Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

I wondered if that's what it was. Didn't get a good look as to whether it was a toy hauler or not.

I was guessing he had a waterbed in that top bunk.

Not the worst I've seen, but chains would be better.








Well the second picture says it will hold upside down....

Agreed. I've seen worse, but chains are required on that load.

On this side of the Sabine River, those straps would get you a ticket. Probably would in TX too.

you're kidding me right.... not even 10K lbs. DOT doesn't require chains until 10K lbs

after looking more closely at the pictures i and to take my comment back, but not because of the straps, the fact that th loadr and bushhog aren't strapped bothers me

One single strap across the back is not enough and the small one on the mower would barely count.
4 individual 3" straps(3000 lbs. each) would pass. Plus one for attachment
If one of the 4 breaks, then the other 3 will hold.

This photo was on Facebook, it was taken near Ocala FL. , it said the truck was traveling about 50 mph.

Shouldn't this one be in the chains and load binders thread?

I watched those with sort of sick fascination. For me, the very last clip was creepy, like some kind of weird nightmare.

Russian clips are so common, I wonder, does every driver in Russia have a dash cam?

Quite a few do since fraud is so common there. People fake injuries and what-not, so many use dash cams to have proof otherwise.

My understanding was they are required by law; maybe not Federation wide, but at least in some Oblasts, and/or republics. Keep in mind there are Oblasts (basically states) as well as autonomous republics within the Russian Federation.
