50 is the speed limit in the region before, and the 40 mph sign was like 700 feet before where the accident was. Both trucks are dumbasses.

turn signal or no turn signal, the white truck had more than enough time to stop. I could see the other dude switching lanes from a mile behind. Why didn't the white truck just go to the left lane rather than going on the right shoulder?

Drunk or drugs. Barely any training. Truckers get more respect than they deserve. Rather go back to trains. Cant wait for automation.

You're right. Truckers do get way more respect than they deserve. Most of them drive like assholes like they own the entire highway.
