Transport Trouble!! Multiple Vehicle Rollover!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- Hey guys! This was an accident we worked recently, where a Ram 3500 pulling a car carrier, loaded with a 2022 Ford F-250, lost control, and rolled over on a bridge.
Thankfully the driver was uninjured.
As a retired Truck Driver of 41 years, I can always sit on the grassy knoll and watch you men do your work ! I'm a new sub for sure.
Thanks for the sub!
The first tow truck driver seems to irritate the second one.
I'm truly grateful that you do care for the waterway. Great job...
I grew up in the outdoors. I try to always leave it better than I found it.
I don’t know who Donny is to you but I can’t say that I liked him at all, he lacked the ability to see the angles & predict what the Ford truck was going to do, his only good call throughout that stage of the recovery was about the Ford truck being caught on the guard rail.
His pulling angle was all wrong & he was mostly dismissive of any ideas other than his own.
The last major annoyance of this particular job was the guy in red, getting under your feet & trying to tell you how to do the job !
Still it all got sorted out, great assistance & advice from you Dustin, you are the kind of people I enjoy working with.
I am by no means a expert on car hauling but having watched Jason Kendal and The Load Mizer youtube channels that guy had that big truck in the wrong place. Gravity wins every time.
Definitely had the trailer loaded wrong.
Yep! I was searching waiting for a comment like this one. Should have had it loaded facing forward and the engine just in front of the trailer axles maybe 4-5 ft with the majority of the truck loaded over the trailer axles. Some live and learn, but some will live and never learn
I c this way too many times!
Yep the light cars on the top then the heaviest on the bottom
@@ryanvegas777thank you! I don’t ever plan on hauling a trailer like this but it’s useful info. I know not to load the rear.. ask me how lol
How he caught that stretch of road clear and didn't involve other vehicles is beyond me. That is one of our most traveled roads 24/7
Definitely got lucky he didn’t collect anyone else. That would have been a bad day.
@@Towtruck_Dustin It would suck for the vehicle he slid into, but as for damages, he would have been better off keeping it straight and sliding straight into another vehicle. You can tell by the way his rig and trailer landed that he wasn't going very fast when it rolled over, so If he had just locked the brakes and kept it straight I don't think he would have hit another vehicle that hard. Maybe 20 to 25mph. and doing that just the RAM would have been damaged. Well, and the vehicle he would have hit, But when it comes to spit-second actions, most of the time the body reacts and tries to turn and avoid hitting anyone else. Just glad nobody was hurt, that's what matters most.
I could hear the pain in your voice on that second pickup. Hook high, pull low.... one and done. Great video Dustin!
Thanks!!

I wouldn’t want my truck to be started after being on its side that dude is crazy. Also new subscriber! Good job Dustin
Thanks for the sub!!
Why not? Might as well blow the engine up too while you're at it to get that fully totaled check.
@@NeoMKthat ford was bought from the auction and was being transported to a client. It already had salvage title prior to the accident. So there is no real value to that truck. I can tell by the decal on the windshield. It was from a salvage auction. So there is no write off to speak of
@@The_North0that ford didn’t look seriously damaged so it easily brought $20k salvage title or not, i’d say that’s a little valuable.
Well, it will be useful for my next beer can as it is aluminum indeed.
Dustin, I enjoy watching your work. I see your commitment to good work!
Thanks you!! Glad you’re enjoying the content!!
The lack of intelligence of some people we share the road with is truly scary.
Great video as always, Dustin!
Thank You!
Wow great job as always Dustin!! Always make it look easy!!
Watching from France, and can say : awesome job, good team work also !!!
Start to follow you channel since few weeks and really love it 🤩
Take care
Regards from France
Wow, from France!
Thanks for the sub, and I’m glad you’re enjoying the content!
Driver's lucky he didn't go swimming . Really good recovery men .
Thank You!
Twin line wreckers always impress me, they punch well beyond their weight
That is impressive how the wheel lift truck flipped the pickup and trailer so easily
The twin line wreckers make easy work of stuff like that.
Not really the heavy of a pull, Pickup probably weighs 7-8k, trailer maybe 4 or 5 let's say somewhere between 10-15k for both together, Flipping it requires you to pull half of its weight so 5-8k pull. Wrecker probably weighs around 15 by itself so with the brakes locked it can pull 10k easily without sliding, winches will do probably 16-18k together with single lines.
