Just how do people manage to be so stupid as to go crashing into stationary vehicles. It happens far too frequently. There was a case in the UK a few weeks ago,filmed from the lorry drivers dash camera. He travelled at high speed for several seconds paying no attention to his job at all. He was tinkering with something at his left side,I forget the exact details.
