Oh goodness, Kathy. Was the truck the vehicle that crossed the center line—from your vantage point?

I was coming down the hill the moment this happened. I didn't witness the impact but when I rolled up it was apparent it had just happened. Smoke from the airbags was still coming out of the cars and nobody was helping any of the occupants so I jumped out of my car. I was doing what I could until the first officer arrived on scene about 45-60 seconds after I got there. It was a horrific crash.
