The day just got even worse for a truck driver who was already getting pulled over for a load securement issue.
On Friday, the Georgia Department of Public Safety took to social media to deliver a message to truckers about the importance of load securement.
The Facebook post reads:
“MCO Calloway (Region 4), observed this CMV traveling with improper load securement. When he pulled the vehicle over to conduct an inspection the load shifted. This shows the importance of properly securing your load.“
“Sucks to be him but he definitely learned his lesson,” said one Facebook commenter.
“Good thing that lumber didn’t go through the cab or start falling off the flatbed hitting cars. smh,” another wrote.
