Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

[Slowpoke Slim]

Now would be a good time for somebody to post a pic of towing wrong... otherwise I may have to go put a cord of green hardwood on my 2000 lb payload dump trailer, just to get the thread back on track.

Here you go.

This guy was hauling this bucket on the trailer with zero tie downs of any kind.

Throw couple tie down on it, flip it over and you can tow both straight to the junk yard. Gotta love self loading trailers!

THAT'S what I'm talking about!!!
I'm still not sure if that old Dodge was the tower, or being towed on the trailer.

The white truck off in the parking lot was towing the blue one on the trailer. Look close and you will see chains used to tie it to the trailer.

And the heavy end of the blue truck was on the rear of the trailer.

What is that yellow frame, and how is it attached to the trailer? Just wondering. Jon

I was trying to figure out that yellow frame thing too.

I was trying to figure out that yellow frame thing too.

It looks like a shipping frame. The ones from overseas come in those a lot of the time. Otherwise the round bottom of the bucket would not be stable in the shipping container. I like the ones that come that way as you don't need to secure them in a van trailer. The bucket is bolted in them. Kinda like the shipping frames that TSC rototillers come in.
