Looks like the truck stayed together!!! Thought for sure he'd pull the hydro ram out of the socket up top or something..

Wow! Can't help but wonder how far he went without looking in his mirror.

Did I notice the white pickup was oblivious until the road sign almost landed on him.

Its just the driver being an idiot as I have seen the same thing happen here in Florida as well, However the idiot here in Florida took out a bridge that thankfully was not being used at the time he hit it.

No doubt, The Drive ate the steering wheel. Last year older fella in a roll off dumpster straight truck did the same thing except hit a overpass. Ate the steering wheel with a seat belt on.
Surprised none of these drivers noticed a difference shifting gears with the PTO engaged, always a little bit more grinding or a simple look in the mirrors a few times. -
...and here I thought you might've been referring to the incident I saw on the way home. Dump bucket at the sand pit raised his bed to clean out...without looking up...got into the power lines and things got exciting. Black smoke was visible for a couple miles as I rolled up, and by the time I got there, the rear of the trailer was fully engulfed. They were talking on the CB that they got the fire out on the tractor...but couldn't extinguish the trailer. Sheriff was already on scene directing traffic and the fire truck pulled up right behind me. They said the driver got out OK...which is kinda dumb when the truck is into the power lines...but it was on fire, too. Tough call...roast or fry.
ALWAYS look up. -
Wow...
I seen a guy do the same same....melted all the tires like right away..scalemaster lost his a/c,he came out all unhindged about the a/c...I believe he took out power to the hot mix plant as well, held up life for hours
