You certainly captured the mess well, Chris! Wow, I hope no one was hurt. Aside from that, the lighting is wonderful considering it must have been getting dark outside. #1172469

Thanks a lot, pleased to show you a bit about our town. Luckily the driver was able to take it just out of town & no-one was hurt. #7890742

You sure were right on the spot for this one, Chris. An unhappy situation for the driver and his company and a happy one for you. Sometimes life is like that, isn't it. GREAT candid shot!! #7895368

Thanks for all the great comments. Yes, it's funny how what is a bad experience for one is a good one for someone else. This turned out pretty good, as only the load was lost, no lives or equipment. #7905266
