Truck loses load of heavy paper rolls on the road

YT: Truck driver having a bad day. Loses his load right in front of me this morning. This is just some of the crazy stuff that happens in front of me and why I use a dash cam.

Love how the roll of paper takes out the fire hydrant.

This is why freight should always be safely secured within the truck.
Also, I'd like to know if that truck was cleared to haul that kind of weight. Those rolls are a lot heavier than you'd ever expect.

I used to have a job fetching new roles of paper for big industrial printers. As best I can recall, each one contained a 22-inch wide by 90 mile long piece of paper, weighed in the neighborhood of a ton and was strapped to a palette. If you got the wheel of the palette jack stuck in the crack separating the freight elevator from the hallway, it was a problem. If you were unusually clumsy and let one topple over onto its side, it was a very big problem.
