    Holy smokes that could've been one of those tiny electric cars I see down the freeway under there...poor judgement on the driver's part on that u turn plus I think he had already dropped the load, he was leaving correct? Sleep deprived? They run on elogs he is not a super trucker for some reason the guy couldn't sleep and can u guys imagine the noise of dragging that thing? Knight is already in the burner I imagine the heat will be turned up...but it is funny as hell!

    Yeah those ##### Hyper-milers in the N/W.....Running I-5 at 40 mph.....They deserve to get pounded into the pavement as far as I'm concerned....

    Smart Cars belong on the golf course and the residential streets...not the interstates....

    Those things scare the crap outta me. You would never get me in one running any kind of interstate. And those that are, are definitely not the brightest crayons in the box. :biggrin_25524:

    Saw one today in a parking lot. Wished I had my camera.

    It had a wind up key put on the back.

    I think I remember taking a picture of one with a small camper.

    I will check tomorrow and see if I remember how to post it.

    Not only did the guy not know he was dragging a boulder, he stopped in the interstate because he didn't know he was losing air pressure. He had to be seeing stars and little wiggly things. :)

    Sadly, no. None of the States have had the "stones" to write such a law.

    I think Knight may have one they can borrow, though. I guess they can get started on it now.
