SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, CA. (Pain In The Pass) >> Don’t need to be this guy? You need pack everything but the kitchen sink into your Honda Ridgeline pickup truck this holiday season. Instead of taking two trips or get a trailer, he decided to go up.
This vehicle was observed traveling southbound on Highway 99 within central California in the city of Madera. The problem? An unsafe load caused debris to fly off onto the roadway.
Always secure your load and ensure you don’t exceed your vehicle’s load capacity. An improperly secured load isn’t just a hazard for you—it’s a danger to everyone on the road. Flying debris can force other drivers to take evasive action, increasing the risk of serious crashes.
Safety tips from the CHP to protect yourself and others:
- Use appropriate tie-downs or covers.
- Double-check your load before driving.
- Stay within your vehicle’s weight limits.
Unsafe loads can lead to hefty fines—or worse, tragedy. Let’s work together to keep California’s roads safe. They don’t have a problem to cite you, take a picture, and blast you on social media for illegally (and unsafely) overloading your vehicle.
