Car Rolls Back off of Tow Truck Bed

[TowNews]

Not to mention the Rollback is chased down and stopped as it rolls away.

I think a little re-training may be needed ...

This is a great training video. In all my years, I've never seen both tow truck and loaded vehicle roll in opposite directions. From what I see ... it especially addresses the issues of:

1)  driving a vehicle onto a carrier's deck

2)  no topside safety strap(s)

3)  no chock blocks against the carrier's tires

4)  failing to set the carrier's emergency brake

5)  the dangers of chasing a rolling tow truck.

 

Yeah ... it's appropriate to say that the tow God's were with this guy this day.     R.

If you look at the front left is that a strap that is loose ?

There's so much wrong with this video it hurts my head. To have both vehicles roll away from you has to be statistically higher than winning the lottery, unless you don't use that thing above your shoulders for more than a hat rest.

... it does appear that there was a loose-strap at the driver's front, but an unattached strap doesn't hold any value nor does it hold a loose SUV.

 

For me ... I'm entertained at the 33-second mark that includes a double, "WTF", head-scratching moment from the Lookie-Loo's on-scene.

I've witnessed a double nose picking before, but this is the first double head scratching incident I've ever seen.    R.
