@deltapolice” reads the tweet.
While officers were waiting for a tow truck, they came across a different driver with an “insecure load”.
While waiting for the tow truck for the semi with 6 flat tires, @CstUsipiuk pulled over this driver for an insecure load. That's scrap metal hanging out of the container on the flatbed. Imagine driving behind this truck on the highway? pic.twitter.com/K5VFTA2QQm

It’s important to always check your vehicle and make sure it’s safe to be on the road. Whether your mattress falls off, or you’re missing a tire, other drivers on the road are being put at risk of being injured.
