Even the pros have their bad days.



Our local paper shot this video: Crash Video - Standard-Examiner
(Note, there is a 15 second commercial, then the video starts. It is a safe site- safer than most the other places you guys look at

it comes with the territory. If only our service members could have been that lucky to escape with their lives in all the rollovers these trucks have had.

Anther Ex MV turned tanker crash, and another report for NFPA to say "here is why this is a bad idea"

Seatbelts breaking???? Sounds like they were originals. Lesson to us all, and a another good example of why I replace all my seatbelts with new ones when I get a MV.

Say truck did not have water on board looks like no tank mounted yet. Sharp curve in road and rolled sounds like to fast and not use to unit. These truck make very safe wildfire engines when set up right and not over loaded. Just my two cents

Ditto. I just replaced mine in my A2C, didn't trust the originals.
