Always get out and look

Looks like one of those house moving trailers. Maybe he was supposed to be there and well the road wasn’t made for that truck.

 

These days, they are more in tune with 100 years from now. Ive been doing highway and turn pike improvents now for past 2 years. For every stretch of road, we are installing geo fabric on top of subsoil, then 9 inches of base stone, then paving with 2-3" of blacktop on top of that. AND than on top of that black top laying 12 inches of concrete. Talk about overkill! But #### these roads arent gonna get ruined in our lifetime or your kids

 

If I am allowed to drown in my coffee pot and come up snarky for a minute, I point to Germany and other lands that paved highways 4 feet thick (Slight stretch of concept) and those #### things are still with us today and in high speed when possible to boot.

Our infrastructure rusted and crumbled all my life east of the Mississippi. Not so much in the west because there isnt much to rust and crumble.

Our US 67 was built about 62 they are getting ready to diamond grind bad plates (Which is all of them) for 20 miles plus plastic layer 6 bad bridges. In the mean time we take cars to the shop replacing crumbling front ends battered beyond reason as we are going to do AGAIN this month. This time on credit card. Having been backed into a corner on everything else. Its supposed to be up to I-57 interstate code and beautiful in a couple of years but I don't see it. Our state highways drag their feet so much. drag drag drag. Such typical. If there is anything to be happy about is about 10 plates I poured as a mixer man on that road is holding up ok.

It's like trying to get alms from a tightwad Lordship these days. Its just not possible.

 

Even in my rookiest of rookie days, I never pulled anything close to this crap. This driver deserves to be pulled out and beaten up.

 

Like, get out and check my clearance Clarence.

 

I'm surprised that it not in flames. Last time I saw a truck and trailer in this predicament it was a smoltering piece of melted aluminum.

Who's responsible since this is in a apartment complex? Let's say the pole caused damage to a nearby car or building. The utility company for not having the wires up to minimum clearance height or the driver?

 

You hit it it’s your fault.

 

you sure about that?Site your source. Even drive ways have to have that minimum height. If the wires are not in code, a tall front load garbage truck could possibly hit them. That myfriend puts the fault on the installer. Unless there is a weight restrictin sign or no trucks sign, a citation may follow, butfor low hanging lines, that falls on whatever company they belong too.
