I still haven't seen the description of the start-to-finish for this event. I'm curious because so far the scenarios for a collision that occurs in a merging incident don't normally result in such devastation.
Did road rage play a part in this one? If the merging vehicle came onto the traffic lane AHEAD of the #2 vehicle, did the #2 hit the merger in the rear bumper? AND, THAT is what caused both lose control? It seems to me that if I was driving the #2, I would've touched the brakes enough to avoid contact.
It has been pointed out that this was NOT a merge, but a direct pull out from a side road into the pat of the truck. Either didn't see or didn't care!!
This is the reason I drive with lights on 24/7/366.
