    I thought for certain it was going to happen on the left side where people wer not moving over. Good reflexes on the tow truck driver.

    If you're going to crash, best to crash right up onto a tow truck. You're ready to go!

    "AM I OK; AM I OK??? - I SHIP MY PANTS!!!"

    Hey; I deal with this deadly crap daily. they're out there - Cagers are morons, just on wheels.
    I have left and curbside handles to operate the bed. I always use the curbside set of handles.
    Had a lady roll up to us at an accident, and accidently slip the clutch and run under the loaded truck
    and smash all the driver side controls off the truck. Not much damage, but If I was standing there
    it would have broke my hip or legs. Had one on Rt. 80 flatten a cone I always put near the edge of the bed, like a foot out from it. If I was down under the front hooking up the chain that would have flattened me.
    I never turn my back on the traffic, like a dog you don't trust. Sad state of affairs and not worth dyin' for.
    I have the dazzling new super-bright LED "amberlamps" lightshow and they still don't move over??

    And for your azzkickin' viewing pleasure; the original source of "amber lamps;"
    Translation:AMBULANCE?
    Search - You Tube:
