why does anyone whose achieved professional driver status, decide to ignore the "closed road" and chain across a road, in a snowstorm, resulting in getting stuck on a holiday and requiring the police to rescue him? Can't they read maps? See the obvious danger signs?
I live on a fairly narrow rural road, and we often get over-sized trailer trucks at odd times of day and night, which often cannot make all the curves without running over a neighbor's lawn and stone walls. Vermont is notable for having very few north-south routes, and our road is one of the few in the area that connects two of them. The common explanation is that truckers are using GPS or other computerized mapping programs, which make little distinction and are sometimes just plain wrong.
