  • That is horrible, i feel bad for the people that lost loved ones. It's so sad I can't believe it had that many cars and trucks invovled in it.
  • Wow that is terrible. With that many vehicles, it's lucky that no more died. But 10 is really sad, especially for a car accident.
  • Thats terible and it must have been really bad if there was smoke advisory untill monday.
  • This is so sad, i never like to hear about things like this on the news. I know from experience what it's like from the families perspective of the victims that died in the crash. It's a terrible thing that happened to not only the people in the accident on interstate 75 in Florida, but also the families who have to live with the pain of losing a loved one. 

  • I wonder what the semi-trucks were hauling because for something to release that much smoke wasn't carrying normal freight. There must have been something unstable in the crash making it much worse.

  • It is sad to hear of any accidents that take many lives. I hope to never be in a crash like that it would be terrible to tell the families what happened and the impact on the community would also be bad. That was a few semis to many and to many cars. To think the smoke was so heavy it lingered.

  • Dang that is horrible. Every time my mom drives I get really scared that we are going to get into an accident. Thank god that nothing has happened. I feel so bad for the people that were in the car accidents. I mean everything just happens in seconds, and the consequences can last a life time.
