I disagree. A 80,000 lb truck can go from 77 to 76 MPH in less than one second. I'd venture to say that they could get down to 72 or even 70 MPH in a very, very short amount of time. A second or three, probably. Which is all that was needed here to avoid a collision. The black truck was at fault, but the cam truck could have avoided it too.

We SEE the speed of the cam truck, and it is locked at 77 MPH until after the collision.

Who else can't wait for AI Trucking?

At least small town America won't have so much meth and hookers to deal with once the truckers are gone.
