2012 Spot the Tort Contest: Multi-Ton Rolling Tort

2012 Spot the Tort Contest2012 “Spot the Tort” Contest with my 1Ls at the University of Memphis law school:

This truck was completely stopped and stuck on the curb, which is why I had a chance to take the picture. The quality is not the best, but the brake lights are not only broken they are smashed out. Also, nothing in the bed of the trailer is strapped down!

I was waiting for one of the plastic poles on the side to roll off. Then I noticed that the construction machine was not tied down. Then at this point I was wondering how much damage this would do if it came off the trailer. Gravity does not work miracles! — Jessica Wargo
