Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

Where and when did you go to college?

Mid 80's. I went to Purdue. My parents moved to Wyoming for my last couple years so one summer I pumped gas and changed tires.

Failure to secure load, failure to display OVERSIZE LOAD sign, Failure to obtain OVERSIZE permit, Failure to flag widest points of load. Failure to have a clue/brain/common sense...

But smart enough to not stop on the tracks for the red signal.

Took this picture in Iowa yesterday at a Mendards. The mower had no tie-down. I'm guessing he was using the skid steer chains to hold the mower on.

The chain must have been there for looks only, it wasn't doing much else!

Here is one I saw Friday. It is a BX with a loader on a single axle trailer. The tires were under inflated and the tractor was "secured" with a rope going across the floorboard. There were also bags of something possibly sand or rocks, on the front of the trailer. It was very tongue heavy. The trailer axle was bowing pretty good.

Chains? Chains? I don't need to show you no stinking chains!

The mower is a "Crapsman"
He probably didn't care if it rolled off!

Jeez, he coulda just put it on the roof and looped the rungs over that antenna thingie...that would have held it just fine. No creativity these days.

Or stuck it WAY out from the hatchback - still better than the solution shown.

Here I thought he was trying to climb it to get out of the "other" door!!

*jaw drop wow*

now that is pretty bad.

i can see someone using a car and sticking ladder through it. you do what ya gotta do. and hope not to get caught. but the boat... wow. that is just bad.

 

[Fallon]

Not sure if this belongs here or not. It's "wrong" but not really that bad. Might get dangerous when the fatigue sets in if it's more than a 5 minute ride.

Any right hand turns or lane changes would bound to be interesting.
