@ 18:10 "always got to protect the customer's equipment. just because they're rolled over doesn't give us free range to damage it". Good principle, shows character.
I liked the comment from the guy asking if you " if you ever did this before", your comment was "everyday" and your dad Dad just said "42 years". good job as always.
Very interesting watching all of you working together. Saw another wreck you worked on. I drove our own truck from 63-94. Very few women drive then. Lucky never had an accident. You really do a great job and are fast at clearing the freeway. Congrats:
Man I love watching you guys. Balls of steel. Working fast in 112F on LA highways and all that traffic. It’s crazy how professional your team is. Y’all work hard and have great communication to get the job done. That’s the number one reason I keep watching your videos. Thanks for the upload.
@@niallocallaghan5883lol..not sure why some people keep putting coils like that in a box trailer. In my opinion that kinda of load should go on a flatbed where you can actually tie it down properly.
I’m not driver and don’t have a cdl. But who is the responsible for securing the load? Does it come down to the driver? Or the said shipper/loader? Just want to be educated and gain more knowledge. I know some shippers out there own locks on the load? So how does the driver have final say before transport. Hope the question make sense
@densign1223 The driver is always responsible for any load they pull - weirdly enough, even loads the shipper secures and the driver never touches, believe it or not.
My brother went in the Navy a teen ager went came out a few years later bought a tractor and trailer drove all the rest of his life and thank God no accidents and he drove out of California for a lot of years. Great job Pepe’s Towing a lot of people don’t realize some of these trucks are owner operator and if it’s not rolling their pay check stops.
Fantastic job, Josh, Dad and Enrique and all the other guys! The heat must be so draining. Fortunately, we've just had a few days over 100 (so far) here in the Panhandle of Nebraska.
I have hauled both paper and steel rolls in dry vans and it has always been a dangerous situation.. There should have been laws decades ago banning especially paper rolls in dry vans. The small anti-skid pads are worthless in an emergency or hard braking situation. They slide forward just by bouncing from the roads and slide to one side as here when avoiding a car pulling out in front of you. I have seen these size paper rolls go right through the side of a trailer and literally break open a jersey wall. I have also seen them go push out the front buldhead of dry vans. They load these and drivers are not allowed on the docks or in the trailer to put in straps, and the straps are only good to keep rolls from shuttling forward-useless during hard breaking and just break the straps. There is no safe way to haul stand-up rolls. Drive as safe;y as possible but one emergency quick stop or swerve to avoid- and it is disaster. Wood bracing does not stop these rolls!
Once again an AWESOME job Josh. Dad looking good and so does Enrique. Take care guys this weather can put you down fast. Mucho suero. Great seeing Hulk again and I loved seeing him in night hours cause of the green color and my favorite color at that. Take good care of your dad Josh.
Once again a good job guys. I love to watch your videos. The driver of that truck should lose his driver license because of not having secured the cargo. Here in Germany (maybe whole EU) he would lose the licence a couple of months for shure. Here in Europe a driver of a truck has to do 40 hrs of school within 5 years. Main topic: securing well cargo for transport. All the best for you from Germany and always an eye to the crazy drivers on the highways.
U sure a pretty good intelligence, Josh. U r not afraid or embarrassed to show what u over looked in rigging, that might cause damage to ur guys vehicles. Sign of a person who has his foot on the ground. Is y the more I watch the more I'm getting impressed with ur actions including Alex🤙🤙🤙🤙🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Hey Josh how many years have you been doing this? I heard your dad say 42 you will only get better as time goes on. Seems to me that you've been at it for awhile.
Another brilliant video illustrating how much work is needed to clear the road and from a spectators point of view here in the U.K. clearing one lane would not have been a option as the road would have been shut for hours. Thank you for sharing
Be extremely careful in the heat. In military I got heat exhaustion twice and I have not been the same. I was in my thirties then-70s now and always tried to be very cautious. But I dropped my guard down got medvaced both times. ✝️
As a truck driver of 35 years, this kind of complete disregard by the truck driver is inexcusable. It’s not the shippers fault, it’s not the guy that preloaded the trailers fault, it’s all on him. My wife, mother, kids, and friends all drive next to these guys who just don’t have a clue what they are doing or they just don’t care.
