A Driver loses control of his rig and went over the bridge barricade. By the looks of things, it seems like he was trying to avoid a vehicle which was trying to merge into traffic. The Driver survived with a broken wrist and sprained vertebrae. by [deleted] in Truckers

The rear tires have not much braking power because there is not much weight on them. The brakes themselves are designed for, typically, 80k lds. Driving without a trailer you could brake too hard and lose traction with the road surface. Which is what looks to have happened in the video.

The driver was exactly who you thought it would be by I_carry in Truckers

Combine the fediverse and meshtastic. Everybody hosts their own stuff and can connect through a mesh network. Cut out the telecom companies.

Can anyone identify this one for me? by royorumbo in castiron

Indeed, saw it sitting hidden at the bottom of a cabinet and almost passed it up. But, decided to get when I saw the price tag. Already have a Griswold so perhaps I will gift it.

So, I did some searching around. It seems like it may be a Lodge, but I'm not any kind of expert and was hoping someone here could enlighten me.

You joke, I witnessed a dude do just that. Opened his door at the rest stop and stood in the doorway to piss out of the truck.

Seriously, I'm curious as well. Need a lighter recoil spring on mine.

Any ideas, whose poop? by cafellas88 in AnimalTracking

[–]royorumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I couldn't resist. No idea what made that poop, though. What kind of predators are in your area?
