  1. The Texas Department of Public Safety said the collision involved for vehicles including one, which was a dumb truck-type vehicle.

    Since when has dictating and hitting “post” become a journalism technique? There are “for” vehicles, “including one” that is a “dumb” truck? While a for (vs. anti) vehicle, a one, and a dumb truck might be interesting to see, you still should have said that “The TxDPS said the collision involved four vehicles, including a dump truck-type.”
