You are right to steer clear of them whenever possible .

I’ve been seeing a lot of flat bed trucks coming down the canyon here with crushed cars. I don’t know what the source of the trucks or the crushed cars, but the trucks are in terrible mechanical condition and the cars are stacked and strapped very sloppily.

When I pass these trucks going down hill, their brakes stick, they are going slow, using their emergency flashers and driving erratically.

A month or so ago, one of them flipped in the canyon, stopping traffic for 6-9 hours. I have tried to find out the possible source of these dangerous trucks but to no avail. There is no way they are on the road unless someone is turning an eye to the safety problems.

Got to go to work.
