A lesson in balancing your load

Loading your truck’s bed with stuff is a lot more difficult than it looks. First, you have to make sure there’s enough room for your things. Next, everything needs to be perfectly balanced to prevent your car from swaying too much when turning. Also, to stop your load from falling off the bed, you need hundreds and hundreds of feet of rope.

Although this is pretty basic stuff, the driver of this truck was completely clueless. Why would they attempt to balance intact logs on top of wooden pallets? As the weight of the logs crushes the pallets underneath, the more slack there is in the rope. Hopefully, these guys didn’t create a Final Destination kind of disaster while driving down the road.
