Headed to Orlando airport from Port Canaveral on 528. 2 18 wheelers crashed right in front of us, one exploded. There is a picture out there of the scene with a black van to the left. We were behind that van. He was engulfed in the smoke. Lucky our driver did not hit him. Took 2 hours for us to get redirected and another hour to get to airport.  Missed flight, could not get rebooked until 845. Delta stinks. Ended up renting a car. Got home a little before 7pm

what model of EV sparked up on ya?

They say Ken has done more for the black community than Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr., and Sam Bam Cunningham combined.

That's crazy!  I've made that drive many times.  Curious about your timeline...and genuinely asking because I thought I was the only one that did crazy shit like renting a car and driving.   Did you drive to Atlanta from Orlando?   I came really close to renting a car and driving from Chicago a couple of weeks ago.

Sorry to hear about the trucks wrecking and hope the drivers some how got out. Glad you are ok..

Delta had us on at 845 pm which would have meant getting home at 1130/midnight. No way were
We staying at the airport all day. Got a rental and made it home just before 7pm. No traffic helped.

Damn. Had a Russian Uber driver take us to LAX after the Rose Bowl. He was driving an Audi and I felt like I was in a James Bond car chase. Ruskie gave no shits about the LA traffic. He cut off other drivers. drove in the emergency lane, ran red lights, did it all. Thought I was on a ride at Universal. Joker was missing finger pieces on each hand. Daughter about had 2 panic attacks. Quickest I have ever been driven ti a major air port.
