If anyone remembers i mentioned i had a rollover accident in Cabazon, California on 1/8/08.

I finally got the pictures that were taken so i posted them here for ya. Video that the news crew took on the scene will be coming soon i hope, enjoy

Oh forgot to mention they called it equipment failure, ull see in the pics the weak ass mounting points they had for that whole bed/tank set up busted while i was turning, the whole bed/tank leaned on me and i spilled 3000 gallons into that field. As for the diesel i got lucky and it all stayed on the roadway and none got in the field.

that really looks homemade for sure.




What kind of rig is that?
 
Its a highrail truck setup to spray herbicide for vegetation control on railroad right of way, i set on the tracks and spray as i go. heres a video of me in a different truck AFTER the wreck. I didnt get any tickets or anything u can see in the pic's they used some really weak bolts going through that channel/frame and they snapped when i started making my turn. The whole bed/tanks started leaning on me so i cranked it to the right and the truck literally walked itself over on me nothing i could do but hold on and shit my pants!

the railroads around here just use the trains to set the vegetation on fire to clear it out


it seems to work ok, but the neighbors usually complain
 
ha thats what im for to keep the vegetation down to as close to 0 as i can, fire prevention and it aslo helps the track inspectors out and makes there job easier. If we didnt spray, the railroads would be a nightmare. Next time u come to a crossing and can see a train coming thank me heh
