    Bro? I'm not familiar with that term?

    No I'm not mad it just gets sickening when someone posts something and people pick it apart because of a time or date that isn't correct. What is their point do they think the op is making it up?

    Looks staged to me. Bunch of fakers. We got some real members of the geek squad and truck stop lawyers in here.

    MJ why you mad? Bro.

    I didn't see anything come off the truck. Is it just me or does this video serve as pointless??

    and face it MJ, he's a driver. There is a 88% chance that the story is made up and 5% chance that it wasn't caused by Obama lol

    Ya the sad part is a lot of them truck stop lunch counter experts end up on this website.

    That was in no way directed at the op. He posted an interesting video.

    Was it a daycab?

    That's a pretty common sight on day cabs - improperly/under secured loads. I avoid them like the plague.

    I've also wondered about how critical it is to have the correct time and date on my dash camera?

    Alot of trouble to get it set correctly and thought it would reset when losing power.

    Mine's a day cab and you will not find anything under secured. Our trailers all have their own set of straps in the box while the trucks are loaded down with chains. For example, I have 10 ea 3/8 chains, snap binders and ratchet binders. I have 6 ea 1/2 chains ratchet binders and snap binders. Used all 6 1/2" chains the other day on a 64k piece of equipment because I knew it did not have a parking brake. Old POS that was heading to the scrap yard. So for 64k I had 49,500 worth of wll holding it on the trailer.

    I have see poor securement on sleeper trucks. The truck has nothing to do with it.
