    That thing is almost certainly empty and thus weighs very little. Either way I'm more impressed by the fact that he got somebody to let him drive a tank truck in the first place.

    I saw this video a while back my first thougt was Hollywood but after watching it appears to be somewhere in the Middle East.And the nut behind him filming and laughing got awful close a couple of times. Both were nuts.

    We had a common carrier just out of town but still in the county drop with no vapor. This guy walks up to him and asks "are you required to use vapor recovery"? The driver goes off on him and tells him to mind his own business. The guy says it is my business and shows him his credentials and he also tells him not to drop another drop of product until your company contacts me. It wasn't any of our drivers and we all laughed pretty hard.

    The same company had a contamination where they had a trailer at the yard half full of just ethanol. Some driver didn't check and hooked it up and loaded the trailer with diesel. Here's a good question for all of you guys, What do you do with that contamated trailer? BTW that company lost the contract to pull for us any more.

    A better question is how do you take off with a truck that is partially loaded and not realize it? Even 1100 gallons you can feel it.

    Around here it gets hauled & sold to a small refinery that only deals in transmix/contamination, they re refine it into ulsd.All the rack transmix also goes to this facility

    Take your time, Check everything twice.. If you are hauling 1 product such as heating oil or Diesel you really can't get any easier.. Follow all the rules at the terminals, Some are more strict than others.
