Still............on...............site
Through some contacts it was two transport trucks. One lost control and got in the way of the other. One truck was carring a 797 haul truck box whuch is the dump box from the biggest dump truck in the world. After they move that off the hwy we'll be rolling. (and not rolling that good bc way, lol)

Re: The Castanet Gab-O-Rama
What's the main cause of those accidents? Is that a regular highway or an ice highway?

Re: The Castanet Gab-O-Rama
Haha, it's a regular hwy. The roads in northern AB are covered in snow and ice from the end of oct until the end of may. This is why albertans don't care about lines on the road, we can rarely see them. I'd prolly call driver error on 99%. I drive every week south. I was in pg last weekend. It''s winter driving in Canada, people need to adjust.

You got that right, today was the warmest December 1st day on record in Kelowna.

Haha, no worries Lady. Left the house yesterday at 430am, got home at 3:30 am the next day. Back at'er today. In all honesty I'm lucky, specially if you would have seen the pics of the accident last night. Poor guy didn't have a chance.
Slow down, leave lots of room, it's winter in Canada.
Hey while I gotcha here here's a safety tip. When traveling on icey roads keep your cell in your pocket.If you cartwheel through the ditch the last thing you wanna do when you stop is dig through the snow looki g for your phone. Stay safe

Apparently that's from Russia a couple of years ago - but horrific nonetheless.

The person driving the straight truck did a pretty valiant job
of controlling it, possibly averting even more disaster.

Ya that's not 63.
Freaked me out the first time I saw it. That's exactly like my pickup.
