the report I read said it was a homeless person who had the smoky fire .

the report I saw was wrong. just watched an interview with a cop on global news.it was fishermen with a big bonfire. if they are identified they had better have good liability policies

Heard on the radio people were following too close for the conditions and that is what caused the accident. The smoke caused someone to slow and brake lightly and then the pileup happened.

No matter if there was some smoke or not, to have 17 cars pile up means people were following to close for the conditions. It was a fisherman, homeless person it doesn't really matter. And it would have to be a tonne of smoke to smoke out the whole road in general.

it is normal for everyone in heavy traffic, on that road to be following too close considering they are doing 110 kmh or more. when someone freaks out for no reason and slams on the brakes or even slows down all hell breaks loose. and some lawyer , if the firestrters are known, will sue them for sure . believe me I know. I have been in the car accident business for over 40 years !

i dont get why their saying it was fisherman that had a bonfire going, could of been anyone because the persons who had the fire fled the area.

depends on what it was that was burning, pallets make a nice fire with minimal smoke but throw a few tires on there and it'll smoke lots and it's very dark black smoke.

You are allowed to have fires now aren't you ,or is this considered in town ?

it was some copper theives that were burning off the insulation on wires, not fisherman.

the firepit was tiny, burning wire like Zap says. I heard some genius came to a dead stop on the freeway, that being about the stupidest thing to do. More than 1 idiot is to blame im sure but not a fisherman.
