Sometimes it just isn’t your day.
Peter
The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time. My approach to life is that it should be taken with a large helping of laughter, and sufficient firepower to keep it tamed!
This would actually be a good IQ test- someone could collate all these instances per capita for different countries.
That extracted plenty of winces!
If you want to see some more transport accidents, this is a neat site: http://www.cargolaw.com/index-new.html
However, the latest I found are in 2013, so it won't have the most recent accidents.
I've had days like that!
Boy, all that momentum and gravity stuff is a real b****h, ain't it?
I actually saw a semi that had peeled the top off it's trailer on a railroad bridge today in Western New York.
… and the two cargo trains that were sitting on the tracks waiting for the bridge to be inspected before they could go on their way.
I guess they don't teach physics or any kind of science today in the schools anymore.
Those will make you feel better about your day, I suppose… also, proof that God looks after fools! I saw quite a few people getting out or off in the nick of time.
And yet there are places where trucks are thought to be 'Heavy Transport'.
