This one reminds me of a couple guys that came into the quarry I used to own. They had a rotted out Ford F-150 with a flat bed and side boards on it. My loader operator loaded it till it started to settle pretty good and stopped. The owners wanted more on it so I told them that they were already overloaded but they insisted on more so I told them that they would have to shovel it on themselves. They did and left with three and a half tons. They got about a mile down the road and the truck broke in half. The cops show up and ask them how much they had on the truck, the owner says only about a half ton at which point the owners kids says “No daddy the man at the scale said we have three and a half tons” They ended up with an overweight ticket, had to shovel the load onto another truck and tow bill. Too funny.
