Spot the Tort: The Latest in Overloaded Vehicle Torts

A rolling tort doubling as a mobile movie theater.

“Rolling Torts” is the label Lawhaha gives to overloaded vehicles presenting dangers on America’s roads and highways.  They’re everywhere.  On the one hand, you have to admire the ingenuity and ability of people to load moving-truck sized packages onto ordinary passenger vehicles.  On the other hand, if one of these items breaks loose, especially on a highway, the risk to other drivers and passengers is severe.

(Of course, technically speaking, “Spot the Tort” entries are actually potential torts.  An actual tort doesn’t occur until the risk manifests itself in injury.)
