To the driver hauling brush on the expressway this morning around 10:25 am. You sir / madam, need to learn the necessity of securing your load! I don't know how that piece of tree managed to come off of your truck and land in the middle of the westbound Lane! The traffic was extremely heavy and the drivers around me had to slam on their brakes and swerve to miss other cars that were trying to miss that piece of tree. Thank you to all the drivers around meith quick reflexes that were paying attention. Thank you to the gentleman that got out of his pickup truck behind me, after almost rear-ending me, to pull that piece of tree off the road. This could have been the worst Monday morning for many people. To the driver again, you should consider yourself very lucky that you are not being held responsible for several injuries and possible deaths this morning. I hope you see this post and understand the gravity of your error. Do better!!
