It was a classic accordion. The cars in front had started moving already.

Completely her fault for going from the fastest lane through 2 other lanes to get to the exit lane without a clear view to make sure it was not congested. Amazing she survived.

No sympathy from me either - I see this happening everyday and once accomplished safely they think how fool others are.

I can't sympathize either.... Flying from the fast lane to the off ramp, shooting between 2 trucks... I see this happen all the time here in So Cal....

It is a wonder she wasn't killed.... And what the hell does releasing the video before her trial have to do with anything... Between witness statements and most probably traffic cams she wasn't going to get out of this....

Not to mentioned the insurance companies from the trucks will be using the video to go after her for damages....
