2.2 Watch that P.T.O. handle guys! For those that don't know, a truck with a bed or a trailer operated by a hydraulic ram has what is known as a P.T.O. (Power Take Off). Tow trucks, dump trucks, dump trailers, etc, they all operate on the same hydraulic principle; the PTO. Inside the cab, there's a little lever that engages and disengages the PTO, and it's basically a little gearbox on the side of the transmission and is operated by pushing in the clutch, engaging the PTO, and then engaging the clutch. The problem is, if the handle isn't fully locked into the 'down' position, it can build a small amount of residual pressure in the system. If the trailer is full, is no big deal, but when empty, that small amount of pressure can engage the ram and lead to big problems.
tl;dr = Every time you see a truck run into an overpass like this, that's what happens.

@sweetgracie1930 Yer missing the point: you are playing the blame game while I'm trying to fix the problem. What part of me condemning this person's actions did you not understand? You need to look at the bigger picture here because there's more than just one asshole in the world, it is what it is and NO ONE is ever going to change that. Instead of focusing on the REACTION of one person, focus on the ACTION that instigated it in the first place. You can't fix society, only deal with it which is why corporate gave their employees the tools to handle it, IE: the drive-thru parking spot. Doesn't having a parking spot for the drive thru defeat the purpose? Also, I call BS because if you've worked fast food for as long as you have, then you SHOULD know you don't hold up a line of cars with ONE vehicle. You give them their drinks, park them, and then run it out when it's ready. Simply put, if the employees continue doing this, they're going piss off more and more people and it IS going to happen again. And when you say 'people' I hope you don't mean me because I always try to treat people with respect and avoid saying to upset people that would cause a fight in the first place.
