CODE 3 MULTI SEMI PILE UP!! THE ICE RINK BRIDGE

Talon, Mike, Kenny, I, and the rest of the crew have quite the mess to clean up after an ice storm passed through. One semi tractor & trailer jack-knifed on an icy bridge. And a Piggy-back stack got caught up in the mess, somehow. This is one of the rare wrecks that I can't tell exactly what happened. I sure know the outcome, however. It's all hands on deck for this major cleanup!!! I had to edit out the jack-knife portion of the video for reasons I won't go into. There is still PLENTY of action to be had to clearing up the mess from the Piggy-back. The steer axle broke loose on the lead truck. The second truck broke loose and went into the rear of the lead truck (horse). Somehow, the bridge was damaged in the crash as well. This thing was like a skating rink!! Thankfully, we brought plenty of ice melt and oil dry!! I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

Anybody that has watched your channel for any period of time knows you as a man of conscience and good taste. Don't worry about not showing the first part. Thank you for showing what you could. That was a real mess handled with your usual skill.

Ron, I was 7 years senior to your Dad! I loved to watch him on the job and
Watch him bring a quite peace to the problems!
As I missed my dad after he passed on to heaven, sure you will and are missing him when he went to eat with the Lord! I watched each show that he was in two or more times!
You have a tremendous crew and most all seemed to respect him and followed his leading without him saying anything!
Your son Ethan seems to be getting more confidence, I especially noticed
It when you were working the white 57 T-Bird!
I enjoy your show so much and really keeps me learning rather tha going mind dead watching old movies!

Your respect for injured or worse is commendable. No sensationalism, just solutions to twisted metal. Stay safe.

[Thirdbase]

Ron I hope you, your family, and employees are all safe and healthy after yesterday's crashes. Stay safe out there.

[StevenRitchey]

I used to tow wrecked vehicles, and I saw some things that 40+ years later I still can't unsee.

[MaDeuce]

Unfortunate that it's needed but you gotta love the sound of the Q siren

[chuckmoore]

I just read about the 135-vehicle crash on I-57 last night. I am certain you and your team have been very busy overnight. Praying that everyone stays safe.

[edwicks]

All I know is, when he said he retracted the initial footage, prayers, good thoughts and well wishes came from my house hold . A good man doing good things ! 🙏 and a 🤝!

[philippenaluna]

Considering that the rest of that day's work was rather horrific, your reasons for not showing this particular job in its entirity are fully understood and appreciated. You are clearly a man of principles and, I suspect, so was your late father. You handle such difficult situations with clarity, conviction, determination and total professionalism. This was another classic case of teamwork, enhanced by Talon joining in for a change. Stay safe, all of you, and God bless you all.

[cajuneagle]

I enjoy the fact that no matter the situation. You keep the job professional and safe.

[constancevascik]

One of the reasons I enjoy watching your videos is because you care about people and their privacy. Also the way you work with your team, more managers could learn from your example. Be safe!

Ron - Please NEVER apologize for parts of video/rescue that you choose not to publish!! Thanks for what you do!!

[gwechoochoo]

Tow Operators are the unsung heroes of the FIEST RESPONDERS. Thank you for your service, and putting up with the pot hole laden I55.

[sharonshields]

I trust your judgment, thank you for the difficult and sometimes dangerous work you do. My best wishes to you and your crew. Be well and stay safe, God Bless.

[chrislongbeard]

Thanks for splitting it up into 2 videos. I wish I could spare almost 2 hours to watch a video.

[gilnorton]

Saying a prayer for you and your work family and for all of those who responded to that horrendous pile up on I 57. May God continue to watch over and comfort you and all the others who have experienced a devastating loss. Peace be with you.

[steves]

Thank you Ron, Mike & Talon, glad you all came out of that safe but cold I'm sure. You don't need reasons for editing or deleting video as you know the circumstances at the scenes and show great compassion.
Hope you and your team stay safe out there.

[SilentCougar]

Ron, it is clear that after watching hrs and hrs of your work, your teamwork, safety checks and work ethics are second to none. When such events happen and sadness to those lost is set aside to carry on regardless and do such sterling work is highly commendable. I wish you, family and the team stay safe throughout these testing times.

[barryfeatheringill]

Not sure exactly why I have become addicted to watching your videos. It is nice to hear and see a crew that works together so we’ll. Will have all the crew covered with good thoughts and lots of prayers for health and safety.

[jacmccauley]

Great to see talon on the job site, even though he doesn’t get out there very often anymore
