Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!!! Today, we see and hear the sirens going past our shop for a serious crash we will soon be called to. When we do receive the call, we are told it was a single vehicle crash with injuries. It wasn't until after I arrived on scene that I found out two vehicles had been involved. A minivan had driven UNDER a semi truck hauling a flatbed trailer!!! One of the strap winches ended up inside the car through the windshield!!! The driver survived, but it was an ugly scene, therefore, I decided to cut part of the video. I want to keep our channel's family friendly format. Anyway, once I arrive, I'm asked to go check with the driver of the semi while the police, fire, and EMS finish up with the minivan. I go to get our flagship Peterbilt 389X with a Miller Industries Century 1150R Rotator heavy towing and recovery unit and I call in Ethan and Terry to take over the minivan scene. There is a lot going on here. When you catch a glimpse of the damage to the minivan and see the damage to the flatbed trailer, you should get a better idea of how bad this situation could have been. Thank you, God, for blessing our family and our business. Watch as we continue to receive God's blessings. There is much more to come!!! I hope you enjoy this video!!!
We have a difficult and dangerous job and we take it very seriously, that doesn't mean we can't have fun and enjoy our work. We strive to be polite, professional, efficient, and safe...and still can have fun. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

Thank you for cutting out the not-so-family-friendly parts. As a (former) voluntary fire dept member myself, I've seen enough of those and really do not need a reminder. I'm always looking forward to those friday Pratt videos.

25 years ago I got called to a wreck on an icy interstate S curve. Semi had lost control and the car next to it ended up under the trailer, roof flat to the top of the dash. Car driver was an off duty State Patrol officer. He saw it coming and laid down in the seat just before the roof come down. Other than some scrapes, glass cuts and a bruised knee he walked away once we got the semi off the car and they cut him out. It's amazing what we drivers see over a couple decades in the business for sure. Some of it is definitely not for the weak. The only ones that ever got to me was if there were kids involved.

20 years ago, a cousin of mine was killed by a very similar accident (he ran under the trailer of a semi-trailer that was trying to u-turn on a road like this one). The person in the passenger car was *very* lucky to survive...I know exactly what kind of injury my cousin had and it was not a pretty way to go out. So thank you for cutting that part, looking at a car with that kind of damage would have been difficult for me.

@jonathanbair523 2 дня назад

As a kid I though I had a fear of heights, then I learned it was just the fear of falling.... long as I am at a spot with good footing or tied off. I could care less how high it is now... Like being in a tree to cut some dead branches off on a windy day. Going up that tree had me questioning things, but once i got tied off I could have stayed up there all day....

the brief looks we got of the car, so glad we did not get more of that part. That looked bad. Great work with the flatbed. Damaged parts always seem to love being difficult. Your rigger seems eager to learn and showed they were unsure about the initial hook placement. glad they admitted it and showed gratitude when corrected (confirmed they had the right sense about it.) May you all have many easy jobs after this.

Ron again I want to thank you for being respectful to the families of the accident victims. I disagree strongly with utube allowing accidents involving injuries or school buses being showed. Just this week Georgia State Police allowed a the posting of a fatal accident where they showed a close up of the victim with a trooper standing beside them. That is totally wrong and disrespectful.

@aperson9495 2 дня назад

If you're referring to the video I think you are involving a TRX, then I respectfully disagree - CRIMINALS involved in CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR do not deserve respect. Innocents and just straight up accidents, absolutely, but criminals involved in criminal behavior? Nope. How many criminals running from the police put an untold number of people in mortal danger, and don't care about doing so? It's so fortunate that that CRIMINAL hit a tree (or trees) instead of a minivan with a mother and her children on the way to school. That could have been insurmountably worse. Absolutely ZERO sympathy for 'him' or 'his' family from me. 'He' is where he belongs. And of course different channels have different goals. Ron's channel is just about recovery and such. The other channel is more related to police chases and other police interactions. And when police interact with criminals, you never know where that's going to go.

We had one here near Holt, FL that had a car totally under a semi trailer, going in the same direction as the truck. The driver was asleep and the co-driver was driving but as he told the officers was watching his phone. He got charged with manslaughter for not having his vehicle under control, the actual driver got charged for improper supervision of that co-driver (basically in-training).2 people died as a result of the accident.

@garydargan6 2 дня назад

The glimpse of the wrecked SUV triggered more than a few memories. I did a lot of driving in my younger days and saw a lot of things I'd rather not have. Also had a few very close calls of my own. My son is a long distance truck driver up to and including road trains. He has seen far worse than me. I've always worried about him every time I hear reports of truck accidents where he drives. I've driven with him and it really requires a lot of skill and attention to drive a truck and trailer combo. Far harder than driving a car. Its made worse by the stupid things other drivers do. He's decided to leave the industry after witnessing too much carnage. Stay safe and keep doing all the good that you do.

Had a family friend get in a similar wreck. Semi made an illegal lane change and her car ended up under the trailer. She barely had time to duck down to avoid losing her head. She was treated for minor injuries at the scene and released. She ended up being treated by her doctor for a minor leg injury but suffered no long term effects from it. There was a guardian angle looking out for her that day for sure.

At Komatsu we had a few 1950 yard cranes that we used to pickup items. Another guy with me was Ronnie and he was driving the crane. I was on top of the trailer hooking up a large rear end case for a mining truck. As the load was coming up Ronnie motioned to the driver to pull out leaving me with little room on the back of the trailer to get off safely. I had to jump down which was pretty high up. Later me and Ronnie exchanged some words. When the driver took off he left in a hurry and so I couldn't come down at my own pace. Ronnie was just laughing and I didn't see the humor.

@jdesaavedra0432 20 часов назад

The myth of speed causing almost all accidents downplays the role of driver inattention and poor driving habits causing the vast majority of accidents. As a career accident investigator (retired) I can count on one hand the number of losses causedpurely by speed. Even the speed related losses were primarily caused by lack of driver skill. Having two friends who survived similar accidents, this strikes close to home.

Just my opinion, speaking from several years of doing flatbed, I don't like using snap binders all that much. Ratchet binders are much safer. You have a great relationship with your employees Ron, not too many employers would have the attitude you have with your helper having a fear of heights! I'm being sincere, you don't find that too much! I have many years experience pulling flatbed, so I'm used to climbing on top of loads to tarp, in all kinds of weather. Lumber loads & foam insulation wrapped in plastic are the worst, when they have snow & ice on top. Hope the occupants of the passenger vehicle are OK? In my 32+ years driving a truck, I've seen far too many cars go under a trailer & it turn out very badly! I'm just thankful no one went under my trailer!
