Hey is that Quebec plates on that car?
Yesterday I got to watch a BIG tow truck tow a bus that came across 6 lanes of traffic over the center median. drop about 6 feet from the road and almost ran through our work building. I don't know how the driver did it, but it came straight across "perpendicular" from the other side of the road. Dang I need to get a digital camera.

Thanks Bill! I had a feeling you'd come through! ;-)
OMG! That is friggin hilarious. Those guys were STUPID! Not to mention they were using one of those BAD tow straps (with the metal hooks on the ends)...tsk tsk tsk
This is a good reason to think twice before helping pull someone out of a snowbank. Although it was stupid to pull it in the direction they did (and therefore none of US would have been in this particular situation in the first place ;-) ), the driver of the car obviously didn't know anything about where to safely attach the strap...and you just don't want to be in the middle of something like this when you're just trying to be a good samaritan. Lawyers could get involved pretty quick!
anyone else have a link for a reader getting to this thread late? hell, i'll even post it on my server as a favor if requested.
Thanks, Bill. I had downloaded 1/4 of it, but files that big take a while at
32 Kbps. Dumb Guys!Oh yes! Absolutely; I always do. However, I always check where the owner attached it, and won't pull them if I don't feel the owner chose an appropriate attachment location. ;-)

I let them crawl in the mud, but check the attachment, I really dont want to get whacked by a flying bumper.
