    I'm over in Tallahassee and was talking to some drivers. Accident was a chip hauler vs a van. Chip hauler was flying down the hill and ran into a dry van. When I say ran in I mean he was half way in the dry van.

    A whole lot of not paying attention going on out there. And let's be honest ... you can almost bet there was a smartphone or other high-tech device usage involved by the driver who crashed.
