Not again....

I'm in a ditch..... again..... I ####ed up simple as that. Altho I went up a level, instead of just being stuck I'm blocking 2 lanes of traffic this time....

Think I'm gunna get a preventable out of this one...

 

What happened???

 

#### man, sorry to hear that, not a good way to start off your day.

Hope you are alright and nobody got hurt other then your pride.

 

Ummm how? Don't wanna sound like a jerk but when you say again makes me think you dont learn your lease on easy at all. Watch your mirrors.

 

No injuries but my pride is officially doa.

Cut a turn to wide and steer caught the down slope and pulled me in.

 

First one was route 9 Vermont mountain pass on ice. This one I just done screwed up

 

Mr Grass has a way of snagging mr Rig. I guess you live and learn. Be prepared for some bills tendering to you. I ran off a time or two but application of horse power and very gentle application of steer got me through.

 

At least you didn't flip it over.
This incident: little to no damage, a tow bill. Likely under 10 grand.
Flip it over: bill is way higher. Truck and trailer and cargo now damaged and tow bill much higher.

Learn from it and be extra careful going forward. Crap happens. Just don't let it be an ongoing thing.

 

I bet that was when trucks actually had some horsepower..

 

The one in my avatar did best. I ran her clean off in Missouri by the river and it was a foot plus of mud under that grass. They had paved the concrete road to a sharp edge like a table. She fell off into it and I knew the drives will twist offset inside the axle against each other being so low into the earth on the right and so high on the pavement.

I slammed the power down, and 500 horses instantly kicked in got her out of there before the next hilltop wanted to flip and slam me onto my left side trailer and all. No one was around that early in the rain to see me ruin that poor man's yard but it endeth well. Teach the state to spend some money and build shoulders. But not that one...
