Truck Crash in Edmonton
Anyone see this?? Pretty crazy, someone had their cell phone camera rolling as it went off over pass
drives off over pass
must have been scary to have a semi rolling towards you on a freeway, thank god it was train tracks below and not another roadway
i think the main page has the video, it doesn't load for me

Left hand side of the page where it says: "Catch a glimpse of Global Edmonton's video"

Wow... I wonder if he was related to the motorbike guy who did that on Deerfoot a short while back.

I'd say he probably had a medical emergency and lost consciousness, probably a heart attack or seizure.. 20kms going between the right side and the wrong side of the road, those damn jersey barriers that line the road kept him going for a while

Jesus H!!!... Was he suicidal or just passed out? You can't go 15-20 Km's unconscious on thet stretch of road can you? That video will be seen all over the world.

WOW...I'm just glad no one else got hurt, that was scary. I wonder what went wrong with the driver for that to happen.

Honestly, I am amazed he managed more than 2km without hitting someone. That road is always freaking busy at all times of the day.

Just watching that video a little closer i would suspect suicide. If you watch the diesel smokestack just before he goes over there is a puff of black smoke, to me means a medical emergency wouldnt have the ability to gear up, then drive over the edge. Just my opinion though. And to drive 20 km while having a medical emergency is near impossible.

Woah. Insane video. The explosion and the fire at the end are movie-like.
If indeed it was suicide, endangering the lives of innocent people is NOT cool.
