Hey, he was getting it there. What about the road? I am sure he wasn't going down the highway, looks like a back road. Really, this guy isn't doing anything wrong except what lawmakers have deemed illegal. If he was going slow and the car was chained down, he would have been fine. Chaser vehicle would have been a good idea, and the weight is pretty far back, but hey, this what you are forced to do to make a buck now a days.

No, this was definitely a major highway. Rt. 17 (soon to be I86). 4 lane, 65 MPH speed limit (though 70 is average). Normally I would agree with you with going slow, but he was doing at least close to speed limit if not average. In that case, that could have been big trouble if it came off.

I am quite familiar with 17. I live in Jamestown. Well, then I agree it was not the right road, but there are many back roads, he could have chosen a better route. Wonder where he was trying to take it? If I am loaded down good, I don't take 17. I am usually coming from Westfield though.