In as much as you are correct, these drivers have absolutely no insight as to how these loads are secured due to the container having a seal. Wood on wood creates almost no friction at all. Just so you know, kinetic friction is exactly half of static friction. So once a body at rest starts moving, unless it encounters resistance , it's gonna keep going. That's what happened here.
@@joeacosta5011 exactly my point. That isn’t a sea land container, so the driver had to see how this was loaded. Not one block nailed in, not one rubber mat, not one strap, nothing at all. It is solely the drivers responsibility to secure the load, and a seal on the back doesn’t excuse it. If you can’t inspect it, you shouldn’t haul it.
It seems apparent from these roll overs, the vast majority are sealed and it is not realistic to suggest drivers reject these loads. It would result in a lot of things not delivered and a lot of drivers out of work.
@@kelleyunofficial3269 if you go to pick up a load and the shipper refuses to let you see the load before you sign for it, you are a complete moron if you take it. There is no stipulation in the DOT regulations that excuses a driver for an insecure load because it was sealed by the shipper prior to the driver checking it out. I never drove as a company driver, so maybe I look at things a little different, but I started my career when men took this job seriously and used a little common sense.
All that heavy steel rolls in the front from that trailer... whats going wrong in that trailer , are the rolls walking under the road trip, or not enough or good straps ?? greetings from Hakke from the Netherlands.
That wouldn’t have happened if those skids would have been chained down . If flat bed haulers go down the road like that they get stoped fined and made to secure the load .
That was a Pepe's full floating Taco Roll .. Good work gentlemen. These guys would make for good contract customers. Make sure they know you have trucks in 11 locations throughout LA and the Inland Empire.
5:35 tiens là ,pas de corridor de sécurité au contraire ,ils libèrent une voie ! Pas comme en France .... où quelques kilomètres plus loin ,les motards ,radar en main ,alignent à qui en veut ,des PV pour les trop pressés et retardataires .
Josh the best part of this job is that the payment was there Music to your ears! That doesn’t happen to often .. Great job keeping the equipment moving..
Your father is extremely smart man!!! 👍 Any great truck driver ALWAYS ties down their freight no matter what to avoid these types of accidents of the freight 'moving' in the trailer. 🙄
Awesome job by all, especially some sweet backing-up skills by Enrique. The cuts don't bother me, you guys are busting your asses in dangerous conditions, I could never fault you for putting your health & safety over my entertainment.
As a flat bed driver in the sixties in Australia when curtain side trailers started appearing I said this is a disaster waiting to happen out of sight out of mind this driver should have his authority to drive removed
My man was watching this video and I started to watch with him. Well, it's been 3 hours later and I am still watching your videos. Amazing job to you all that are involved! Thanks for sharing these incredible videos.
Great job making it upright. Insane driving off with a load like those rolls without securing them properly with straps to the floor!!! What a big risk recipe for a disaster to happen!!! If that trailer didn't had point in the floor for straps, should used another trailer. A flatbed would be the most natural choice I guess
Thank you for leaving in the mistake cut 🥺 I just have a rollback but was worried about the weight of the engine and cab rotating and pivoting like that. I'm glad no one (or no thing) was hurt
Seems that these 53' are a lot of the rollovers. Maybe reduce to max of 40' would solve some problem. Also, it seems poor planning of setting loads properly would help. Your thoughts. .
29:20 Hey Josh love your work, I guess I been watching too many of your videos that I consider myself an expert 🤣. I new by the way you were flipping this the front had no control of overturning, close call. 😅
I enjoy watching these videos and the hard work you guys do. Although I have 1 issue. I had to mute it cause I like sometimes when you explain things but not when you talk noon stop. I just like to concentrate on your work.
