    Saw this happen about 500 yards in front of me this morning. No one hurt and from what I could see, no cars even got damaged. Pretty impressive for morning rush hour in Richmond.

    I saw a bulldozer come off a skateboard. Driver never bothered to secure the load. Just drove the dozer on and took off down the road. Funny part was when he went around a turn from Washington Junction onto Route one north. I can still remember now that dozer going tail over tea kettle across the farmers field, rolling off into the trees. It landed upside down. No it wasnt one of those mid size dozers with a 8 foot blade. It was one of those used at trash land fills with a 12 foot plus blade. It took a local contractor (one of the bigger ones) two backhoes to right it and nudge it out of that field.
