This is what I saw during my commute to work this morning around 10am. Massive 18-wheeler flipped on the 76 to 202 ramp at King of Prussia. Luckily he didn't land on anyone.

I'm pretty sure it will be there for a while so take back roads if possible. It took me like 20 min to get by.
kinda looks like he was in the right lane and landed in the left. look at the tire marks from his left front tire. pretty nuts.

That's not a corpse, that's a tow truck driver looking at getting some airbags under the truck to lift it back up.
Edit: He's actually looking at the guy behind the tires arse.
EDIT: BUMP FOR MY 2000th post!

I didn't see this happen. And as for the corpse, I guess nobody noticed it yet. (I'm sure its just a mechanic/tow truck driver looking at something)
I didn't see this happen in person. Most likely took the turn too fast/overdrifted (It's a sharp turn) and it was windy this morning so who knows.

The trucker took the turn too fast is what caused it. THey took the driver to the hospital ( obviously) for observation. Thats all i know as I heard it come in on the scanner and Thats NOT the department my parents run with ( occasionally I run too). was this pic taken before any EMS personnel Arrived ( ie Cops, Ambulance, firetruck, etc. ).
The Overnight accident on 202.. was fatal.. Link here :

I'm sure it had to happen at least an hour before I got to it. There was cops and a tow truck was already there. I didn't see an ambulance so they had probably taken the driver to the hospital already.
I drove past it this morning and except for the skid marks it was like nothing happened.

okies, then yeah that was probably just the tow driver looking for a place to hook to to upright the thing.
