    No this is why i find this entire thread so entertaining. I got there after it happend hence me being pissed about being suck in bumper to bumber traffic for an hour for nothing.

    All the details are from the CB (so most is probably wrong) except for the parts you can clearly see in the pics :wheels off Van, other wheel was about a halfmile east in the middle of the Interstate, and swift had a SUV up his butt.


    Also on a note for those of you dukeing it out about swiftys (this was a LOCAL swift driver so i'm guessing this guys isnt a new driver)

    Heh...if there's a Swift anywhere within two miles of any traffic problem, it's gotta be his or her fault.



    Just ask our resident experts.

    Ooohh...like that WnS I saw on a hook last month with the front end mashed in and the right side scraped from front bumper of tractor to DOT bumper of trailer.

    BTW: no other vehicles involved in that one. He ran off the side of the road and took out an oak tree.

    Yeah Injun, he was probably distracted. You know, talking to a SWIFT driver on his CB!:biggrin_2559:

    (I'm sorry Injun, I just can't help myself sometimes. . .):biggrin_25513:
