well it is a lorry so its fairly accurate for the sun
well if thats a jack knife i would hate too see what it would look like if it was across all the lanes and central barrier
Thats no a jack knife lorry, its a pen knife lorry… and its open…
Its no a jack-knife, but jack-knife sounds dramatic and is getting branded about willy nilly over the last few weeks, which is why they probably used that word. I’m no Sherlock Holmes but it looks like there is a on-slip there, the angle of the truck indicates maybe he came from the on-slip and skidded into the barrier. Just a guess of course
Typical of the sun you bought, sorry…someone else bought, perhaps its behind that Scarnia someone abandoned on the road?
the pic was probably taken after the driver in the cab got it straight if you look at the pic you can see bits of the truck on the floor by the central reservation
Well if thats a jackknifed lorry then well…enough said haha

Driver right a jackknife? I was always told thats impossible , maybe the bits on the floor are the bits that came off when he hit the wires.
~Also its quite funny that ahead of the TOTAL carriageway block the signs are warning traffic to keep to a certain speed just in case they pass the lorry lol.
This is a jacknife, for those who don’t know!
This is a fatal by all accounts, so don’t slate me for posting it.
Condolences to those involved.
At least they called it a lorry and not a THUNDERING JUGGERNAUT.
Is there a side road to the left where the truck has emerged from but failed to stop due to slippy surface ?

That’s what it think ROG, look at the main carriageway no rubber, no black tyre marks. It must have came from that slip road.

i know what has happened there…
the jack knifed lorry is actually around the corner shown in the picture, and the lorry in the picture is blocking the road for safety reasons so that the idiots in the cars don’t go round there too fast and hit it
not a great picture but I took this on the M4 with the iphone, (mounted on the dash)
was Tuesday I think
smarts casino royal was in a bad state not far down the road from that the driver was alive but dont know what he is like

Aye standing there saying ‘’ we cant do anything elf & safety governor’’
To be fair, the HATO had to drive against the traffic flow in very dangerous conditions and close of the two lanes , visibility was bad and the third lane was very icy and snowy around the scene , he was also dealinf with another driver out of shot as well . hard job it seems to me, and dangerous,
