I had a bad day!

That's not good. I feel for you. How much you think that's going to cost you?

 

Oh, Brickman... I am so sorry! I'm just glad no one was injured.

Now I understand why sometimes there are "soft shoulder" signs along the highway. That's just plain nasty stuff.

 

Dang that much just for the tow? Well atleast the ticket you got was only $46. I guess that's one bright spot. Hopefully you won't be down to long. Good luck to you.

 

Ouch. Add about 10K at least for the gang at the body shop. I assume from the pictures that the majority is cosmetic, but that still comes with a hefty price tag. Second picture shows it well, deep ditch and absolutely no shoulder there. Hope the wagon came out okay and doesn;t need any repair. Glad you were empty at the time, or the costs would really add up.

Glad you're okay, trucks can always be replaced, but not drivers.

 

And I thought MY day stunk.

I live off a road that has no shoulder like the one you were on. Once a wheel drops off the pavement it's all over.

I sat several hours in court on a case I handled back in July. On the stand to testify for about 10 minutes. Of course by the time I got out of court the whole day was shot.

Then after I got home I took Missy (My Boston Terrorist) outside so she could do her thing. Heard a noise from the road, looked up just in time to see a small pickup go spinnin across the road thru the ditch and into the woods on the oppisite side of the road. The driver was not injured and not much damage to his little pickup. He said he fell asleep and woke up as he was runin off the road. His wheel dropped off the road and when he tried to correct, he over corrected and away he went.

 

Wow, thanks for the post... as awful as it must have been for you today, it sure is a wake up call for the rest of us.
Sorry about your truck. I hope it all works out OK.

One positive thing I see in your photo... the absence of cars on the trailer...
