This is horrible, same thing nearly happened to me last year. Was sitting at a light and all of a sudden heard screaching tires. Turned around and some tools from a landscaping company in an f250 w/ trailer are sniffing my rear tire. Some people need to get their head outta their azz when they are behind the wheel.

"Jakscht doesn't have a criminal record, according to a check of Arizona court records, but a complaint was filed against him on March 15 in Scottsdale City Court for driving with a speed greater than reasonable and prudent, court records show. The complaint said Jakscht was traveling 45 miles per hour in a 45 mph zone but failed to control his speed to avoid an accident.

Court records show Jakscht had other driving violations in recent years. "

He was already warned. I think he should do hard time and lose his driver's license permanently. But I doubt anything will happen to him. If people were given harsher penalties for reckless driving; more of them would drive with better awareness.

I pray for the victims and the families of this needless tragedy.

X2 prayer's to the family. When you drive a truck as I do, check your paper work before you leave. Multitasking is stupid and costs lives.
