    Wouldnt have been wrong if the driver didnt hit a bridge with netting on it. Yes I know having snow up there is illegal.

    What you going to do? You just woke up, broker called already saying they waiting for you and it snowed 3 foot during your stop.

    We have to blame it on the eld,s, shut down for a mandatory break and can not move so the snow builds up, then able to move legal with logs and you have to remove a few feet of sleet and snow from on top a 13'6". rolling stones gather no moss.We live in a country that sometimes you should keep rolling.Laws are supposed to be reasonable.

    So this is someplace near the mountains where it can snow quick, driver takes off, no snow around where filming takes place so driven 30 ? miles like that. Where is the police? What options are there for that driver?

    That could've just as easily been me. What if anything should the driver have done differently?

    If the bridge wasn’t so decrepit that it needed a net there wouldn’t be a problem.
