My wife and I were driving down the freeway last Sunday morning about 9 AM. I could see everyone hitting their brakes just ahead of me. We figured an accident. We got up there and we see 4 guys pushing a 20 foot equipment trailer from the left lane to the right shoulder. They seemed to be pushing it over towards the 3/4 ton Ram pickup that was on the shoulder. I looked around and realized that it had come off the back of the Ram. The trailer had no safety chains. Best I could tell is that the Ram had a 2" ball and I know most equipment trailers require a larger ball than that. The trailer did not seem to hit anyone else as there were no damaged cars. He was lucky in two ways. First that he did not hurt or kill anyone. Second he did it right where the State Troopers usually have a speed trap on Sundays. He did a stupid thing but I wonder if he even has a clue.
