A Totally stupid pointless thread

Some of the tiedown jobs I've seen leaving stores make me want to follow the cars for the same reason you follow the lead of a second lieutenant....

Morbid curiosity.

don't follow too closely tho...yesterday i saw a poorly tiedown ladder hit the car behind....not pretty

I got behind a truck with a flying ladder too - on a back country road with no shoulder to pull off on to, to get out of the way. Fortunately there were no vehicles coming in the opposite direction, and I was able to swerve into that lane. The ladder would have gone right thru my windshield if I hadn't gotten out of it's path. Scared the crap out of me.

Yeah I'm always nervous when I see a vehicle with a bunch of junk piled in the back and not tied down.

I was following a few cars back from this pick up truck that had the bed piled with wood. and the wood was flying out everywhere. everytime he would turn or start moving again after being stopped wood would fall out all over the place.

PANTS? LOL yes that would make me wonder too.
