Ouch! That looks bad, Vincent. Whole rig is beyond repair? Had the same experience but on a bicycle. Inline skater vs. bicyclist accident. Did the over taking car stop?

Take care, Vincent, the most important thing is that you are OK.

Vincent, hope you weren't injured. Good luck with the aftermath of all this and the job search.

Seatbelts save lives i walked away with minor bruises and sore muscles.

No lawsuits pending, state patrol doesn't have a clue what to cite me for.
First said i was sleeping, then said i was reaching for stuff, then cited me for wheel off roadway.

Company said it was preventable, and said it was gross misconduct by not following routing, but routing only got me to shipper and the final routing to consignee in Illinois. Nothing stating route between i was taking most direct route that I've traveled 100 times since 2001.

Because of what the company said and assessed on their part basicly means i cannot drive commercial truck for at least 10 years as no one will touch me.

Such is life thanks for the thoughts all hope to try building in a few days when my back feels better
