The 25-ton truck driver told police that the victim had stopped him to complain of damages due to “an object that fell from the 25-ton truck.” They were checking the side of the trailer when the other cargo truck caused the accident, according to reports.
Authorities said they suspect the driver may have fallen asleep at the wheel at the time of accident.
