"3 Dump Truck Drivers Injured"

KSAT reports on an odd chain of events:

Police said a dump truck belonging to Williams Brothers Construction pulled over to the shoulder of the eastbound lanes of Highway 151 near Potranco road after it had stalled.

A second dump truck driver pulled over to check out what was wrong and was standing outside the stalled-out truck when a third dump truck crashed into the stalled vehicle, police said.

...

The impact sent the second driver onto the grassy shoulder, police said. The driver of the third truck had to be cut out of the wreckage. The victims were transported to Wilford Hall Medical Center.

Watch out for those dump trucks.

Yea, those boys really slowed my drive to work. I even took pictures of all the news crews and the big wreck as I inched by the scene, but hadn't posted them.

Thankfully, there were no houses nearby.

Yeah, we haven't had a house smash in a while! Maybe the houses are behaving.
