Hanging beef in a Reefer could be quite exciting at times as well!
The best advice I could give is to give these Concrete Mixers and Dump Trucks a wide berth. The guys and girls who drive them are SuperHuman in my eyes, how they work the hours they do is just amazing.

Bosoxfan posted those pictures last night just after I posted and the truck may have had some leftover material in it but thankfully it didn't look like it was full. There are other factors which can cause a rollover other than driver error. Let's see what the final verdict is. It will be investigated and that truck will be on the road again.
