I was just taking my daughter to school.
00:02
There's a tractor trailer that blocked the traffic coming off I-77 at Carowinds.
00:08
And it must have broken down right after he started to go and blocked like all four lanes of traffic.
00:16
Ooh,
00:19
probably a transmission or tire or something, because he sure ain't moving.
00:24
That's something like a moving problem.
00:29
I'm thinking if it was a tire, he could like at least, unless the tire came off and he's sitting on the frame, but it looked like everything was fine.
00:37
So I'd say either transmission or just the motor quit.
00:40
But they had a wrecker there, but he was just sitting there.
00:43
He wasn't hooked up to it.
00:44
You'd think they'd go ahead and drag the thing out of the way, but nope.
