I wish to thank everyone who has expressed their prayers and/or condolences for the death of my Dad. The outpouring of support from my viewers has been tremendous and has helped in this difficult time. May God bless each and every one of you. Also, thank you for your patience. I am still making videos, but I took a couple weeks off-call after my dad passed, so I wasn't doing very many jobs. I'm using some previously unreleased videos to fill in so that I still maintain my once-a-week video release. I will continue to perform jobs and create videos, as long as God allows. Things will be different moving forward. I have to trust that God will guide me and this channel.
So, in this video, a red Dodge Avenger (REDD) is parked on the shoulder of the interstate with its flashers on when another car travelling at, as stated to us, 70 mph or 113 kmh, crashed into the rear of the Avenger pushing it through the guard rail and down an embankment. The Avenger is totally crushed and mangled. We do tear a few things up in this video, which isn't normal for us, but this car WAS NOT and IS NOT going to be repairable. Sorry, but duct tape and bondo won't put this Avenger back together again. Mike uses the Ford F650 with Miller LCG10 to remove recover and tow the white car while I use our Peterbilt 337 with the LCG12 and my home-made side puller to recover and haul/tow what's left of the Avenger.
Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taking the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!! www.paypal.me/RotatorRon

Ron, Your dad raised a good son. His legacy lives on through you and your family. He is one proud man looking down on all of you. I lost my dad when I was 19, my brother at 32 and very sadly my daughter when she was only 24. I have learned the grieving process takes time, treat yourself well during this time. God bless you and your family. Lots of folks who follow the channel feel the loss as well. We never met your dad but we knew him. On this recovery a stong message is sent. The potential for serious injury or passing is just a moment away. That Avenger was really crushed, the impact must have been immense. I wish drivers would be more attentive than they are these days. I put a lot of miles on due to family issues and have had many close calls due to the inattentiveness of others. Riding motorcycles for decades has honed my awareness and I drive as if everyone is a potential threat. 360 vision, put it where they can't hurt you, and read the road environment has served me well. Be careful out there.

It hurt me especially hard because I was the one that found him and felt nothing but cold flesh when I checked for a pulse. Take all the time off that you need, Ron. We will still be here when you return. Thank God there were no serious injuries. Stay safe and God bless.

About the only type of car compactor that would make those two any smaller would be a Predator car baler. A car crusher would just crush them to the "crush flat" limit, which those two vehicles are pretty much already at.

It's really spooky when travelling along a motorway with nothing coming the other way on the other carriageway, just a string of emergency service vehicles travelling over there, but in the same direction as myself. It was a filthy wet night, and about ten miles before I passed the scene of the accident.

This reminds me of an accident in my hometown. A lady wasn't in her right state of mind, and she accelerated within city limits to about 75 miles per hour and hit a four way intersection that included two or three side streets on top of the 4 legs.. Her vehicle was launched 150 feet. Surprisingly, nobody was killed.

When I see an accident like this, I always wonder if the cause is "target-fixation", where the driver looks at the vehicle stopped on the side, and panics and then goes where he/she is looking, rather than the lane clear of the stopped vehicle.

As a Tow operator myself, I agree with one exception, in this situation there was a steep embankment just off the shoulder with what looked to be water meaning there would have been nowhere for the people in the Avenger to move off the roadway to. The safest option in this scenario would have been to remain inside the vehicle until help arrived (which is obviously what happened here).

At least on the one he usually drove. (Though if I recall correctly, that was the Western Star, which is hard to take out of service long enough to paint.) We did something similar on my church's tech crew--one of our sound operators passed suddenly. Years later we still have the front page of the memorial bulletin up in the tech booth.

I thought about making a similar suggestion. It wouldn't even have to be painted, a vinyl graphic would work fine and would be easily replaced if it got scratched. All 5 of the semi tractors that I own, as well as one of my dads old tractors that I've restored have them with In loving memory of and his year of birth and death.

My entire state is in shock and total disbelief. What was supposed to be a joyful holiday parade turned into a tragedy when a speeding SUV ran through the parade route while fleeing police. My friends who were there escaped physical injury, but what they saw will remain burned in their memories. I am keeping you, Ron, and your family in my prayers for continued healing and peace.

I will miss seeing your dad do the patrolling. Please let's us know if Talon will come back on the trucks. Who will you groom for a second driver of the 'tator?

Mike I am so very sorry for the loss of your Dad. No matter how old we are the loss of a father is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can know. I kept thinking of the four part video you made with your Dad when you went looking for the abandoned van in the National Forest. Although it was a little emotional this time, I'm so very glad you have that special video. The goodness, caring, and wisdom along with the love he had for his you, his son, was amazing. May the memory of your dad's love for his family surround you now and help bring you peace.

Hey Ron. Hadn't watch you in a while, doing a little catching up here. My condolences about your dad even though that's a few months back ago now. Never easy, but glad you were able to take a little time off. This was one of the rougher incidents I've seen on the channel, glad that no major injuries came of it. When the officer said "see you next time"... although it's good for business, you have to wish for less "next times". Accidents do happen, best we can hope for is that any bodily harm is minimal and that everybody can get to where they need to be at the end of the day. You guys are so efficient at what you do and get traffic moving again quick as possible, I have to hand it to y'all for that.

Sorry for your loss Ronn, its been awhile since I've been on so I didn't know that your farther passed. I myself have been going through a hard time. My wife was recently diagnosed with Cancer and has been in and out of the hospital. I'm so afraid of losing her and am doing my best to stay strong but its very hard. I wish you and your family the very best and may God be with you at all times. Love the show.......

If ever there was a "totaled" car I think this was it. When you pulled the wheel off I knew there was no hope. You guys did a great job. You did this very quickly. I know you mentioned that this was before you lost your dad. I miss him so much. I loved to see him working with you even if it was just controlling traffic. He was a good man. I still miss my dad and I lost him in 1988. You never stop missing them.

Good on you Ron, I'm an OTR driver an have been where you are within the last few months. Take the time you need for you, and just ease yourself back into life. You're the only one who knows how much time that is, and once you feel comfortable then yes come back to work but leave KZbin behind initially only come back to the camera once you feel comfortable but don't rush it. Life takes priority over work and it takes longer than you think to heal. Prayers Ron, and please take your time.

Ron, again my deepest condolences for the loss of your Dad. Just a suggestion, the side pull of the roller fairlead is surprisingly low, and I have caused one to fail in the field. To have helped take most of the pressure off the side of the fairlead, you should attach your pulley in an eyelet farther aft on the deck. This would have caused the cable to put a lot less pressure on the side post of the fairlead. When mine failed it caused the top mount for the side fairlead to get bent up, nothing a torch and hammer could not straighten and fix at the shop. I learned my lesson the hard way, during the winter in about a foot of snow, on a remote dirt road, on top of a 9,500 foot mountain Northeast of Reno Nevada.
