    Shows up for me.

    Hard to see, but I'm guessing those are those pretty finished beams that they insist on loading them with gaps in between the beams so as to no scratch them up, and everyone insists are just fine that way.

    Loading them properly and throwing some gut straps would have fixed that problem.

    This caught my eye this afternoon on my way to the ta in harborcreek, pa. Getting off the ramp I saw a police car on the on ramp. The next thing I saw was something large in the lane of the on ramp and the police officer hitting it with his toe. Turns out it was a log about 6/8 ft in length about 1 1/2ft in diameter that fell off of the log truck that was backing down the shoulder to get it back onto the truck.

    Saw a VAN driver lose part of his load Wednesday on I70 WB between Brazil & Terre Haute. Carrying a load of junk tires and either forgot to close a door or didn't exactly get it latched right. Truck about 1/2 mile ahead of me swerves onto the shoulder, trailer ran over a tire, and then he hits the left lane and guns it. Next thing I see is the truck that was right in front of him hit the shoulder and stop...with a trailer door open and more tires leaning out. Oops.

    Kinda wish I had a dash cam. Haven't replaced mine since I had my 2nd one crap out on me. I need to...

    He was probably too stupid to look UP to see if the top was secured.
