Watch the view from the side-mirror, and out the windows in V's first Ford truck video.

I'm not totally convinced that truck is moving when it's 'sposed to be backing up.

That's because his yap flappin' take much longer than trailer backin'. ;)

Not really in the same vein as the thread, but...

:cool:

Cute.

Sure it is, shit Pam sees, and I'm sure this is part of the scenery.

I do NOT run behind 62 mph Swift trucks!!!

I can make 70 and I pass those rolling roadblocks!

I thought that Swift had to speed up their trucks about 10 years ago.

The driver forgot to set the trailer brakes. The tractor brakes were set, but only for the back wheels. The steering wheels are not affected by the parking brake. This is to allow you to steer in the event of loss of air pressure while driving, thus locking up the driving wheels.

What a maroon!

I thought maybe the driver didn't set any brake, and just left the truck in gear, and, then, when the crane and trailer lifted the drive axle...off she went.

Insult to injury.

Well not everyday, but occasionally, rolling roadblocks.
