    No, the destination is excellence. This driver is lucky to be alive, but he didnt not arrive at his destination.

    I thought you were a van driver? Must be thinking of someone else.

    I started trucking as a flatbedder. I am looking to also continue on with flats/steps. I also hauled bradley's, M113's, M577's, HEMTT's and other equipment for the MN Army National Guard.

    I am multi-talented.

    I've also hauled a Super-B tanker (JP8 for the USAF), Anyhydrous, Propane, Hopper, Reefer, MGN, Fixed Single Drop, Pneumatic and currently a dry box.

    I'm sure that scratch will buff out.

    38000lb ingot, traveling at 40mph at impact, taking 0.5 seconds to come to a stop, would exert roughly 280,000lbs on any securement that was used to restrain it.

    Got that much securement?
