The crash occurred within thirty seconds of the car stopping. |
I've not seen anything reported that connects the incident with this stretch of the M6 being a smart motorway. Do you have a link to the information?
Could this be a tragic case of lorry driving into a stationary car, which could occur on any high-speed road if the driver of the second vehicle is unable to stop in the distance he/she can see to be clear?
