    It's the drivers fault, hopefully the noose is snug.

    I've ran heavy and still do on 5 axles in a tractor trailer...

    I used to run an oilfield hotshot and refused to load more than 10 tons because they just don't stop, if your dumb enough to put almost 20 tons on the deck....I won't even slow down to see if their okay when they smash it up.

    Oh.... He meant on the cars. :oops:

    I couldn't watch the video this morning because I was at work and I'm too cheap to use my data.

    What do you expect? His chains are stretched so far forward on that front coil he obviously wasn't trained very well.
