      It was overweight for the bridge, not the road. It was from a commercial trucking company, so likely a dump truck. The first clue should be that it was a F-750. There are pickup beds for them, but they’re almost always a flatbed or dump bed.

        Street-legal, bridge-legal, who gives a shit. The point is, they drove it illegally and should be able to be punished accordingly. The make and model are irrelevant.

            I don’t care either way, I was responding to a different person who said they couldn’t be punished because it was street-legal but in “the wrong place.” I was simply pointing out that street-legal-but-in-the-wrong-place is the same as not-street-legal.

              Why do you have such a hard on for punishment? Isn’t restitution enough?

                I have a hard-on for accurate language, I don’t give a shit what happens to the imaginary people in the pickup truck.
