I appreciate you showing (1) accountability to the landowner and (2) the cleanup all the way through. I appreciate you didn’t say “that’s his problem with his insurance”, but just fixed it. That’s integrity.
It was a miracle that no one was hurt. Roads with no shoulder is definitely a challenge to drive on. It definitely requires lots of careful attention to drive on this type of roadway. The cleanup looks really great when clean up was complete.
If one drives on to the shoulder, sometimes you're better off driving further off in order to stay upright. You can always tow a rig out of the field, but fixing a rollover is pretty tough
Glad drivers ok, in all honesty that truck doesnt look all that bad. That twist mostly came out when they rolled her back over. I towed for 20 years, hated frameless dumps. Ive seen a lot worse come back than that. She needs a cab/hood/sleeper. Without seeing closely, the frame looks pretty good. The axle mounts will be the tell tale when you get it back to the shop tho.
Back when I was a young man I had the same thing happen. We met a State truck that wouldn't move over because the deep irrigation ditches were so deep. Once it starts all you can do is watch and hold on! When the load starts shifting your just along for the ride. No one hurt seriously is a good day!
I'm impressed by the rapid response from getting the rig out all the way through final cleanup! Well done! Some crop gets lost I'm sure you'll make it worth the loss but everyone's alive and safe.
Just at the end of the day, the driver is lucky to walk away from that. That could’ve turned out way worse I’m subscribing to your channel just ran across it. Hang in there, man.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
That was a tough video.I’m glad the driver is ok, doesn’t do much for your loss of equipment but at least the driver will be ok according to all reports. Thank god no one else was injured. Thank you for sharing. I hope you’re ok & wish you well. Dave D. from Maine.🇺🇸
I was happy that no one was hurt. Being in a semi truck wreck isn't a good experience and will be with you the rest of your life. They sewed my left ear back on, stapled my head back together, because you could see my skull, then put me in a neck brace after my semi truck accident. I'm so thankful no one was seriously injured. To God be the glory!
Glad the driver is ok. Excellent job on the cleanup. FYI, I am not saying this is what happened but we had some of our drivers disconnecting the drive-cam units years ago.
first off im glad the driver is ok ,you can replace the unit its sad but its just material ,i hope they dont fire him because you got a good and better driver now hes seasoned and will not do this again had a driver do the same thing ,insurance said get rid o him i fault till they let me keep him ,best driver i got now ,anyway good luck brother ,and i commend you for putting this out there ,hell of a man
Thankfully God was with your driver and you are a class act with your company! You alway seem to being the right thing weather the situation is good or bad! I wish I lived closer because I would like to work for you, thx for the video Justin, take care🙏🏻
I put a trailer in the ditch once. The super singles slid off the road in fresh snow as I turned onto a narrow street. Luckily all that happened was the plastic mud flap on the front drive axle broke. Still not a good day.
Standing around those wrecker cables under load is dangerous!! Wrecker operators rarely weight the line midway in case the line or connection breaks. That cable breaking loose will fly through the air and cut through steel, let alone human bodies.
@yanevaknow1017 I was a tow operator for 12 years and definitely saw some winch cables let go being used less than their rated capacity. Usually it gets a little "wow" in it from getting tangled and crushed on the winch drum. This is where it will later break on a hard pull. I always tried to keep mine wound straight but even then sometimes if the cable is side loaded it will pile up on the side of the drum before you notice. The one heavy wrecker I ran the winches were slightly misaligned with the direction of the cable. That one would get messed up all the time and it was a pain. It piled up and broke the air release off it once while i was winching a highway plow. It can break by being against something sharp you didn't see in time too. Just keep out of the direction it will fly and it's pretty safe. If I was doing a hard pull and they were letting traffic flow I'd get the cops to stop traffic if I thought it was getting risky.
Justin the silver lining is that the driver is ok and nobody else was hurt! That truck is not totaled I have redone them a lot more damaged… but I’m still praying for the driver and you and your family! Be strong my friend god will guide you through this! One door closes and another one opens…
Got a cousin in the logging industry that lost a complete rig just like this about 6 months ago. Driver momentarily took his eyes off the road and in a blink of an eye, he was on his side, just like this one. Driver came out slightly bruised but was extremely luck considering he was loaded. Miracles still happen every day!
Glad driver was able to get out safe, but yes, reasonably straight piece of road, with a slight rise on a gorgeous day by the looks of it... you would have to ask yourself, how ? some kind of distraction by the looks probable... It just goes to show though just how easy it can all go pear shaped...
