Iowa State Patrol stops trailer for ‘obvious structural concerns’

The Iowa State Patrol Commercial Motor Vehicle Unit (ISPCMVU) is reminding truckers to vent their trailers after spotting a tanker with damage while on patrol.

ISPCMVU took to Facebook on Tuesday morning with several images of a collapsed tanker trailer along with a warning for the trucking community:

Some things just stick out like a sore thumb going down the road. This trailer was stopped by one of our troopers this morning for having obvious structural concerns…

As a side note to drivers – don’t forget to vent your trailers!
