I have few good things to say about truck drivers.

I suppose it is possible the truck suffered brake failure, but it is more likely the driver was doing something besides watching the road ahead. Things like, reading a newspaper, texting, playing a game, speaking on the phone, watching TV. These are just a few of the distractions I see regularly while driving and they are not limited to truck drivers.

It's easy to go blaming truck drivers, but I've seen a plethora of passive-aggressive drivers of cars and motorcycles on highways in Japan. Everyone is always in a much bigger hurry than they need be.
