Holy smokes, can’t believe no fatalities. Looks like he swerved left and the front passenger area took the impact, and nobody was sitting there!

I pulled my camper right through there about 2:30 pm Wednesday!!!

LOTS of 'zippers' there. Construction narrows down to one lane, and they 'zip' around you because you're too slow. But I did see one camper (not fifth wheel) go by me about 80 and have to slam on the brakes..........

Not sure it THIS was the cause.. But you would be amazed how many people over drive the vehicle in front of them (usually into a semi) and slam right into the rear ICC cars on the semis and lights out... Literally a few a month around here.

WOW - My DW and just went through that spot on Saturday - scrolling warning signs at least 2 miles before construction area advising of possible stopped traffic - took a good 12 minutes to get through it which really isn't too bad for a bottleneck on a major highway.
