Wow, the trucker was doing 65+ and they passed him like he was sitting still. Slow down people, I see this almost every time I go camping. I had a guy pulling a camper last weekend riding my .. so close I couldn't see his TV. I was doing 66 MPH on cruise and he rode me too close for miles, it looked like I was pulling tandem trailers. Idiots.....

Why? The CG isn't going anywhere, you're never going to be late for it, just S L O W down. I'm seeing more and more of this these days. Guys flying with a TT, Fiver, etc., there's just no need for it. Rather get there 'late', then not at all.

He looks like he was loaded improperly as well. Looked like a lot of weight on the hitch rack to me. Speed and improper loading is a recipe for disaster.

That gave me chills. I bet he didn't even have a WDH.

Geez. Little too much trailer there. I'm also surprised people just fly on by that saw the wreck.

Doesn't surprise me at all. A couple years ago we were driving on HW20 between Sisters and Bend Or. Saw a guy laying in the ditch, suffering from heatstroke. We pulled over and called 911. Given how busy the road was that day, I bet several hundred cars passed him by, not one stopped, until us.
