Me hitting boxes on my way to work - 562loosenoodle_imp - 03-11-2019

On my way to work. I normally avoid being behind pickups. Anyway, here is the video. After I hit it I pulled over and ask the driver to be careful when packing his truck.

Looks like they were empty and thank gawd for that! That'll wake you up in the morning though!

They looked like empty boxes fortunately and at least the guy pulled over.

I have witnessed a lot of garbage blowing out of trucks and folks never even stop. Where do these idiots that constantly put coffee cups and other junk in the back of their trucks think it goes? Some magic recycling fairy?

I hope, you are OK
Idiots are all over the world, too many on the roads

Be thankful it wasnt a ladder or wheel barrow

Glad you and your bike are ok. Sometimes the freeways are like war zones!

Managed to avoid similar situation in france on my cb500 years ago, an inflatable boat was tied to the roof of a car and was flipping up at the front, i changed lanes and saw the inflatable leave the car and land in the lane i just left.

Lesson; recognize other's lack of good sense in time, practice anticipation and avoidance control.

Thanks very much for posting the video!

Could have been very ugly, 562. I’m glad it wasn’t.

Is this how you’d like the video to look?




I don’t know why it’s so small.

On the right of the compose box is an icon that looks like a TV. It has a number of options for video sources.
