Whiskey Business 1,177 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 A few years ago, a s chicken truck crashed on an Atlanta freeway in the summer. You could smell it from miles away. Link to post Share on other sites

Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 3,385 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 It's not just down South or rural.... We've got a roadway through the center of Boston called Storrow Drive...runs along the Charles River, and to the unfamiliar looking at a map, looks like a way to avoid the downtown congestion...problem is, it has some VERY low bridges and overpasses. Several times a year, truckers ignore the "Low Clearance" signs, and open up their trailers like a sardine can, or tip them right over, spilling chickens, hogs, watermelon, eggs, medical waste, toilet paper, fertilizer, ice cream, and whatever else on the roadway. Very often jamb the trailer under so tight that it has to be cut out. Very lively traffic jambs and road rage follow. The nearly universal statement from the drivers? "I thought I could make it"....

Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 679 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Wish I had five bucks for everyone I know around here that forgot to lock the loading gate on their stock trailer. Bob, I used to travel S. Georgia and all over Florida quite a bit. Thing you had to look out for was pulpwood trucks. None had reflectors or tail lights, much less brakes, and rarely was the load secured properly. Many's the time at dawn or dusk when I saw dark objects lying in the road....roadkilled pulpwood!

Noz 2,010 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 A friend of mine was driving a semi loaded with 300,000 or some equally ridiculous number of fresh eggs. He lost control on a slick highway ramp in Kansas City. Dumped the whole load on a large overhead traffic exchange. Freezing conditions and they had to get the fire department out to attempt to wash frozen eggs off of the highway. They told him next trip to not take I-35. Link to post Share on other sites
