Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching. In this video we are called to expedite to a scene where a semi driver failed an attempt at a U-turn on a major roadway in a local city, jack-knifed his truck, buried it in mud, and blocked over two lanes of the road. Kenny, Ethan, and I respond with our Peterbilt 389X with a Miller Industries, Century 1150R Rotator towing and recovery and our traffic control unit 16 to help clear the roadway and get this driver out of trouble . The trailer was fully loaded and down hard on the drive tires. The dolly legs, landing gear to some, hit the pavement hard. That, along with the truck in the mud brought the whole combination to an abrupt halt. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

A maneuver like that with a loaded tractor trailer, doesn't even remotely qualify as a "mistake". That is 100% pure incompetence. A truck driver should know that you NEVER try to turn around on a steep down slope, in the grass and especially in wet conditions.

@The_JEB Год назад

If you are gunna be the guy thata gunna do a u turn with a 53ft trailer on a highway, just be the guy that takes up every lane possible to do so instead of being the one that shuts it all down

I've had to be towed a few times going up Snoqualmie Pass and Mt. Hood. I lost traction on both even with 100,000lbs. Both times by the time the tow got there it became a white out. They saved my ass. Mistakes happen especially the first time I got stuck when state patrol stopped like 10 of us trucks because they were clearing an accident and got all 10 of us stuck. Ended up having to shut down the pass because of us. I have so much respect for these guys!

@stellarproductions8888 Год назад

I was just thinking about the stolen BMW in the woods video. Back then Ethan did a lot of standing around, waiting to be told what to do. Now days, Ethan takes charge, does what needs to be done, and even remembers to do the 3-toots to the horn for reverse. He's come a long way, and one day he will be a leader, and Ron will get to do what his dad did, and get to enjoy semi-retirement. Kenny is a darn good worker too, he seems to have also come a long way since we first saw him.

@messianichebrewshawnkawcak1550 Год назад

That remote is well worth the extra cost, both for safety outside the dead zone if something snaps, and it allows you to see the entire scene. So important to not get too greedy with each pul, too far forward loses down force needed for traction, too close gives it more lift than drag/pulling force. Ethan is learning to Anticipate what you need next, which is good and will make him a great team player when you have to use two or three wreckers on a recovery.

@rayives7758 Год назад

Good clean recovery. I've been having a thought about the Q siren. Assuming the truck has a city horn, instead of using a dashboard switch what about wiring a double throw switch to the horn button. That way with the selector in the siren position you don't have to move your hand from the steering wheel to activate the siren. When you're not running code you can just flip the switch and still have the "soft" horn. I remember years ago police cars having a similar setup.

@djplayskeys Год назад

The truck has air horns on a pull cord above the driver, doubt it has the conventional steering wheel button even installed. Great idea though

@russellleaming5250 Год назад

It is a Federal Signals Q2B siren. It is mechanically spun by an electric motor. It also typically has a mechanical brake. Most of them were (and still are) mounted on Fire trucks. I don't recall when Ron got his, but there is a video in which it was first used. Decades ago, while working as a Paramedic in Raleigh, NC the ambulance to which I usually was assigned had both an electronic siren and a Q2B siren. It was really, really LOUD!

@deconteesawyer5758 Год назад

We have never had an actual air raid in the States, so we are not at all accustomed to hearing one, but we do have Severe Weather Sirens, and they will sound outdoor warning for tornadoes and winds greater than 70mph and hail 1.75” (golf ball) or greater. That is normal here, with testing monthly.
