road grader vs. jeep

[NO MO BEGGEN]

check this out my wife was out yard saleing friday and was parked on the side of the road while she was looking at stuff a semi-truck drove by with a road grader on the back the blade was sticking out to far and got a little to close. the truck belonged to the cleanup crew that is working on the clean up of the k-zoo river in plainwell

she was legally parked and over 8"away from the white line that runs along the side of the road pretty much half way into the ditch. the driver just wasn't paying attention to his load

Good to hear the boss was not inside when it happened.

What happens for a vehicle now? Will they repair/replace your vehicle????

[NO MO BEGGEN]

waiting for monday to find out im sure its not repairable. going to see if their insurance will pay for rental till its settled

Glad to hear your wife was NOT in the Jeep at the time.

That happens sometimes, you get a driver that is not used to hauling "oversized" and they forget to compensate for the overhanging equipment.
