Alabama tragedy will shine light on non-English speaking CDL drivers
On May 6, at approximately 11:51 a.m., a loaded semi struck four vehicles from behind that were stopped for a red light in the southbound lane of Highway 43 at the intersection of South Industrial Park Drive in Thomasville, Alabama. “Struck” doesn’t accurately describe what happened there. The rig obliterated those cars at-speed, killing two people instantly and injuring four more. There’s no sign that the semi driver ever checked up.
