A dump truck driver’s bad day was caught on camera by a passing motorist.

 

The video was captured in Santa Fe, New Mexico, on July 20.

The driver filming describes what happened:

 

“As I was about to make a U-turn I saw this man coming from my left side in the light taking all the pole wires so I began recording. This man forgot to lower the back of his truck and began driving, and as he continued to drive he took the pole wires and the light. He proceeded to go forward and had no idea he was stuck from the top of his back truck. Because of this incident, he caused two cities Santa Fe and Los Alamos to have no internet for many hours.”

See the video below.
