    Plus the 38,000 lb Aluminum ingot came through the sleeper. Somehow this driver survived.

    wow! another 5 or 10 mph faster and that 38,000 pounds of Aluminum would've been thru his windshield. this is why I always add 2 or 3 extra straps or chains on my loads, its worth the time for me to do it when i see this .I'm glad he's ok.