Nice job Dustin.
I still think it is cool watching you use the wood to direct the vehicle while dragging it on the bed.
That’s one of my favorite tricks lol
@@Towtruck_Dustin A few weeks ago I was down to Bay City a few almost 2 weeks and never realized how close Angleton is but it looks close to the gulf. Great shrimp 🦐 and seafood like we have up here in New England
Ron Pratt with Midwest Truck, in Missouri recently responded to a similar roll over, only that guy was hauling a car and a Ford F350
I saw that. Was an interesting accident to watch.
Congrats on keeping your cool and not throwing that dipsh!t in the canal for be annoying and in the way!
😂😂😂
imm crying too this comment
Now this time I'm with you on this Donnie need to go back in training he don't like to listen to nothing this the second recovery I seen him do and damn you look frustrated every time retrain him immediately Dustin you did a good job this 👍👍
Thanks, but Donnie is the owner of the company actually.
Man just keep collecting your paycheck save your money and get you a towing company
Not to jump on the train, but he seems arrogant as hell. I've towed hundreds of vehicles many years ago. It's an art. Dustin your awesome sir. Doing a great job from what I can see.
This type of car carrier is illegal in the UK for this very reason so are artic couplings on non HGV vehicles as the trailer is bigger than the towing vehicle which is inheritently unsafe.
it’s only unsafe if you don’t understand how weight distribution works.
Dustin, Nice Job! You are on your game. I like the way you set up your truck. Very neat and organized. Donnie not so much. What is he allergic to WORK GLOVES? Where is his snatch block? He doesn't always listen to you. Yes winch down low. Didn't know truck was under the guard rail. Good pull by both of you. Keep up the good work. Donnie, PUT YOUR GLOVES ON!
Thank You!
Wtf Donny?!
We had a wreck on 105 just outside of Vidor TX. I watched from my porch and saw tow trucks with red and blues. It's very effective for slowing down traffic as I witnessed.
I’ve noticed a huge difference in how the traffic reacts to the red and blues over the ambers.
I grew up in Texas I didn't think other than emergency vehicles could run red and blue. Has that changed? I now live in Oklahoma and even road crews run red and blue. You never know until you tried to them while they are just driving down the hwy. I do understand wreckers. Also would be fine with red and blues on while actively working in a construction zone. I think people are less likely to yield when every vehicle out there has red and blues. Just my thoughts. I also used to be a paramedic in OKC. Couldn't get people to move no matter what.
Well done, I was happy to see you take charge & reroute the snatch block to the pass. side & shorten the snatchblock chain.. I was literally talking to my computer screen saying What are you doing? when he rigged with the snatch on the close drivers side & left the chain long.. that was bad enough.. then he raised the boom & literally put the pull point right back where it was when straight off the boom sheave...chain it short & pull low.... BTW... when ya get one that slides & doesn't wanna grab to roll... sometimes a simple floor mat under a tire will give enough to grab until the rubber sidewall catches.. but if the roads are icy & there's nothing to bite... take a chain and zigzag it in front of the tires on the pavement... when you apply even a little pull, it makes the tire sidewall bite into the chain links & starts to transfer slide into downward grip until the tire grabs.... simple but effective. Another trick to control the pull angle...since you had one winch line fail during this...down to a single line pull... if you have a chain bridle rigged up on the vehicle to a single winch point.... if you need to keep the winch hook in a certain place instead of "skipping" to the side of the chain bridle as ya pull.... take the grab hook from a chain & hook it into the bridle you're hooked to... then the winch can't pull past the grab hook & allows the pull to stay where you want it...allows you to steer/direct your pull... all with single line
Some good info there. Thanks for that.
Every time i see one of these hotshot drivers with 3 new super dutys.
I think, oh yeah, what could go wrong.
The issue is that they leave one on the highest point in the ramp. EXTREMELY high centered. Just a probable accident waiting to happen. Just pure laziness. After they unload the others, they should back the last vehicle to the farthest back on the trailer.
Yeah and these are the guys using a gooseneck ball....hahahahah! This guy had a fifth wheel....still went over.
It sounds like Donnie is not taking care of his truck if the line was about to snap . Equipment is only if the driver/owner ( if Donnie owns the truck ) takes care of it just look at your flatbed it's in nice shape bc you take care of it .
