RAW: How to tow a semi in Chicago

They don't mess around in Chicago when it comes to a truck blocking the interstate. They just drag it to the next exit. I've seen this done dozens of times. Sometimes it takes 4 big tow trucks!

Trust me, they aren't any more gentle about righting it either. Their only goal is to get it off the road and they can care less about creating more damage.

Ya that cant be good for anyone but the commuters.. They are worried more about the morning traffic than anything else. The roads cant get any worse. Typically they dont have to drag it for more than a few blocksand then down the ramp. Judging by the 3 trucks pushing & pulling I betcha that truck if fully loaded.

GEES we wouldnt be allowed to do that here the Insureance companies wouldnt pay up as extra damage being done

I guess the taxpayers there don't mind paying for all the damage these morons do to the recovery trucks,the wrecked vehicles and the roads.

that is pretty funny, and for all the ones who are complaining, he should have slowed down in crap weather. the towers are there to get the road clear no matter what, because if they dont every one in their cars will be complaing about what taking so long not to mention the other wrecks from rubber neckers.

I've seen them do this hundreds of times. This is how they do it for real. There's no time to play games in Chi Town.

@Weldaz1 you shouldnt worry if you keep your wheels on the ground. Plus he's just doing his job, you'd be the one who rolled your own truck.....

[tvbykris]

keep it on the wheels and there won't be this problem

[Weldaz1]

I own a 359, there are no 359's, therefore,

insurance ain't enough...I'd beat the tow master to death with my cheater bar!!!! This way when I get out of prison I'll still be a truck driver & the tow master is dead.

all that idot is worried about is clearing the lanes as quickly as possible,PERIOD.we all forget that it was a dumb a** driver that rolled their truck over.