Good to see the drivers ok. I laid a truck over when i first started driving. I was turing onto freshour from 488 in hopewell during a snow storm. I couldn't see the edge of the road and had 69k lbs of milk on the trailer. The trailer tires slid down into the ditch and took the truck over. Lucky i wasnt injured and the truck and trailer were able to be fixed.
I just wanted to say thank you for being a person of integrity You seem to be a very responsible business owner Thanks for sharing I am Scott on the west coast of Canada 🇨🇦
For as bad as this is and how bad the truck looks, to know that the driver is ok is a blessing. Just remember that God is with you and was with the driver as well. You, your family, employee's and especially the driver will be in my prayers.
May our Lord always be with all of your drivers and you as well sir . Please always remember to drive safely wherever you go. I thank the Lord every day I survived my roll over accident . Because it could have ended very badly for me. Again May our Lord be with you always sir and all of your drivers .
An unfortunate incident, but your effort is very commendable, good that NOBODY hurt, shame the Peterbilt suffered serious stuff,but in traffic incidents its expected, your commentary and videoing excellent.
Sometimes it is better to not fight the shoulder and simply steer into the ditch, should have remained upright. That is a tough decision, I never had to make.
I know its terrible and my heart skipped a beat even seeing the video thumbnail, but Im so glad everyone was ok. Even tho its a huge loss my thought is at least it wasnt the newest most expensive rig. Still horrible for sure!
You are a good owner for going out there yourself and then going to the farm to see who has the crops . I know lots of owners send everyone but there self
I feel your pain seeing that truck, however I hope there is insurance what will give some money back and no human loss what is more important than a truck...but I understand your feelings watching it.
Glad everything worked out okay, the number one reason for vehicles leaving the road is distracted driving, on that road with no shoulders it could happen in the blink of an eye doing 55 mph like it did.
I survived a 360 roll over loaded with gasoline and diesel fuel. I had 6500 gallons of gas and 2000 gallons of diesel fuel. I didn’t lose anything not even from my running tanks of the tractor.
I still see alot of good parts on the tractor. Steer tires, Motor, Transmission, Bumper, Rims. You can recover some money there. You weren't a Peterbilt guy anyways.
I believe I’ve watched only one other video of yours, not because I don’t enjoy your content, but because I don’t really watch a lot of RUclips. I am subscribed though. I’m the owner and CEO of a pretty large contractor company out of Alaska, originally my father was an east Kentucky coal hauler in which there is no future in anymore. I have 32 trucks in total, every one W900L Kenworth’s, and 379-389 Peterbuilts. I hate to see a fellow small company owner lose a truck like that, I know I sure have lost my fair share of trucks and drivers as well. There is nothing worse then going to a friend and employees house to tell their family that daddy is never coming home again. Trucks we can replace, but people are irreplaceable! I’m sure you’ll replace that truck with something just as good or better, you and I have share the same passion for them old trucks like that! I’m sure you’ll be fine, the important thing is that daddy got home safely, drivers are very human just like us, they make mistakes, and sometimes in this business the smallest of mistakes can result into the total loss of a truck, trailer, and all to often their own lives. Use this as a wake-up call for your other employees, it happened to this guy, it very easy can happen to you too!
A 2 lane with no shoulder... Glad the driver is OK, and no injuries for other drivers. A hard row to hoe but could've been so much worse. Outstanding clean-up effort by Flint Creek! Mechanized the salt removal and laid down soil! A kick in the nuts but hell, insurance companies don't just get to rake in money right?.. ...or DO they?
Great job doing the right thing and cleaning up the farmer's field really well and even bringing in some new top soil. That was a stand up thing to do and says a lot about Flint Creek Transport as a company!! Keep up the great work! I'm glad your driver wasn't hurt but he sure has some explaining to do and I have a feeling you won't be happy with this explanation. I'm no expert but from what I can see the road turned and he didn't. Looks like he wasn't paying attention and drove it right into the ditch.
No matter what happened or whose fault, thank God no one was killed or seriously injured.
"God" had nothing to do with it
@@jeffreycairns767you must lead a miserable life .
It could've been worse assbite@@jeffreycairns767
Don’t blame God because the driver is too stupid to drive into the ditch
For sure!!!! Def blessed !!!
I appreciate you showing (1) accountability to the landowner and (2) the cleanup all the way through. I appreciate you didn’t say “that’s his problem with his insurance”, but just fixed it. That’s integrity.
😅😅
I'm very glad that your driver is ok. A truck can be replaced. A driver cannot be replaced.
Right !!!
Truth be told, both can be replaced. l'm glad the driver is ok.
In the Uk a driver can be replaced , most big companies don’t give a shit about anything except money
@@alexrobinson2281 how can a human be replaced you goofball
@@stevenb132tsb no a human can't be replaced!

