driver in critical condition

You can freaking roll standing still should you move or try to brake on a steep enough grade. Over you go. There are some barns Ive backed a 18 wheeler to up it's tractor ramp and against a fence on ice and snow forcing a turn away that includes a incredible risk of flopping over. Something like a 40 degree hillside. I think tractors can take a 60 degree slope. but that's for military spec vehicles.

 

I read the Twitter discussion from the guy that took the picture in post #2. He said the driver lost his brakes coming down the hill, but managed to avoid going into a model home.

I don't know how much credence to give a witness like that. The lack of apparent securement caught my eye.

 

As did the stone enbankment on the far side.

 

Same here.....no signs of broken chains, torn straps or anything and in a residential area.

Lost driver attempting a private delivery from / for a moving co? Maybe bootlegging the jeep for cash? LTL? Certainly not a load of classics......

But really, mind you I'm not a parking lot guy at all....but what is that dang crew cab doing on the upper deck? Every time I see a PPL his big iron is down stairs and or on the tail.......

Dunno wassup here.....too many questions......Co driver have anything to say yet or is he out on the 5th?

 

Bootlegging kind of went out around the time I got involved into trucking. You can bet there were oppertunities for that kind of profiteering. Essentially piracy. If you get caught... you are going away.... lol.
