Had a really good jackknife accident in a pretty nasty curve in downtown Grand Rapids a couple of days ago. Traffic cameras caught rush hour traffic in heavy rain then this blue tractor with a silver trailer comes screaming into the picture, going WAY too fast....only the cab was pointed to the right 90 degrees from the trailer which was pointed straight ahead. Needless to say, the cab hit the outside guard rail mashing it up real good. The trailer blocked all four lanes of the road when it stopped. Fortunately, the 4-wheelers were going slow enough to stop in time.
No word on injuries to the driver and passenger.

Well been a flatbedder for almost 2 weeks.... really enjoying it so far. Picked up a load of slinkies (wire coils) n took them to Pharr Texas. Got industrial a/c units right now. Dropping them off tommorow. We chained the units. Not hard to chain these ones. See what we get next...

Finally broke out the big blue tarps today, in the wind. They werent that bad, but still a pain. Havent quite yet figured out why WE have to tarp something they unload n put on the ground, uncovered... Makes no sense to me but hey, an extra 50 bucks to me. Hoping to be back in SPRINGMO next week to finish my classes so I can get my own truckGSWx Thanks this. -
