POS Trailer..... The reporter showed the front of the trailer where it broke clean off... What a shame... It looks like the 43 that FastBoats had advertised for awhile in there ads... Either way very unfortuate and I hope the damage is not severe...

Drivers are horrible in this area. I would bet that some loser cut the guy off and had to make a panic stop. Turning right from the left lane on a 3 lane road is common down here . 41 is a smooth, wide road there.
