18-Wheeler Against Light Pole on Old Troy Road at Midnight

May 12th, 2008 by Joe Burgess

100_1937.JPG

Around midnight, Sunday night, this tractor trailer was on it’s way from Colorado to Florida, hauling potatoes, when his GPS told him that Old Troy was a connecting road between highways.

The GPS was incorrect, as the driver found out, and came to a dead end, with no good place to turn his rig around in the dark.

The driver then attempted to back up his big-rig to find a good turning spot, when his rear wheels ran into the ditch on the gravel section of Old Troy Road, and was resting against a light pole.

Lock & Keys towed the 18-wheeler out the ditch, and helped him get turned around.
