    Beelman did not have a great start to the weekend. Always check your tailgate is open when dumping off kids!

    Big oof. This is why i physically touch everythjng and pull the gate open after i unlatch. And if i feel its off i go look and refuse to be rushed. Least the truck didnt go over too.

    Yep I do the same thing, I don’t leave anything to chance. He loaded the wrong product and the scale house had him go dump it back where he came from. There was about 157 trucks in the quarry and he was in the way and got frazzled and rushed from what it seems. It sucks but like you said it could have been way worse.

    @motocross25 you have to be the witness to the most rollovers on this thread, I scroll back to the beginning days of this thread a lot and you must have no less than 5 rollovers posted over the years, I’ve luckily only been witness to one that I can remember and it was after the fact, just came up on it already on its side. Stay safe, always be the photographer not the photographed :)

    Dude! You’re not the only one who has noticed that! Lol my coworker said the same thing “god #### you’re bad luck someone’s always flipping over where you’re at”. If we ever run into each other somewhere dump when I’m around at your own peril!

    J.B Hunt seems to be getting into all sorts a different things. I believe they go into companies an offer to do their transportation work for them by providing drivers, trucks, an maybe trailers. They can do it cheaper an save on what said company was paying out in overall benefits, payroll, an overhead. Seems to be the way it works anyways.

    Here’s one for ya guys. A belly dump loaded at the quarry and didn’t have his trap shut all the way and spread rock nice and even in the right lane on a 70 mph highway. Needless to say, our good friends at Kansas DOT were not impressed.

    This was my day today. Started at 530 AM going to pick up DDGs. Ended up having the wrong load numbers and ended up in line till almost 1pm bleah.

    You know the wait is long when it takes so long to get to the front you manage to make and eat lunch...and its still 7 hours after you started XD frigging poet.
