This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The logs don’t actually tend to fly out and backwards, they fall off to the sides, usually just one side too, the best option is to give them plenty of space and be ready to steer to the side not dumping logs. If you’re unfortunate enough that one managed to catch air enough to be sent back but not enough to change it from horizontal to more vertical the universe has already decided what you’re doing, dying

We have a ton of these where I live I’ve never seen one in motion fail I don’t find them any scarier than a normal semi who has who knows what, possibly something way more deadly and way less stable hidden inside the container

Dodge right and hope for the best trying to control the car in the weeds. Wrecking in dirt seems somewhat better odds than being speared by a thousand pound log.

Swerve right with medium braking. Depending on the logs either swerve back in, or more likely crash into the guardrail as slow as possible, any oole/structure could take a lifesaving hit before you do.

That's the (then-) new highway near where I grew up, right before they put up the signage. I'd slow down because my dad knew all the cops.