Let’s get serious
If the driver wasn’t trying to cover up his screw up, he would’ve drove out into the Beanfield
If one drives on to the shoulder, sometimes you're better off driving further off in order to stay upright. You can always tow a rig out of the field, but fixing a rollover is pretty tough
Awesome cleanup job. Never seen a company clean up a crash site like that before.
Glad drivers ok, in all honesty that truck doesnt look all that bad. That twist mostly came out when they rolled her back over. I towed for 20 years, hated frameless dumps.

Thanks 👍

Brings back alot of memories of rolling one almost 2years ago. The crew did a great job! My sympathy goes out to guys! God is good!!!
Standing around those wrecker cables under load is dangerous!! Wrecker operators rarely weight the line midway in case the line or connection breaks. That cable breaking loose will fly through the air and cut through steel, let alone human bodies.
Don't stand in the direction they will go and you'll be ok
They pretty much know what their stuff is rated for…….ijs

Sorry for your loss any equipment is a tuff loss
Happy Driver is Ok !!
Great recovery and clean-up too !! All the best Jason ✌️🇺🇸
As long as the driver's okay the truck and trailer can be replaced to insurance will take care of the beans
I’m diggin the new chop top look. But in all seriousness I’m glad nobody was hurt could have been much worse.
Glad the driver is ok.if you all keep. It you can part it out .
Great work on taking care of the farmers land involved
Thank you jesus for saving that guy be careful you can not be careful enough God bless you and your entire family and crew everyone involved
You're delusional
Good karma and the grace of God kept your driver safe. The equipment can be replaced. Amazing job restoring the land
Hang in there buddy. Good job on the clean up. I have never seen anyone take the match care about someones field before. Awesome.
Thanks 👍
I worked with a very large fleet. I always told the drivers to stay in the ditch and try to get it all the way in. Do not try to drive it out.
Yes...instinct is to try to get back on the pavement. But, it is better to be upright out in the field.
You had a good looking truck driver. I am glad the Lord was with you and you survived the accident.
gotta love them no shoulder highways
Justin the silver lining is that the driver is ok and nobody else was hurt!
That truck is not totaled I have redone them a lot more damaged… but I’m still praying for the driver and you and your family! Be strong my friend god will guide you through this! One door closes and another one opens…
Justin Silver lining is that we just paid for his brand new truck by looking at this video
RUclips doesn’t pay that well
Sorry to see Justin i have been watching you for months now 😊YOUR A STAND UP GUY 😊
Thankyou
Good news no one was hurt and a lesson learned. Stay safe.

I’m a semi truck driver and drifting off the road looks like distracted driving was involved. Thats one expensive day for you Justin.
Sad day at flintcreek, but no injuries no other vehicles or lives , ptl!!! Beans salt tractor trailer all replaceable!!!
For sure
Wow man. That's a tough one! I admire you for taking on all those pressures. Reality says it's not all a gravy train. Just like this
Drive was blessed 🙏🏿
Thxs 4 sharing even tho its an HORRIBLE ACCIDENT
Wow 👀 glad your driver is OK when I had a situation like that I used it as a tax write ✍️ off
That's right Justin and God won't give you more than you can't handle!!!
Keep your delusions to yourself, please
That’s right !!!
Tough day man ...glad no one got hurt. Nice job on the clean up, your guys were on that!
Hell hate that for you Justin glad the driver is good looks like the yard is getting a parts truck shame was a pretty fine ride
Trucks are replaceable, glad the driver is going home to his family. You are still the gold standard for owners.
Thankyou for the kind words
best news was driver was good and no one else involved/injured. truck can be replaced. prayers to you all.
😪😪😪😪🖤🖤Hope he wasn't on his phone, camera will tell the story.
Sounds like they have Lytx or some other system and it won’t lie.
Glad driver was able to get out safe, but yes, reasonably straight piece of road, with a slight rise on a gorgeous day by the looks of it... you would have to ask yourself, how ? some kind of distraction by the looks probable... It just goes to show though just how easy it can all go pear shaped...

Sorry Justin. Never lost one thankfully but did have a towing company also and saw the heartache.
Glad driver is ok. Iron is replaceable..
You should get a vacuum truck to vacuum up the salt.
Only problem is the insurance rate will go up. Glad the driver is okay.
Self insured
I’ll be touching on this ….
Good everyone is okay. We all get days like this and it's tough.
Sometimes it is better to not fight the shoulder and simply steer into the ditch, should have remained upright. That is a tough decision, I never had to make.
I can't wait get out trucking .. ! 20 yrs. Crazy out here today.

I wonder what the drivers was doing i hope you got cameras on all the trucks damn and that's a nice pete 379

Stay STRONG 💪🏾 & BLESSED 🙏🏾🫱🏻🫲🏾🫶🏾💪🏾🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊💯📢📢📢📢📢📢📢📢📢 Mr Justin & Crew
That happened to me a couple years ago. Now the insurance company won't touch me. Be careful guys.
The depth of ditch wouldn't have been an issue if there was a shoulder on this road. Here in Michigan most of our two lane asphalt has shoulders.
I survived a 360 roll over loaded with gasoline and diesel fuel. I had 6500 gallons of gas and 2000 gallons of diesel fuel. I didn’t lose anything not even from my running tanks of the tractor.
