So yesterday, yet ANOTHER giant spool fell off a big truck onto the highway. Seriously, who's loading these??

I’m more interested in who’s tying them down or who’s hauling stuff they have no business hauling.
Lepton1, IluvCATS, drvrtech77 and 4 others Thank this. -
Is Houston so blind? So... dimwitted? Lack of credibility with all those cameras around?
I did not mind it once, twice for happenstance. Accidents happen. But 4, 5 or more times? Someone is #### well hauling the stuff that they have absolutely no business hauling. Or worse I must assume we are experiencing a form of attack through terror.
Enough is quite enough with this BS coil dropping. I cannot believe with the resources of the powerful internet, all these drivers, LIMITED LOADING by only a FEW who handle those coils... and we are still screwing about with coils gone wild. Makes a mockery of everything.
Mark my words people are going to get really badly hurt or dead. You do not want to be having a large coil a instrument of your last day on earth or worse.Bud A., LoneCowboy, mjd4277 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Son of a *****! Can’t they keep the f****** things secured on the flatbed anymore??
IluvCATS, Swiss Mountain Dog, Bud A. and 1 other person Thank this. -
This is proof that standards need to rise...but too many co's have a requirement of...having a pulse and breathing to get hired on..
JonJon78 Thanks this. -
Dang it, my next load delivers in Houston on Wednesday. If you see a story about a tanker smashed by a runaway spool near Lockwood Drive, I just want you all to know right now that I love you. Not as much as my wife and daughter, but still.