So when you comment on this remember it's a machine not human . A machine is only good if the person takes care of it .
I would love to have a truck like Donnie it would handy up here .
The roll over occurred because he put the F250 too high on the trailer. It was a 4 wheel drive, lifted I think, and he put it over the bed of the Ram. He should have put the F250 low on the trailer. That was too much weight, too high in the air and on a gooseneck ball that pivots. Recipe for a roll over. When he made a turn, the F250 took the entire rig over.
That my favorite truck is a f250
I drove semis for 65 years. You guys are awesome 👌 keep up the good work .
Thank you!
Carroll Watson: May I ask where you drove? I Am insulting you, But It does not sound as if you have traveled much further them maybe 50 miles from home. What Companies have you pulled for? I can name many I have carried their loads. I was a Contract Trucker and if I could load it and keep it contained I hauled it. Even to Alaska as Mexico City. I also get a kick out of these bad ass Truckers who haul LYL and are home every night and think they measure up to driver's who live in their Trucks to support their Children by what the haul. and not the stops. I have done it all. Even Manure and Barn Yard waist materials for Fertilizer when I was young. Now how many Pissed off Yellow and CFI Drivers are going to curse me out?
@@BitterDemo I like to know how old he is to drove for 65 years. If started at 18 He drove till he was 83.
@Raymond F. Pittam I was in the navy ( equipment operator) eleven years. I've driven in Vietnam and Spain. Discharged in October of 1965. Since then I have driven in all the states except the north east I have a 45 year safe driving award from A. T. A. And two safe awards ( belt buckles). I retired 7 days before my 84th birthday.
@Raymond F. Pittam I have driven for General Foods truck fleet. K Lines Inc. SYSTEMS TRANSPORT out of Spokane. Hauled oil pipe in Wyoming, Colorado, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Texas. Also drove for Watkins and Shepherd out of Missoula. The last 6 years I hauled produce over much of the U. S. I don't tell B. S.
You asking the tow truck if he can drive it home is like asking him can i take 1000$ dollars from you 😂
That’s just him not wanting to have to tell the bossman he needs to get the truck out of impound lol
That’s a lot of money on their sides there. Hate to be company to write that check
I'll hate to be the owner of the Ford and get that call.
I'm guessing about $200k worth. What a day for that guy.
The insurance company?
😊😊😊😊😅😅😅😅😅😅😊
Just late model junk, nothing to get excited about.
Awesome job guys Very professional.
The Goonzquad would love both them trucks lol
Man, he got lucky when he rolled. That truck he was hauling had not rolled off on to the pavement. You guys would be fishing it out the water. So close. Glad no one was hurt. 😊
That was a really nice ford
It was a stolen recovery too. On its way to the owner. Quite sad.
Goood to see the police blocking traffic while the tow-truck drivers do their job! We have had two or three killed because they had no blocking. But they are classified as emergency vehicles and the penalty are good but it doesn’t bring them back!! People drive so crazy and don’t care who gets in their way,we have had several deputy’s hit and some killed !!
Great strap and chain on wrecker i use all chain and 2 straps on my personal trailer I don't feel comfortable just using straps over tire
I use that and 4 extra methods of securing vehicle.... with safety chain front and rear .. awesome video thanks for posting 👍
Given the fact the rolled over truck didn't move as much as a millimeter, I'd say strapped tires are just fine.
@@Charlesbjtown i don't take chances
@quagmiredavis4117 You kinda missed the point. If a flipped over vehicle, is still held in place by the straps.... that SHOULD tell you that you AREN'T "taking chances". Do you also drive 40 mph in the passing lane, on a wide open interstate/freeway, to be "extra safe"?
😝Send Dustin not Donny!!!🤣
2nd issue that no one addresses with these wedge haulers. A lot of them use the factory Ram 5th wheel plate thinking its sturdier than a gooseneckball. Its a dual pivoting 5th wheel plate specifically designed for hauling RV's. It allows just as much movement as a gooseneck ball.
@George Thank You for pointing out the #1 issue. I figured it was obvious by the way the truck was loaded on the trailer that this driver was a rookie and had no clue what he was doing. And clearly you've never seen or used a factory Ram 5th wheel plate either. But you're right, I have no clue what I'm talking about.
