I think so

[Pelorus]

you just can't make this stuff up.
Yesterday am, Bracebridge Ontario.
I reckon the driver of the food service tractor trailer that toppled this bucket is gonna be sent packing back to the Punjab....

 

[luckydad]

How ??

 

[gorman]

The lower boom must have been sticking out in the road.

 

[Pelorus]

The side near the back of the trailer that hit the boom was crunched really good.
The fellow that took the pictures around 8:00 am yesterday said the sun was blinding, so the poor S.O.B. driver probably didn't notice the end of that boom protruding over the parking lot driveway he was backing into.

Owner of the bucket must be very upset! Imagine at all the income he will lose with that truck out.

This is why when I have to have my lower boom over the road I put a guy on traffic so a box truck doesn't hit it.

Or was this truck parked?

 

[Zale]

Looks like the boom is folded. I don't get it.

High truck hit the boom when in the rest?

 

[luckydad]

Did the box truck catch the small amount of the boom hanging over the end of the chip box maybe ??

I think it did.

Almost happened on crew I was working with. The boom was perpendicular to the lanes of traffic.

To me it looks like the the tree crew stopped at 'Oliver's' for breakfast, he did not pull up far enough to allow tall trucks, (like delivery trucks) to be able to pull in with the boom over the parking lot entrance. The delivery driver had the sun in his eye's and just pulled in.

Yup.

 

[Zale]

Alright, that I can understand but still, to push the whole truck over seems odd. I would think the bucket would just rip off.

The cradle lock is stronger than one of Jeff's hitch pins.

This makes much more sense. There's not a ******* tree here to work on.

Truck is a "Hydro One" vehicle.

Hydro One Inc. is Ontario's (Canadian Province) largest electricity transmission and distribution company. They are a publicly funded monopoly. I don't think they'll miss it.
