In the pre-dawn quiet of a Maryland Monday, a dump truck driver named Lazaro Miranda, 47, lost his life when his vehicle struck a stationary tractor-trailer on Interstate 95 near Elkridge — one of those ordinary commutes that becomes, without warning, a final journey. Three others were injured, the highway fell silent under investigation, and the corridor between Baltimore and Washington paused to reckon with the fragility woven into every morning departure.
