I saw this while driving to work, I was not sure if I should be impressed or scared.

I do sometimes go two high.
But I did see a pile of laders slide off a truck when he took a coner in a busy intersection, Im just glad no one got hurt and it wasn't me.

"Be afraid! Be very afraid!!"

"I'm scared, Sarge!"
"We're all scared, son."

OOPS!!

Stay well clear of that van !!!

Amaging that catching an orange light and going too fast around the corner.

FLIP !!!!

Bob either stop following me or leave your camera at home.

It appears from the 2nd picture that there's not even a passenger in the van

And guess what...the next ladder he uses will be the bottom one!

But he's got an orange flag on the end of the load.

Your right.

I don't think anyone was ridding shotgun.

When I passed him it turned out to young guy dressed like a painter and looked about 5' tall and 100 lbs......OK a bit bigger but small none the less.

I would hope he used real cation on the off and on ramps.

For locals this was 495 South, the on ramp you see is from 24 South.

Does he hire out on the side as a ladder truck for the local fire department ?

Firesign Theatre, John?

Off to the scrap yard with all those stolen alum ladders. Today he meets the overhead mark and still has three extra ladders to sell...

I often refer to things like this as "An episode of CHiP's waiting to happen." 'Da, da da, dan, dah' Come on whistle the theme, you know it....

The trick is to put ladders up all the way around the room you are painting so that you can keep your rhythm going. You don't want to get lines from where the paint dried before you get the ladder moved to the next spot.

Or it may be a tall room and he sets it up like Donkey Kong.

Bob:
This guy has a friend down here in NJ.....
Southbound GSP, 6:30 AM, once or twice a week. I get by him real quick too.

John
