It is a series of accidents. As an ex-state trooper, I have handled many multi-vehicle accidents and where the layman sees "an accident," I might actually have six or even nine. The thing that defines where one accident stops and another starts is whether or not the vehicles came to rest before being struck again. One vehicle might be involved in two, three, or more accidents during the same event.<BR/><BR/>I investigated "an accident" once on the freeway system and ended up submitting, as I recall, 32 separate accident reports. Several of the vehicles were involved in several accidents. It's complicated, but what I am saying is that I doubt the number you are looking for can be found.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-90778278365956561482008-03-12T18:31:00.000-05:002008-03-12T18:31:00.000-05:00I recall a fog-induced collision on the Autobahn, ...I recall a fog-induced collision on the Autobahn, near Frankfurt, West Germany, in the mid-70's. Seems to me there were 200+ vehicles involved. And there were others almost as large. Not sure how you'd research it, though. Maybe contact the Polizei?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-24356806455102532072008-03-12T10:00:00.000-05:002008-03-12T10:00:00.000-05:00I just returned from there and can say they are so...I just returned from there and can say they are some of the worst drivers on the plant. No seat belts, no turn signals and a strong belief that it must be Gods will if they crash. Much worst than Poland or Mexico City.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