Feel bad for the hotshotter, destroyed a nice truck. and losing money.. I hope for the best, a total headache. Hopefully insurance is quick
The bad part, the truck was a stolen recovery. It was on its way back to the owner. Was in perfect shape prior, but they lost the keys, which is why they were transporting it.
Great teamwork! Those ford pick ups have a neutral override behind the shifter like the dodge had. I may have a video on it. 💪💪💪
I wondered about that, but didn’t take the time to look
@@Towtruck_Dustin it should be like this ruclips.net/video/jHV5NXS9jCk/видео.html
Great job and thank for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Bro… you are a true professional! You don’t even have to think about it you just do it and most importantly you take Saftey seriously
Thank You!
Great work, that was a big one, enjoyed watching.
Yeah that was a pretty good job there
It’s always a blessing when nobody gets hurt
I never understood why people would think it’s smart to load these big trucks up front dude was empty he could’ve easily put it near the rear of the trailer which would’ve decreased the probability of the truck flipping that F250 is in a dangerous location to heavy to be on the nose of that trailer plus that truck is getting so much air that’ll bring your MPG down too
Laziness. They don't want to shuffle the deck as they make picks and drops.
13:25 Is this the driver?
What a stupid comment to start that damaged truck!
That’s the driver. Almost every rollover I work, that the driver walks away from, someone asks me to start it, and I always tell them no.
Lol, I'm watching for half the video thinking, why does the background look so familiar 🤔. It's definitely not missouri. Where I live. But it seems like I have just driven in the area not too long ago. Then I rewind video and see freeport on firetruck and Clute on ambulance. I realized it's by my moms in Texas, and i was just there in june😂
That’s awesome lol
I’m following you almost for two years😊😊
It's really sad when someone thinks they're so smart they never listen this truck should have been upright long long time ago
Probably a 30 foot drop to water and there's a knee-high guardrail on that bridge. Guess they will wait for someone to go over it and die and then they will put up a proper barrier. Amazing he didn't end up in the drink.
Well he surely strapped the truck down very well.
One hundred percent teamwork in getting that rig up and towed, Thank goodness the driver was okay he could have ended it up in the water
Ron must own the biznezz.
That driver must of been speeding and or on the phone...
How does one manage to wreck like that...????
Great job guys... I'm glad i found your channel and subscribed...
The trailer was loaded improperly. The F250 should have been down towards the axle, not the highest point of the trailer.
you're very good at your job stay safe 🐾💗
Thank You!
Legally the RO of the vehicle can be in and around the vehicle to gather, etc. Trailer should've been separated from the truck.
Hieeee glad your being called in the best of the best right here y'all
I owned a transport company with a dually and wedge trailer......I found out quick don't put anything heavy on top by itself becuase the trailer is tipsy....luckily I never rolled over.......there having problems flipping that ford becuase he's on an angle he should be doing a straight pull directly across.
I agree. I’d have definitely done a few things differently myself.
Great video Dustin!
Thanks!
Rollovers, I have done my fair share and still get them. A lot more now. As a fellow tower from Michigan.
Good video. I was worried your cable would snap while flipping that second truck. 😬
Probably would have if we didn’t catch it.
How do you flip like that ?
Improperly loaded trailer.
Fortunately the initial report that the rollover was on the railroad tracks was incorrect.
That power joke crumoled like a tin can
Hey guys they used to be a tow truck driver to I wish I was still doing it because he was making a lot of money for doing it are used to work for A company that I heard it when I took of business but they still have a company but it’s in Los Banos are used to go on long haul rigs with the big holler and drove the small trucks in town I do miss it
Work safe those winch cables have seen better days 😊
Damm they got luck the guard rail could stop the ram
That guy really wanted to get the truck started. There's bigger concerns buddy, settle it down.
He just didn’t want it to go to impound so his mess up wouldn’t seem as bad
GLAD TO SEE YOU STRAPED DOWN ALL 4 CORNERS
Always. I have many different kinds of straps so that I can have all 4 points.
This is why i loove dodge duallys awsome trucks
Thank you good sir
Thank You! Glad you’re enjoying the content!
@@Towtruck_Dustin yes I love your content and learned so much!
Keep on being great!
I’m 2 years in this industry learning everyday!
