My brother is a fire fighter. His department once had a guy in a pickup hit the back of a full sized fire truck in the middle of the road in the daytime with all lights going, with multiple other emergency vehicles on the scene also with lights running and lots of people walking around with full reflective gear. This was on an expressway. There was over a mile of clear visibility. The driver never even touched the brakes. He hit the many-ton fire truck hard enough to push it forward about 8 feet and required months in the shop to repair. They scooped the driver up with shovels.
There will always be a driver that can "not see" absolutely anything. Or in this case, is just zoned out, or was on a phone or messing with his radio or something.
