Lmaooo I drive for Schneider but my truck is champagne

[@shaneschampers7240]

Why didnt you stop at massey ferguson parking lot?

[@kevinrichards3288]

Do you ever see the other kind of semi trucks "cabovers" out there on the roads? I very seldom see any of them around here in 🇺🇸 nowadays.

[@dustbat]

with 60 foot trailers on the way, you might see them back.

[@kevinrichards3288]

@@dustbat at first I didn't know why the number of them decreased. Then I've learned the law in the USA increased the length limit which made them no longer a necessity & that's when more conventional cabs replaced them. I use to see them all the time back in the 1980s & down. Today the USA is one of very few countries that only has a small number of them.

[@kevinrichards3288]

@@dustbat 60ft trailers wow I didn't hear about those coming. If I'm not mistakin I think the 53fters came out back in either the late 1980s or early 1990s. Speakin of the 53fters I've seen some semis pull doubles which I didn't think was legal. But the 28fters on the other hand, I see semis pull doubles of those often.

[@dustbat]

@@kevinrichards3288 I was in the Mack F model from 73 to the 80's. The cab was not much wider than the tire! I felt I was king of the road in that most basic of trucks. They went to the MH model and what an improvement. You could sleep on the dog house in a day cab! Late 80's we started getting the hoods in and it took a little getting comfortable with that hood out there. Different states have different regs. I pulled the pups a lot and they for me were much easier to deal with.

[@dustbat]

@@kevinrichards3288 I found they were in Canada so you know they will come down here.They made them still keep the over all length the same so if that happened here the Cab over might make a come back. Or the stupid government might out law all trucks.

[@markyoder1891]

That's Southern yellow pine he's hauling, if he would put a smoker tarp on it that would have never happened

[@ROADGRAGEDRIVERSUSA]

hi can i please use this video on my dashcam compilation

[@bigrigcook7322]

Go for it!

[@KA-om9oz]

wont be long and truckers will be replaced by automated trucks..

[@jasond5405]

It sucks tarping anything but you atleast need a small tarp in the front of a lumber load to keep that from happening. But of course if you have a head board on your trailer and load it all the way forward then you will never have this problem. I have seen this happen hundreds of times when the truck has to stop fast!!

[@sonnypruitt6639]

What did you stop driving for? Oh man, I got board.

[@hoosierdad8061]

i didnt see any reason to stop. i wouldve kept on rollin

[@ronjohnson303]

Hoosier Dad. Have to check for damage, the driver dropping the lumber is responsible for damage to other vehicles

[@hoosierdad8061]

he ran over some wood. there was no damage

[@hoosierdad8061]

advantage of driving a company truck... i dont give s*** lol

[@ziiofswe]

He drove into still falling pieces of wood. There probably were at least some damages to the paint and less sturdy parts like lights and such...

[@rileylola1966]

Hoosier Dad hes russian

[@bigrigcook7322]

Sure thing.. Thanks

[@otroargentinocamioneroenes5805]

Why stop in the middle of the road...just for a piece of wood? Is no even a 2x4 get out of my way!!!

[@bigrigcook7322]

Juan Pirondi ..... they were 2x10s and they hit the front and side of my truck if you look carefully. Had to make sure there was no damage. Thanks

[@otroargentinocamioneroenes5805]

RustyNail ok...you right is your truck and you need to make sure..

[@ronjohnson303]

Why WOOD he dump that all over the road?

[@renegranados7436]

ZZZZ!!

[@Morbid611]

So any damage to your truck? You never said...

[@bigrigcook7322]

Morbid611 no sir. Thank God.

[@Morbid611]

Glad to here. Looked like those boards hit right into your driver side corner panel. 👍

[@RoadCamsVideoss]

Hi, RustyNail! would it be possible to use this video in my US Compilation? Credit and Links in the description. Thanks in advance!

[@deserthorizons]

I always strapped my loads down with the mindset that I wanted it secure,, even if I rolled over.. Obviously this driver didn't have that same mindset.. Did he have ANY straps over any of that load.?

[@masaallen1009]

deserthorizons obviously you've never hauled Lumber. Or never had anyone stopped quickly in front of you with a load of lumber you can put all the straps you want on it the center of the bundle will still slide out.

[@deserthorizons]

Actually I have hauled lumber.. But how can the "center' ones slide out if it is loaded properly.. The front bundles should be up against the headache rack so they can't go forward,, additional bundles should be packed up against them.. The only boards that should be able to 'slide out' should be at the rear during fast acceleration.. Now if it s stacked "incorrectly'' (or too tall) such as this one,, you are just asking for trouble.. and BTW,, if you're a trucker ,, you have had someone pull out in front of you.. You MUST expect that and plan for that..

[@ziiofswe]

Even if he had the _mindset_, the practical application of it was a fail. :P If you look at the video again you can almost see what went wrong. The individual bundles weren't strapped together. So when the driver threw the straps over the entire load and then started tightening it at bed level, the outer stacks of planks were pulled slightly outwards, as the top part of the straps were stretched. The most pulling force is between the edge of the bundle and the attach point at the bed, and when you pull down and out, the outer planks will move down... and out. Leaving the middle part of the bundle loose.

[@RandalLovelace]

I paused and then framed forward, he had straps, but watching the video a few times, they didn't seem tight at all, also of note, the binding on the pallets was also really loose.

[@keithzoufaly2791]

it looks as if the flatbed was cut off by the small four wheeler. at 1:45 you can just make out the car pulling out into traffic directly ahead of the flatbed.

[@brucethomas3100]

Keith Zoufaly Well Sir! It seems as though there was plenty of room between the little four wheeler and the front of the Kenworth. Didn't see any black marks on the pavement left by the Kenworth so it doesn't look like the driver had to lock it down. Hmmm, probably lost his load due to it not being tied down properly. But what do I know, only been dragging a rag wagon around for a little over 10 years.

[@keithzoufaly2791]

I do agree that better strapped/ loaded load would have prevented this from occurring. i still believe that the four wheeler should have waited for traffic to pass. it seems drivers are becoming more ignorant to how to behave around trucks.

[@bigrigcook7322]

You mean you got "bored"... sorry I bored you brother.

[@scabs728]

Man

[@eddieoviedo10]

Geez, people need to learn to edit!!😵😵

[@bigrigcook7322]

Eddie Oviedo .... sorry bro, wish I knew how to... thanks
