Tool Truck Flipped Over

[Contender54]

An article in the paper said a "box truck" flipped over today.
I thought people on this site might be interested in the type of "box truck."
Poor guy.
This happened 30-40 miles north of New Orleans.

Hope the driver is OK.

When I was a kid, I drove by a SO truck that had gone onto its side on the highway and then into the wire guardrails. back of the truck was shredded and stuff was strewn everywhere.
There were cops all over keeping people from pulling over and trying to snag up tools out of the grass.

I pray he is ok as well. I've always wondered what happens, if the tools on the ceiling were to fall on the drivers head.

Wow how sad. I hope he's alright. That's a lot of concentrated mass that probably came crashing down.

If you look at the link, his arms are crossed under his own strength. So that's a good sign.

Whew.

A wrench or a couple hundred flying about could cause trouble.

Brother had wreck and went spinning. All those supplies he carried became flying debris.
