Welcome

 

It's pretty obvious to me the bull hauler is to blame, for obvious reasons, obviously.

 

Probably the same way someone jackknifes on a nice sunny summer day.

 

that is the way I read it, it could be against a grey sky the bull hauler didn’t see the profile of the blade or more likely based on experience he tried to drive under it but didn’t fit.

clearly he hit the blade which rolled the tractor and dumped the blade on the Pilot car.

people lose their mind around blades and don’t realizes how long it takes to turn.

 

Last one of the year here. Started the year off with a tarp, why not end it with one?

 

I agree, it's a good way to do it. I have one more to go, my 21 y.o. daughter. It's a shame that FMCSA is going to make that nearly impossible for us with their new trainer requirements.

Haha... my boy was probably like yours. Doing chores with vehicles, backing up trucks into the shop.. all around driving without driving. He hit the road with zero issues. But, yeah, it'd take a load bar for me to win a fight against him.

 

What are these new training requirements? I haven't heard anything about that. I got my cdl the same as your boy, started driving our farm truck when I was 17. Passed my cdl test the day I turned 18, almost with flying colors. Way better than some cdl school they push drivers through

 

The Ford that’s burning at the tip...is that the tillerman? They must be somewhere in Colorado. That’s the first place I can think of where the steer does not count as an escort thus would not be flagged and bannered. Blade tip was flagged and there would have been a rear escort fully flagged and lit up. Cattle truck should have been able to see them if he were paying attention. Plus, it’s a slow steering process so it’s not like they hurried to turn in front of traffic.

 

It happened right in front of the Sundance, WY POE.

 

the empty one just cuz i thought background was pretty
