Now that's just disrepectful to TP the Dragon. That's our holy place.

Seriously though, I'm glad no one was hurt. That's not the road to take a spill on.

Glad no one was hurt, but I have no sympathy what so ever to any semi driver that ignores all the warnings and tries to take a rig down that road! What a frelling idiot!!

Authorities are questioning this man, Mr. Whipple, and he is suspected of causing this crash to fuel his toilet paper squeezing fetish.
