Epic Tow Truck Fail

Posted by Alex in Car & Vehicle, Video Clips on September 29, 2008 at 5:54 pm


The Bailout plan isn’t the only thing that failed today: here’s a YouTube clip of a tow truck that needed to be bailed out itself after bailing out an overturned semi.

    Did they think it was in park when it rounded that corner and rolled over?

    Only in USA what? Do trucks flip over? I'm assuming based on the .pl of your site, that you're polish. I swear, if this turns into national jokes about who's country is dumber, I will win. Oh yes.

    @ astrodex... its a manual. almost all big trucks are. also, the parking brake on that truck is spring applied and air released. had they been adjusted properly and or maintained correctly, it wouldn't have rolled. Dont assume the tow truck driver is dumb. Had the truck been in proper shape what he was doing was perfectly ok.

    Yes it's actually the truck driver's fault for rolling it in the first place. And for not making sure the truck wouldnt go anywhere once they flipped it back over.
    Believe me, once those spring brakes apply, that truck aint goin anywhere. Assuming they work properly.
