A log truck is usually huge truck which can carry heavy loads. For example it can carry a big Kobelco SK200 excavator. These trucks also are known by their flat beds and the various range of loads they can carry. Many of the log trucks can load itself and transport construction machines. At the very beginning of the video you will see how a truck, loaded with huge Komatsu excavator is crossing lines and going into sharp turns with high speed. Yes, you will think the same, this is our dumb driver but actually this guy is on a rescue mission!
In our video here we have a dumb log truck driver who was thinking that the will beat a Guinness world record if he applies huge pressure on the throttle.
Can you believe that? By his on road performance seems that he will be the one who will flip the log truck. We suspect that the rescuing destination was not far because if it was the company which owns these excavators needs to send another rescuer to save the day. Yeah, he arrived but like he wasn’t give a damn about the accident, like it was a usual routine to him. If he was concerned he wouldn’t drive as a maniac on the road.
He unloaded the Komatsu excavator and the rescue mission started. But one rescuer was not enough and another Kobelco SK200 excavator arrived. He came fast, almost at the same time so the chances that this driver was breaking speed records with his log truck are huge!
But the process of executing the rescue mission and putting back on tires the flipped truck is interesting and after that is done you will see that this Fuso truck is powered by Mitsubishi engine, probably some nasty diesel V8. If you have any information about the engine or some comments about handling this disaster smoother feel free to comment below.
