Semi Truck Crash Spilled Logs on 299; One Way Traffic Control
Video by Rob Kilgore
A logging truck rolled onto its side on Hwy 299 near Salyer spilling its load about 1:13 p.m. Be prepared for traffic slowdown in the area as it will take awhile for the logs to be cleared. As of 4:09 p.m., one way controlled traffic is in effect.
An ambulance responded for the driver.

??That’s two in a week.
Time for the jobless treehuggers to chime in?
Nice video Rob. Willie, do you have a point or are you just counting?
??Them kind of trucks scare me,Final Destination thing maybe.?
That’s an odd place to roll a truck…
Not really, just coming in too hot. It’s a 45 mph or less corner.
Depending on your bushings , you down shift at the whole echalta to 7direct and throttle in 7 over . he hit the brakes halfway through
Wasn’t speeding at all. Doing 35 when it happened
Maybe a wrapper broke or else he was going way to fast
Or fell asleep ?
There’s a million excuses !
So I am the driver of log truck… This set of turns are familiar to me as I’ve hauled a lot loads over here. I wasn’t speeding I had down shifted to 6th over then to 6th under prior to first part off this s turn and and at time trailer went over I was throttling up into 6 th over and was between 35 and 40 mph. Scariest thing ever to happen to me behind the wheel.
I’m glad you are okay!
