Remember to secure stuff on your vehicle

[SoSlowDx]

Driving on "the Deerfoot" today behind this truck that had wooden planks on its roof/box. I never like to drive behind trucks or semis so I moved to the middle lane from the left. Probably 2 secs after I switched a long plank of wood just flipped off the truck. almost hitting this van, which could of been my car. Lucky it was not and I didn't even want to think what could of happen if it did anyway.

I got the company of the truck and going to call them for sure.

So there are broken pieces of wood on Deerfoot North.



So yeah make sure you secure your stuff especially on Deerfoot! Thanks.

They swerved out of the way just in time. I just saw the wood flipped off the truck and in my mirror saw pieces of wood on the road.

Yikes, another one of these threads. I believe 88CRX has had his share of experiences with this on deerfoot as well...

I was following some dumbass in a van with a little homemade trailer full of empty cans in garbage bags and one of them fell off
and I hit it with the corner of my bumper but it didn't break. I layed on the horn and the guy was just retarded and didn't stop for a while and when he did he just stopped the van and ran to get the bag and jut ignored me because I was pissed and I guess he was scared to say anything, but my van was alright, no problems so we just left.

I saw one of those crappy trailer thta people make out of teh old bed of a pickup. Well this one was maybe 20 years old and as I was driving behind it the wheel came off and started bouncing down teh highway at abuot 100 clicks. Crossed teh median but rolled to a stop before it got into oncoming traffic.

Funny thing is that a large exhaust is good fro a fine, but these homemade craptastic DIY contraptions are all over the place.

Moral: Deerfoot = gong show hillarity on all levels.
