Tractor-Trailer Driver Kills Five in North Carolina (NC) | Shapiro, Washburn & Sharp

In his latest post to our firm’s Virginia Trucking Accident Attorney Blog, my colleague Rick Shapiro reports that five people lost their lives and 10 others went to the hospital with injuries when the driver of a tractor-trailer plowed his big rig into the victims’ stopped cars on I-26 near Fletcher, North Carolina (NC). Considering that the fatal crash occurred around 11 pm, Rick wonders if trucker fatigue or limited visibility may have played a role in the tragedy.
