Why in the world would the rails on the trash truck be "Up" driving down Lancaster? :no:

How does something like this happen?

[Jumper_Dad]

No idea...it looks like complete negligence, but there could be more to it.

Why in the world would the rails on the trash truck be "Up" driving down Lancaster? :no:

 

Because "someone" forgot they were extended. I remember about 15 years ago, a local rock hauler had his empty dump bed up overnight to keep it drained. Next morning came out, jumped into truck and drove off. Torn down over a mile of street light wiring and some other cables. Embarrassing and expensive. And the guy was a really responsible person, just forgot. Of course his buddies at the barber shop didn't forget. :laugh:

Driver is lucky no one was on it when he drove through. From the looks of it, could have been some serious injuries.

Going to make a mess out of traffic considering a large portion of students commute daily or weekly.

That's crazy...not sure how that happens once, let alone twice by the same company in a matter of weeks.
