This is going to ruin the day for many of us...

A witness said buddy was doing like 100 mph when he passed him headed for the booth. If they say the big T word we are all in for a pile of poop none of us need. Did the 9-11 at the bridge deal do not need it again. Hoping just an accident where maybe buddies foot stuck or medical but it sure does not sound like it.

Evidently explosives were found in the car. Both occupants deceased. WTF???

Oh somebody is upset about something for sure. Pretty sure there will be a long few days before they release the names of the occupants.

Trucking news based on NBC reports saying an opposite.. Kind of cloudy, eh...WTF, indeed !!!

You are absolutely right. Different news reports are citing different facts. Still, a car approaches the International border at an extreme rate of speed, becomes airborne and explodes in a ball of fire, all on the day before the busy US Thanksgiving holiday……indeed…..WTF????

The timing is sketchy, though accidents do happen.
Looking at some new footage, does not seem to be a lot of like, excessive damage? Doesn't look like a bomb went off, just a car with a ruptured fuel tank.

What a weird story this turned out to be. Fortunately no connection to terrorism and only 1 bridge remaining closed for repairs. Just read on CNN that the car involved was a Bentley. The deceased couple had plans to attend a KISS concert at one of the Canadian casinos but it was cancelled. Crazy stuff!!

Glad this was not anything nefarious. Wouldn't be surprising if it was though, what with all going on in the middle east etc.
