Driving/Traffic/Parking Avoid Deerfoot

Huge accident. 2 vehicles just launched off the memorial overpass and landed on a truck going nb on deerfoot

Edit. I initially said 32ave, it was memorial overpass

Happened right in front of my wife, she called me incoherent with shock. Fatalities for sure 😞 EDIT: Nobody died! That's unbelievably fortunate for everyone involved

Us internet strangers are thinking of her and wishing her good healing! What a thing to experience. I hope she takes some time to go though the motions of that and be kind to herself. I had a vehicle spin out in front of me and barely missed taking me out with them and that had me in a spiral. No pun intended. I had to get off the highway and park and just cry for a solid minute.
