MAJOR WRONG WAY SEMI CRASH & TOW PART 1

A semi loaded with steel crashed through the median, through the cables into the opposing lanes of traffic, hit a bridge, then tangled itself in the barrier cables back by the median. All without injuries... Our job was to untangle it and get it off the interstate, all while working with traffic coming TOWARDS us. Thanks for watching and God bless. www.paypal.me/RotatorRon

[@RonPratt]

I cut this video a great deal. There were a lot of things I did where the driver was next to me, and, unfortunately, he was using a lot of foul language. I attempted to edit out his language, but it was just too much and lost most of the procedures, so I simply cut out the entire sections of video. Thanks for watching and God bless.

[@StrongOneYT]

@@RonPratt Honestly with the amount of deleted parts in the video, I would rather read captions or something and here it silent instead of not seeing a video, I do see why you maid that decision, and not all the viewers would like it, but it would be nice for the users who want to watch the whole video because that's what they like most of it, this is especially true for the younger group of people who watch you.

Driving a truck / van is often easier than driving a small car :D

[@reetthen]

The trouble with getting good at fast reversing in truck or car is you sometimes try and shift up into second gear, crunch! It's the sound of the revs peaking that does it.

I'm always glad to hear you telling the client that "Nobody got hurt or was killed. That's what matters. THINGS can be replaced." My father had a fit once when my mom, me & a sister were in an accident. UPS truck ran a red light, t-boned a car and spun it around and hit us head on. All my dad said was "MY CAR...LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO MY CAR!!" That was to my mom, not the UPS driver who caused the accident. He never once asked if me mom or sister were hurt. He didn't care...all he cared about was HIS car. Someone on scene said those same words to him and I thought my father was going to deck him. He snarled at the man and told him to mind his own business. The man then walked over to us and HE asked if we were hurt. I was only about 8 & sis was 10. I have never forgotten that and it happened over 50+ years ago. It's always nice to know there are caring, compassionate people in this world like you. God Bless you Ron. Stay safe out there! 💜🙏

[@redwood_shores]

Marcia M Sadly unbelievable. I hope God bless you afterwards.

[@zeviono4562]

Yes Marcia I know what you mean. My dad was like that. Possessions were so important to them. Maybe it was because they grew up in the Great Depression where they had so little. Did he change later in life - show he cared and loved you? I study screenwriting and its quite rare that bad characters change. My dad never once told any of us kids that he loved us. He was a good provider but again I think that was because of the Depression. His parents were a little reserved too, so maybe that was part of what shaped his personality. WW2 obviously had an effect on him as well - disciplinarian etc. Chased everything with a skirt, divorced my mum who was a very kind lovely woman, died a little sorrowful I think at only 56.

[@judil3294]

@@zeviono4562 Sorry you had to deal with that. Yes, people did seem to be much more reserved back then. I never doubted really that my dad loved us but he rarely showed open affection. Then a couple of years after I left home, was providing for myself, etc., I went home for a visit that meant driving 400 miles on my own. When I drove into the driveway and got out of the car he came rushing out of the house and threw his arms around me. Totally took me by surprise but I never again doubted he had stronger emotions inside than usually showed.

[@georgiapatriot4575]

I'm proud of myself for figuring out you'd pull that bumper out before you did it. I'm a "computer guy" that's good at problem solving. I enjoy watching your channel because that's what you do on these calls. You are given some random problem made of twisted metal and other random debris and you solve it by using your experience, tools, and problem solving skills. Obviously, your situation is a LOT more dangerous than mine.

[@JohnRolyAU]

I thought he would rip the entire bumper off with the winch. then he stopped and retained it with the ratchet strap.

[@morriewyatt6234]

My first thought when I saw the bumper bent under the tractor was: "I'd be inclined to use the drag winch to pull the bumper back out." and the moment I saw the bumper wasn't going to be rigid enough to support itself, the words "Ratchet Strap!" came immediately to mind. The next steps was always going to be pulling the drive shaft. Hearing that the air lines had been severed, I knew that "Cage the brakes" would have to follow. The only thing that Ron didn't (at least seem to) do was to clean his arm before climbing back into the cab. Disliking being dirty myself, that would have driven me nuts on the drive back to the shop. I'm an Australian, so driving on the left seemed perfectly normal to me. 🙂 Great work Ron. Stay safe.

[@kennethhume8628]

[@HappilyHomicidalHooligan]

@@JohnRolyAU Ron couldn't rip it off without doing damage to the still attached mount that he'd then have to fix at his expense...

I figured Ron would either winch the bumper like he did or ignore it and pick the truck up by the wheels like car tow trucks do...

I think something I definitely appreciate and admire about Ron is just how, calm, friendly, and respectful he is while on the job. More than likely off the job also but in this line of work having a level head at all times really comes in handy.

[@Hurtydwarf]

That whole incident and that steel never shifted. At least you know the tiedown was good.

[@kd5nrh]

Hauling about two tons on a flatbed l got a good scare when I looked in the mirror and saw a 20' beam turned crosswise. Luckily, my regular steel supplier was about a quarter mile ahead, so I managed to get into his lot without anything else shifting, and bought a whole new set of tiedowns. Then went back to the shop and had a talk with the boss about cobbling together random bits of broken equipment. The few hundred he'd been saving with worn tiedowns could have cost both me and the company tens of thousands.

[@brenda8553]

The other day as I was going to a doctor's appointment. I saw a fancy sport car turn in front of a cement truck. The car ran up a tree and the truck got control and stopped about 2 ft from a house after he ran over several shrubs and small trees. My first thought was how you not giving yourself and your employees enough room to get in and out of the truck and getting your equipment on the driver's side. Those cars and semis are flying when passing you. If its a two lane shut down one of the lanes at least. I've seen so many accidents because drivers don't give right of way or don't care and end of crashing into someone. I know you are the professional and the police want the road opened up as quick as possible, but they need to make sure that you are safe too. Thanks for the videotapes. I marvel at your knowledge, politeness, and kindness.

[@Mach_Style]

that shift into high range reverse hurt my soul lol. Any time i've used it, I would just start out in high on the reverse and delicately slip the clutch to get it moving as apposed to essential going from the equivalent of 1st gear to 4th. But in the end what ever gets the job done. Makes me glad we have high range reverse though. Makes doing freeway construction jobs so much easier when you have to reverse several miles down an interstate.

High speed reverse, I LOVE it! I drive dump truck for a company that does asphalt paving. There are times when we back up 2 miles on the freeway, or other roads in high speed reverse. That driver certainly did have an unseen passenger riding with him this day!

I see you are the best backwards driver like Mater? WEEEE HOOOO!!!!

great job backing up

[@shaunagriffin1178]

First off....Great job, that was a heck of a lot of work, And for an old lady (that I am) very intense when having to watch you go backwards, I drive a minivan and don’t like having to back out of the driveway, let alone something that size. What ever happened that made that driver mess up like that, I was glad there were no humans lol hurt.
