It is now known that the driver of the refrigerated van was carrying the drug ice in the prime mover!!!! Should we have road blocks on all transport drivers for mandatory drug tests

Fled the scene That’s how you’re framing it? A guy sees 4 people get destroyed by a truck and then reacts. News sucks today! The guy was in shock and you guys are making things worse!

Really, some people are really the worse specimen on the planet. Innocent driver or not innocent driver, the Porchedriver should have at heast help the injured. Instead he chose to flee after having the time to take some photo.

This is ..tragic. FOUR lives in the blink of an eye. We should rethink these high speed chases.

So fucking what ?

I feel like there's a lot missing from this story.

Porsche driver could help in Victoria Police deathsA speeding Porsche driver who fled after four police officers were killed by a truck on Melbourne's Eastern Freeway has been urged to contact police investigating the incident. 9News He did a runner and he saved his life. This story is crazy! Don't pull over on the freeway. Ever. If the cops light you up, continue to the next exit. Also, don't obey the reduced speed limits if the majority of the traffic is maintaining high speed. What causes the big one on the freeway is always speed differential How did the truck driver not see them? RIP officers and sending love to all the families and police force. 😰❤️

God bless each of these four police officers. Fly high 💕🙏
