in regards to the accident on SR6, I realize the person was not paying attention and was cited, but if the large traffic control truck with apparent dumb asses operating it would of never attempted to turn the truck around in the middle of the highway, they would of not got stuck and blocked the roadway and the accident would of probably never happened. There should be some fault with the driver of the truck for causing the accident, it was traffic control personal for the chamber way bridge project.