Can u rev the engine
Seriously how many of these trucks need to flip before these hot shot drivers learn? You cant have a heavy ass truck on the top with no other load on the deck. The cops need to start handing out massive tickets for these horribly unbalanced loads. Pure laziness.. unstrap the stupid truck and back it up over the axles and this nonsense is all avoided.
That red shirt is a bit of a annoyance there. “Turn it on hue hue it be funney huuuh” billy bob cleatus shout stay out of the way of men working.
I am amazed at the size of the trailers US pick-up trucks can pull!
If only the drivers knew how to load their trailer.
American muscle
Nice trick put blocks of wood under the wheel to Steer the wheel
Thank You!
That’s one of my favorite tricks.
What model auto loader is on that truck?
Miller Vulcan I believe.
Great video
Top heavy probably made rollover easier all front weight of trailer resting on 2/5/16 th ball easy to lose control
He should have had a Ford pulling that trailer instead of a damned ole dodge
Very True.
Buen video Dustin, tú compañero tiene que practicar más para darle la vuelta a los coches, demasiado tiempo para darle la vuelta a un coche
The driver wanting you to start the truck has no idea how an engine transmission etc can be damaged something or something could be punctured and it shows😐😑 guy can drive hotshot but doesn’t know much about the equipment he operates/hauls..
Almost every rollover I’ve ever worked someone has asked me to start the vehicle lol
How did the driver manage to do that ? Dam what a mess !!!!
Loaded the trailer improperly, load was too top heavy and it rolled going around the corner.
Bad loading, the ford truck suppose to be close to the trailer axles, otherwise the wind will blow you from behind because the rear trailer axle is light and empty
That Ford flipped everything over lol
When rolling the truck the trailer was carrying, why did the tow truck operator park beside the yellow middle line instead of further to the other side of the road. Where he was, he was trying to drag the truck forward and not simply pull from the top and roll it onto its wheels. He had the whole road, and he should have parked more square on with the vehicle, not almost 90 degrees to, and 10 yards in front of it. As it was it took 3 separate hook ups instead of just the one.
See they way they finally rolled it over, thet truck was square to the vehicle, and it was as simple as 2 hooks over the frame and pull it. He originally parked the tow truck in the worst position. I hope he learns from this. Poor operator.
Not how I would have setup or rigged it either.
I like how Ole dude that basically dropped 200k on the ground tell a man how to do his job lol!
I thought the driver was taken away in the meat wagon.
No, he was just getting checked out. He was the one I told to step away after we rolled it back over.
@@Towtruck_Dustin Any reason why he didn't load his trailer correctly?
The truck didn’t have keys, so I’m assuming they probably loaded it with a fork lift, and he didn’t know where to load it properly.
@Towtruck_Dustin Put it as far forward as possible to load other vehicles or it's the last to come off....just guessing
why do these car hauler guys insist on leaving a single vehicle up top. They're supposed to bring it to the back of the ramp.
This one didn’t have keys, so he probably didn’t know how, or didn’t want to move it down.
your sign paiter forgot some words on the belly board 11 " All others PAY CASH "
Those trailers are awful for this.
Especially if you don’t know how to load one.
I subbed you do amazing jobs
Thank you!
This is definitely from lying on your resume!!!!! Why the hell was that f250/350 on the highest point of the trailer?!?!?;🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
No more updates on the land you purchased in Apple Valley ? I live in Apple Valley myself , near Kiowa Rd
I am dizzy from trying to focus my eyes as he moves his head cam so fast ha ha ha ha
Good job.
When did cummins a engine manufacture start making trucks ?🤔
Someone that does not check his cables needs to be fired
He owns the company.
Nice and that looks scary
Man, all I know is I was watching those cheerleader girls on the tik tak and I whipped the little feller out and before I knew it BLAM! I was goin ass over tea kettle! Guess I need to phone the dealership and tell ‘em I lost another one, dang it!
The bad part was, the F250 was a recovered stolen truck, and was on its way back to its owner. Was in otherwise perfect condition prior to the wreck.
That was a fine job on that recovery !! I m glad to see y all clean up the pieces and mess !!!!! These lazy ass recovery drivers here just pick up the vehicle and leave everything else laying in the road !!!! They leave the glass the plastic pieces and bumper covers and sometimes even the hoods and deck lids !!!
Just laziness at its finest !!! No pride in their job at all !!!!
Yeah that kinda stuff wouldn’t fly around here lol
