A mechanical failure that occurred on the freeway ramp caused the truck driver to pull over. The elderly driver may not have been looking to the right when he rear-ended the truck, or he may have had some sort of medical emergency, as it appears he made no attempt to stop prior to the crash. The truck driver was unharmed in the fatal wreck. Freeway crashes are often killers due high speeds and heavy traffic. Rear end collisions can cause serious injury and death, especially when impact is with a larger vehicle and at high speed.
