    Hey now
    Don’t say like that!!!

    I think some jump from trailer type to trailer type and maybe have no business doing one over another
    Posted before but have seen prime with coils strapped with the $10 Walmart straps

    Nothing in that one about a flatbed, "flatten" refered to roof of fire truck. Might have been a skateboard, but didnt see any evidence of that.

    That said.... tennessee

    Nope your right i misread read the title and thought this thread was infact this one 2 Truckers Killed In Accident On I-40 Near Cookeville,TN saw firetruck and i40 and for some reason read flatbed i40 lol

    I chose to blame the benadryl i took before my shower. Totally not because i had my glasses off and dont want to admit it. Not at all!

    Eh, was florida man driving florida junk, see spread coils on trailer before impact? He was spreading weight to drives and trailer wheels cause his trailer wasnt structurally sound enough to center load anyway.

    I forgive you, say 4 "hail chain binders" and 2 "our bungees" and you are absolved
     
    Flat Earth Trucker, GYPSY65 and CAXPT Thank this.
