Police are investigating the possibility that a medical issue may have led to the accident."

Note: Confusion, possible memory loss, possible 'medical issue'...

http://www.unionleader.com/article/20141230/NEWS07/141239864

Quote: "It’s still unclear whether the aircraft is in one piece or broken up, said Hernato, a search and rescue official who goes by one name."

Note: If it was destroyed by a mid-air explosion then it will be scattered over a wider area than if it just plunged into the ocean, so that's important information. A medical helicopter was knocked out of the sky by a 'flash of light' in Oklahoma City (Oklahoma), killing 2 people, mentioned in the 2013-03-13 update. That was a small 'flash fire' explosion, but with all the mysterious and gigantic city-shaking explosions being heard and felt around the world this past year, sometimes accompanied by a 'flash of light', it wouldn't be too surprising if we've reached the point where passenger planes are getting blown out of the skies by explosions too. But lots of planes have been coming down smoking or burning too, and fire can easily bring a plane down as well...

Note: And the day prior, a tourist plane burst into flame after landing at an airport in Riverside (California), and a passenger plane was grounded after passengers smelled smoke at Logan Airport in coastal Boston (Massachusetts), both events mentioned in the 2014-12-26 update. So in less than 2 days that's one passenger plane disappearing off radar and (presumably) crashing into the ocean, one tourist plane on fire and one passenger plane smoking. One was over the ocean, one was near the ocean, and one was near a river near the ocean. Those 'Friendly Skies' are looking rather hostile nowadays. Not that ground vehicles or boats are doing any better though!

2014-12-08 - Tractor trailer blows tire and crashes at the Ouachita River Bridge near Malvern (Arkansas):
http://www.arkansas911news.com/semi-crash-shuts-30-2-5-hours-friday-hot-spring-county/

Quote: "According to the driver, he was approaching the Ouachita River Bridge near Malvern in the right lane at about 8:54 p.m. Friday, December 5 when he lost his left drive tire, causing his rig to veer hard to the left into the guardrail and bridge."

2014-12-08 - Driver has 'medical condition', tractor trailer crashes through median, off road, into home, on I-90 near Superior (Montana), 1 killed:
http://www.kbzk.com/news/1-dead-after-semi-crashes-into-mineral-county-trailer-court/

Note: Sounds like he was probably a slumper. This stretch of I-90 runs right along the banks of the Clark Fork River...

2014-12-08 - Tractor trailer veers off road, hits trees, bursts into flame and explodes, in Morton (Missouri), 1 killed:
http://www.wapt.com/news/driver-killed-officer-injured-in-bigrig-explosion/30127952
http://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/watch/morton-big-rig-explosion/vp-981d844d-38ae-404d-ae06-6b557658b911

Quote: "Witnesses said they were behind the driver. They didn’t see the brake lights or anything. He just left the road like he was going to an exit..."

Note: Exactly as if he were unconscious or already dead. Possibly another slumper. You see that a whole lot in head-on crashes nowadays, where the person who veers into oncoming traffic is one of the fatalities or the only fatality - in at least some cases they are being struck dead while driving, and having a corpse at the wheel is what causes the crash. That's most likely to happen in the wee hours and in, near or downwind of low-lying areas...

2014-12-08 - Driver has 'medical problem', tractor trailer veers off road after 6:30 AM and overturns, in Ancaster (Canada), 1 killed:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/news/fatal-tractor-trailer-rollover-closes-section-of-the-linc-1.2864074

Quote: "Hamilton police believe a medical problem could be behind the city's 17th traffic fatality for 2014."

Note: Gonna run out of truck drivers pretty fast at this rate. But we'll be running out of trucks for them to drive too. And people generally are dying off, so there'll be less demand for stuff to be shipped in trucks too. So it all works out!

Quote: "Ben Tidswell, the pilot for KSL Chopper 5, was at Sky Park Airport when he heard a strange noise — 'the sound of things coming to pieces big time' or 'an in-flight breakup.' Moments later, Tidswell said his mechanic pounded on his door and told him he had just witnessed the helicopter fall apart in midair and crash. 'The entire tail rotor and assembly is sitting about 200 yards away from where the rest of the aircraft crashed down into the building. The aircraft itself was smoldering, seemingly on fire in the building, completely inside the building,' he said."

Quote: "'It was 100, 200 feet up in the air. I noticed a lot of smoke, and next thing I know a big explosion,' witness Vartkes Megerdichian told KUTV. 'Lost the back part of the helicopter, turned toward its right, blaze going everywhere, parts flying around.'"

Quote: "This is the fourth such incident in the state since October last year. Earlier in April this year, an AC bus travelling from Karnataka's Davangere region to Bangalore was engulfed in fire, in which three people died, according to earlier IBNLive report. In another incident in November 2013, seven people were charred to death and 40 others were injured as the bus travelling to Mumbai from Bangalore caught fire in Karnataka's Haveri district. Also, in October last year, 45 people lost their lives in a major accident when a Volvo bus heading to Hyderabad from Bangalore was caught up in flames."

Quote: "Breutsch said driver David Shew, 61, of Chambersburg, was pronounced dead. He said an autopsy has been scheduled to determine if Shew was killed in the crash or suffered a medical emergency beforehand. Officials say it’s still unclear why the truck left the interstate, and there were no skid marks on the road."

Note: Pretty wild story here. An MRI machine was running at the time of the accident and a volunteer firefighter broke in to help using a 10-pound metal tool, which was ripped from his grasp and sucked onto the MRI machine by its magnetism. Good thing he didn't have a steel hip replacement or something!
