Thread: For your amusement!

So, I go out to check the mail this morning, and too my surprise there is a massive gathering of utility trucks, fire trucks, and police cars just down the street from my house. So I went to check out the commotion and there in the middle of it all was a garbage truck on its side. Apparently the driver took the turn a little too fast and rolled it over. No one was hurt, but it made for a pretty hilarious scene.

Here is a picture. It is 1024 x 683, which is just right for most monitors. I actually got a lot of pictures. I got there before the two tow truck showed up to after they turned it back over. That was pretty cool. If you guys want to see more then I will post them into a gallery on my site for you to check out. Enjoy!

Sure can't blame slick pavement for that one! How fast do you have to go to tip one of those beasts over?

That is a good question, and I have no clue haha.

I imagine fully loaded one of those things is pretty top heavy. Let's face it, those things aren't exactly designed with handling in mind...

The area looks familiar. When I lived in Scottsdale I traveled all over Arizona fixing bakery equipment in all the different Safeways. I traveled down to Tucson quite frequently. what area of town is that?

If you check the google map on the main page, I am the only member in Tucson. If you go into satellite mode, the marker is placed right over my house where my office is.
