    About 1:10 into the video, you can see skid marks up to the stopped trailer..

    I was suppose to go that way this morning to deliever a truck. I forgot all about this until a coworker said something to me about 10 minutes before I left, stupid me. Anyway I had to take state roads more than I wanted to and just finished a day that was longer than it needed to be. And here I thought all the accident reports on here would not affect me, :biggrin_25517:.

    You should have seen the one I saw the other day. STUPID reporter was calling a straight truck a "big rig" and "an 18 wheeler" and "semi truck".


    From the video it was clear it was a straight truck with only one axle. Only 6 wheels on that rig. I wanted to just scream at the person. Of course they would not have heard it, but still.
