Someone Stuffed a Honda Passport in a U-Haul With a Single Ratchet Strap A state trooper stopped the driver when they saw the truck driving along State Route 97, just north of Okanogan, with an SUV hanging out of the back. Attempting to keep the Passport in the truck was nothing but a thick ratchet strap, which ultimately kept the rear tires from touching the ground and the SUV from falling out of the back and becoming an enormous safety hazard for other motorists. |

Full marks to the air traffic controller for his ability to talk a total novice onto the ground safely. He must be a shining star of an instructor. I do hope the authorities manage to track the passenger and give him a suitable award.

All too regular an event during the summer months. Stag/hen parties, graduation celebrations, family holidays, private boats, working boats etc. have all done this over the years. It only takes a few moments of inattention and the boat lands on the upper gate cill, tips up and very rapidly fills with water. Fortunately most such events just render possessions and people being soaked plus a ruined holiday.
