Two transport truck roll overs, two separate accidents at the same location. Three eastbound lanes are closed for the next few hours, and one westbound lane is closed. I'm sitting in the eastbound lanes, thirty seconds past an on ramp. :ugh2:

Hey gang :hello: Have a good day :tiphat:



BFG's situation reminds me of a time I was in stopped traffic on 183 once and decided to brave a short curb with the Z. It was a sloping curb about 3-4 inch tall, which I made it over without incident. I probably saved myself an hour or more. This was in the first few months of ownership, and thankfully, I've never had a to pull something like that since. Although that is exactly the kind of reason I'm glad I'm not lowered.

( Click to show/hide )
I took it at about a 5 degree angle and didn't scrape. I had to turn 90 degrees as soon as I cleared the curb to avoid another curb because I was crossing the on ramp lane (I was in a line of cars in the shoulder that were all crossing this curb).

This is the street view from 183. I crossed the curb just past the road sign.

This is the street view from the on ramp lane looking backwards. I crossed just this side of the road sign and managed to cross the asphalt before the median on the left of the screen.
https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&l...78.89,,0,13.33

A person that had cut me off hard core earlier in the traffic ended up behind me as I was making this maneuver. She rolled her big a$$ buick over the curb at probably 10 mph well before the road sign. I don't know if she just didn't see me earlier or whether she wanted to make up for her a$$hat maneuver when she cut me off, but as I was making my cautious 1/4 mph crossing, she was nice enough to block the left lane of the frontage road to let me in front of her :tup:

:hello: HI Luna!! Hi Jar!!

very nice for you eh Jar?! so she redeemed herself :tup:
