ATLANTA (TNND) — Eight people, including five children, were killed in a fiery multi-car crash involving a semi-trailer along a Georgia highway, according to authorities.

The Georgia Department of Public Safety on Tuesday said 33-year-old Kane Aaron Hammock was driving the trailer.

Hammock was arrested on multiple charges, including the following:
  • Eight counts of second-degree vehicular homicide
  • One count of second-degree feticide by vehicle
  • One count of following too closely
  • One count of no registration
  • One count of driver to exercise due care
The investigation revealed that a semi-trailer was following too closely and struck the rear of a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan," the agency said in a news release. "This caused a chain reaction involving the van and four additional vehicles. After impact, the Dodge van became engulfed in flames along with the tractor-trailer.



JEFFERSON, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - The driver in a deadly crash that claimed the lives of eight people on I-85 was released on bond, according to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office.

Hammock is facing a slew of charges in connection to the Monday crash. Those charges include eight counts of second-degree vehicular homicide, second-degree vehicular feticide, following too closely, distracted driving and operating a vehicle without a current plate.

I hate driving near trucks
ive almost been killed multiple times by trucks. usually while im in the middle lane, a truck is going too fast in the left, and a truck is merging right from the entrance ramp. they sandwich you in. truck on the right speeds up. you can either speed up and pass them, slow down and let them go, or die when one of them changes lanes without a signal.

truck driving is one of the few jobs i think AI could potentially do... not anytime soon of course. anyone can be a trucker. its a popular later-in-life career option for a reason. i dunno if the tests arent that hard, or if they dont give af about who they hire, or if theyre pushing these guys minute-to-minute and mile-to-mile to get there as fast as possible. probably all three if i had to guess.

ever since i saw that video of the brick coming through the window and killing the guys wife in the passengers seat ive been nervous as hell around big trucks.

An entire family. I'm hoping they died on impact due to blunt force trauma. Anyone of any age being burned to death is bad, but the thought of children aged 16, 14, 11 & 4 & 3 leaving this life that way? Nah, man. :mjcry:

Guy is likely going to kill himself before any trial.
