I'm glad it worked out for him and you. I agree, kind of a scary situation. When he lay down on the trailer, were you obligated to strap him down to secure your load?

Yes I would have had to strap him down otherwise could have been issued a citation for Unsecured Dunnage

The body language would have worked well if he was wearing a sasquatch costume.

Good thing there are good cops as well. In Toronto, he might have got shot multiple times and THEN tasered if he didn't obey their hysterical screaming to comply.

Scary stuff. Nice equipment.

CN: Guy with blood on his shirt and a knife in his hand won't drop the knife, starts to run away, turns around and runs towards the LEO, gets zippered.

You handled that really well. Hopefully he was able to get professional help.

Far more tolerant than I would be but I guess you're pretty safe locked in the cab. The guy was probably back on the street the next day. :rolleyes:

I suppose it's ok for people to act crazy once and a while long as no harm is done, maybe he saw the vote for Hillary sticker on your bumper and that made him upset.

I would say he acted very calmly to have seen a Hillary sticker on a piece of equipment for "work". lol

I also am glad it worked out well for all but as has been hinted at not all such does. No way we know till we are in such a situation but say you had a small child riding with you or your wife or instead of being in the country it was a street in a bad area of town? kt

I am still laughing at thought that he was reacting to the Hillary Sticker on my chrome bumper. Priceless

Crack heads and other opioid users are not ordinarily aggressive.

Unfortunately druggies don't come with Warning Labels that say, "I'm on Crystal Meth."

Thank goodness for Heroin. They usually just lay down and go to sleep. Too bad you never can tell just what they are on so you have to consider guys acting like this as extremely dangerous. People never appreciate that until they have had some guys wrist bent back almost until it's going to snap (agonizing) yet they laugh . Or crying one second then trying to attack anyone near by the next and a couple big cops can't hold them down. That's what tazers and pepper spray are for. That said it's a good idea to keep a can in you car for just such occasions.
These days you are more likely than ever to run into wackos like this out on the back roads. They found a new "shake n bake" method to cook small doses of meth . Instead of cooking it at home or the garage they drive around and make it in their car using plastic soda bottles. Just another road hazard out there to deal with.
These critters are about as close to zombies as anything that ever really existed. If you want to see some pretty pictures go take a look at the before and after pictures , google "Faces Of Meth". Priceless!
