    I chalk it up to forgetfulness. I was a car hauler in a PTO-equipped truck until recently (new job) and there was one time I had completely forgotten that my rear ramp was still extended. Fortunately I did not leave a trail of destruction in my wake and a motorist following me alerted me to my boneheaded mistake. I guess I could see how someone might forget he had his PTO engaged and just take off with his dump bed (or, in this case, his boom) still raised, especially if he was in a hurry or really busy. Not justifying it, still no excuse - but I can see how it may have happened.
