I've got pics of it on my cellphone, it happened literally minutes before I got to that point.
Pretty crazy and amazing that no one was seriously injured!

I'm more amazed that some "CP24 viewer" had a dashboard camera on at this exact moment..

As Milton is part of the GTA, why there are not Traffic cameras, at Milton and the 401??.James snow, HWY 25.It is not only the EDGE - hardly nobody give a sh...about the traffic in the WEST side of Toronto.

I drove past there about 5 minutes before it happened. The road wasn't slippery AT ALL.
I don't know how these truck drivers get their licenses but it seems like an accident involving a truck is an almost daily occurrence on either the 401 or one of the on/off ramps.


My dad was a truck driver for most of my life, and he used to say that truck drivers were the safest drivers on the road ... about 15 years ago he started to see that quality of truck drivers decline until about 5 years ago he was more afraid of truck drivers then anything else on the road.

I thought that too. Clearly cab-over tractors are superior!

Careful about recording your speed... there have already be numerous cases where the cops have tracked down excessive speeders via the online videos.

To be honest, I am always a bit afraid when I drive. These type of videos hardly allay those fears :)
