Because it pulls down and against the way it wants to roll, and when you strap all corners, can’t move anywhere.

What is a HGB? Grass is so slick in the rain. But you need rain. We do in Arizona too. The driver must have been shocked when that building came up, and probably embarrassed too about being so negligent and reckless. He only had time for that, this is going to hurt, thought.

Dustin, I though about changing my career to towing and recovery but my fear is that I am older and being on the edge of late 30s going into my 40s I don't know how long I could do towing and recovery
@DeanerBC Жыл бұрын
I feel the same way since I'm in my mid 30's but at the same time, where I currently work I love delivering and picking up machinery. So towing is something I'm highly considering switching to. Worst case scenario I just go back to what I know if it doesn't work out.

I had to watch this video again. Since it involves something very important. I have towed, but, before I was a electrician for 18 years. I don't know building in Texas, not a bit. This looks like a "older " building. Probably been worked on a lot. From the video Justin has, it's a 3 phase, typical for commercial. Hard to see in the video, but, 4 lines from the pole to building. Might be single phase now, since one meter socket, doesn't have a meter. Fire department might have removed it. The truck just missed everything. We as people want to help, just be careful and cautious if we come across a situation, that could be like this. Most common electrocution deaths 110/120. The person gets grounded. 3 phase plays different I doubt it was 277/480. My point is, when in doubt, walk away. Call for help and assistance. The old saying, bad plumbing can get you wet, bad electrical can kill you. Be safe. God bless!
@Towtruck_Dustin Жыл бұрын
This definitely had the opportunity to be a very dangerous situation outside of the damage already caused. Which is why we worked closely with the fire department to make sure it was safe before we removed the vehicle. They had already shut off all the breakers.

Hey brother, one of those calls where a wheel lift is better than a flat bed. You already know my opinion between the two types of trucks. Lol. With a flatbed 25,000 pounds pounds or more on soaked ground, compared to a wheel lift 15,000 pounds and up. Both only have 1 set of dual tires in back. The loading on the drive tires on your flatbed would have dug trenches! Hats off to fire, police and EMS, all needed and much applause 👏 🙌 👍. Be safe

Dustin do you have any accident rotations that need a different kind of truck other then your regular Rollback you drive, does it make a difference if the wheel lift truck has a streight boom or a foldable wheel lift truck doing a wrench out like this one with the pickup inside a building
@Towtruck_Dustin Жыл бұрын
There aren’t very many situations that “need” a different truck, other than some special recoveries, but it can make it easier. The wheel lift has no effect on a recovery if you’re not using it to tow the vehicle.
