22-vehicle pileup
A multi-car pileup doesn't happen every day, but it happened last night in Riverside:
At least 15 people were injured in a 22-vehicle pileup on Interstate 215, triggered when a big rig truck failed to brake for stopped traffic, plowing into cars and setting off a chain-reaction crash, the California Highway Patrol announced today. All lanes of the northbound Moreno Valley (215) Freeway were reopened around 1 a.m. today, about three hours after last night’s accident, the CHP said. According to CHP Officer George Foard, a semi truck hauling 45,000 pounds of watermelons was heading north on I-215, approaching El Cerrito Road, around 10 p.m. when traffic ahead of him stopped for a minor traffic collision.

Of these 22-vehicles in the pile-up, how many of them were without drivers when the CHP arrived? And I don't mean as in When the Rapture Comes.
South of the border, down Mexico way.
