    Shouldn't there have been a pilot car in front to stop traffic from blocking up the opposite lane when he was traveling in it to avoid an accident?

    The opening shot looks like the WV Turnpike, he was confident or lucky on that bridge. Seen the aftermath of that situation in Florida on I-75 back in the summer, tube or silo style load just like that hit the bridge.


    Just gotta know where you’re going here in WV like many other places….

    There was a pole car out front, guaranteed. The pole car was on point. If the front car was crappy, you would have seen a 4 trying to squeeze around that section where the wheels were dropping off.

    @Rontonio, what are your thoughts?

    There was a coal bucket flopped over up the road and that’s why there wasn’t traffic when he got hung up in the corner.
