Oversize load Roatan Style



We have all seen or been behind the big flatbed tractor trailer hauling something down the road. Slow in the way terrible.

Well Roatan is no different except. Of course Roatan still has a way of making things unique.

In the picture to the left you see a bulldozer on the back of a flat bed semi trailer. They are heading down the Flowers Bay Road and as you can tell there are a lot of electric, phone and cable wires crossing the road. Unfortunately the wires are al little lower than the top of the bull dozer.

Don't worry mon they have it figured out. They pull up to the wire and the two guys on the bulldozer pick up the wires and pull them over the top of the cab. As you can see from the many wires they have a lot to grab.

I am no electrical expert but it would seem dangerous. Trish Gonzalez, Cindy and I watched this for 15 minutes (yes stuck behind them in traffic) and saw no disaster so it must be business as unusual here in Roatan.
