I came upon a wreck this morning which is not uncommon this time of year. I fully expect to see bent sheet metal when the weather turns nasty and the roads become covered in snow and ice. However, there’s no reason for this when the road is bone dry. Yet day after day it happens anyway.
This enclosed car hauler looks to have been riding along in the right lane. From the looks of it this is likely one of Swift’s Custom Carriers. (which may explain a lot)
A drop deck oversize Peterbuilt loaded with a sprayer and combine head Out in the left hand lane to pass.
Somehow these two big rigs managed to get all tangled up. From my experience that sprayer was hanging over the edge of the deck. This is a normal occurrence and is not the cause nor explanation for this mess. Careless inattentive driving is the real cause.
When you think that your day is all jacked up just remember it could be worse… One minute you’re driving along minding your business… The next thing you know you’ve been hit by another driver and your ride is a twisted mess of scrap metal.
