I thought I would throw this out there and make sure you guys are all aware of what happened in Portland Oregon.
There was a roll over on the 5 just south of the border with WA this week. Now today I just saw on the news ANOTHER semi (tanker) roll over in Industrial area of Portland.
Last time we had two accidents like this in a week, all dot and sate police ran a blitz inspection all trucks they could get hands on. I don't know if you remember a propane tanker go BOOM in Tacoma about 4 years ago...Well I was at a Propane company as a driver and pulling into the yeard we had a DOT officer there on SITE doing inspections and questioning drivers on hazmat rules and regs. One guy failed and they had to retrain him before he could drive again. True this is hazmat and those are harder rules but I am sure something will come of these 2 wrecks this week.
DRIVERS BEWARE in THE NW.
