Last summer I was driving with a bunch of tools in the box of my truck. I had a wheelbarrow on top of everything, with a pair of rubber boots buffering it from my back window. I definitely should have used a couple more straps, but I was only going about 2km. So saturday morning about 9am, merrily driving along, some woman walking down the sidewalk on a cell phone turns and starts crossing the street. I hit the brakes, my load slid forward, and the barrel smashed out my back window.

I learned a lesson that day. I hate pedestrians on cell phones. Oh, and there can never be too many straps on a load.
