    Face plant !
    The first time I figured not to trust gps. I was about to make a left turn going where I know I'm going , but the gps said instead to go straight through the intersection, drive into the residential area, take the first right, then the next right and then the next right and then go back through the intersection I'm already at and drive on through. So I just made my left turn and saved all that aggravation.

    The new breed of drivers today solely depend on the gos they won't even look at there surroundings to know something isn't right.

    i had seen this on the local news, from a network pick up feed. even if no boards are physically broken, i am sure that many cracked under the extreme weight even if the truck was empty. CRST ought to be billed for an entirely new boardwalk. and of course, the driver, fired.
