    Ron, I know you are a professional and all respect to you and your crew. I've been a LEO for 40 years and although the Police helped you if it was me I would have shut down the right hand lane way back. You had enough cones and enough space. Here is Australia when we have a stationary emergency service vehicles with red/blue lights flashing vehicles passing are restricted to 40 km/k (about 24 M/Ph) with a penalty of about $350 (Aud). I follow a lot of American tow channels, you seem to have so many more vehicles per population and so many more entitled and arrogant drivers. Wishing you all the best, you do a great job.

      IKR? Its super rare that we get to see Talon these days, ever since he became shop manager. I always enjoyed video's with Talon on scene, he's got a good sense of humor, and always finds the positive within the mess of negative. Last time I saw Talon working an uncomfortable job, was the box truck stuck in a ditch, during a flood. The way he walked that road, I thought he was fishing for something, turns out he was, box truck hehe. Great episode.

      Nice thing about states such as Missouri or even Illinois, since tow companies are considered as emergency services, there are more inter-agency trainings involved. Each department and company are familiar with each other and establishes mutual respect so they got each other's back.

    Driver did a great job keeping that thing under control and honestly pinning it against the guardrail was a smart move - kept it out of traffic and straight. Made your job a little more challenging. Great to see Talon in the field and Shelby showing why she’s an asset to your team. Prayers for continued protection for all of you on jobs like this. Love the new truck too!

    Seeing people driving along in the near lane, just completely ignoring your presence, just because it might cause them an INCONVENIENCE makes me so mad. I follow a few recovery channels - in the USA, and in the UK where I live - you folks do such critical work in such dangerous conditions - and all it takes to make you a WHOLE lot safer is to SLOW DOWN AND MOVE OVER - which I hope all watching these videos know to do. If I EVER see anyone in a shoulder - or on some of our terrible UK roads with NO shoulder, I always ALWAYS give some space!! As always, thanks for all you do to Ron and the team - we are hugely grateful, and we LOVE the videos!

  • @SB-cz9vo
    @SB-cz9vo 4 месяца назад +3

    I am just amazed that the right lane was left open. In comparable cases here in Germany, they (police and autobahn maintenance) tend to block off a lane next to the disabled vehicle as a safety zone and reduce the speed limit, usually to 80kph (~50mph), a good distance in advance.
    Some passes made me flinch just looking at the screen. I can't imagine feeling the pressure waves hitting me in such a situation over and over again. Hats off to you all and stay safe.

      Many states have that law, including Missouri (where this is being done). The laws state a driver must either move to the next lane or slow down. In a video a few years ago, Pratt was almost hit by a car, and the sheriff who was there went after the driver.

    • @TheRealTronGuy
      @TheRealTronGuy 8 месяцев назад +3

      All US states have a Move Over law, where if you come up on a vehicle with flashing lights (in Missouri, both police lights and flashing amber lights as you see on Ron's trucks), you must move over out of the adjacent lane if there is a lane to move to, and slow down. The details differ from state to state; Missouri doesn't specify how much you must slow down, while in Minnesota, you have to slow to no more than 20 MPH under the posted speed limit.

    I was a volunteer firefighter in Germany for 25 years. In my hometown, the fire brigade also had to take care of a section on the A73 (motorway 73). In spite of repeated warnings, some motorists simply drive past an accident site on the motorway like the disturbed. Sometimes you have to block a lane completely to be able to work unhindered. Always comes back healthy from such operations, because even here in Germany there are always accidents at emergency sites, in which car drivers or even truck drivers drive to secured accident sites.

    Great video. Saw the rotator rolling out at the same time. Wonder where it was going?

    I've watched quite a few different channels over the years with similar equipment that your crew runs, and often find that regardless of some crews having everything under the sun, it really boils down to experience of understanding how to rig a pull safely and effectively. It actually kind of surprises me and I'll find myself sitting here sometimes thinking.. hmm, I'd rig it a little different perhaps? But then come to find out the realities behind the reason you choose one spot over another & it still intrigues me and I'm not even a tow person. It's fun to see.

    You should look up TRISS vans, we have them here in Scotland to attend incidents. Lots of warning lights, reflective livery and a large flip up screen on the roof. Be absolutely perfect for traffic control plus could cary loads of cones and gear inside one and maybe have a second one kitted out as a Welfare Van inside to tow the Hazmat trailer, nice warm/cool spot with a kitchen and toilet to recharge on the big jobs. Super common here for road crews to have them

    Im glad the driver is safe and I’m shocked both front wheels are completely tucked underneath the truck but I’m ecstatic that a CVPI is still in service

    Man it's nearly unfathomable that someone could take a ride like that and NOT get hurt, but then again after 11 years I've seen all types of wrecks. It shouldn't be so shocking, but for as thankful as that driver was that he didn't get hurt I'm equally.... call it confused as to how they didn't. But all that really matters in the end is that fact that he didn't get hurt. And other than that, great work, great video, good to see talon again, and I love that new wrecker.
