonder if it is a forum member?

I guess the wrinkles should iron out. I imagine the occupants have a lot of glass imbedded in them and from the way it looks they are lucky to still have their heads.

Now that is a nightmare, was there a hill or anything when you passed or just flat ground. Looks like a new trailer. Sure hope them folks are okay.
