RCMP say yesterday’s accident on Highway 2 near Morell Siding, N.B., involved three tractor trailers and a pickup truck.
Investigators say it appears one rig went out of control and jack-knifed, causing the pickup truck travelling behind it to be hit from behind by a second tractor-trailer, while a third tractor-trailer collided with the other three vehicles.
