I will have to post some from the actual shoot when they are released. :-)
From this from an earlier earlier shoot. This time we shooting with classic cars. Which means we need to find 12 different old mustangs. :-)

I always liked the NSX. I knew if they ever came out with another one it would be a really hot car.

These motorists, whom we are not identifying, endured a very frightening moment shortly before 11 a.m. today as they were driving on Route 95 southbound in Topsfield. A landscaper driving a dump truck in front of them had failed to properly secure an axe, which flew off the truck and struck the windshield of the car behind it. Thankfully, the axe only went halfway through the windshield. The passenger who is partially seen in the photo was shaken up (who wouldn't be?) but not injured. Trooper Joseph Risteen of the Newbury Barracks responded to the scene and cited the truck driver, who is from Peabody, for failure to secure cargo, which carries a $200 fine. Two important lessons here: 1.) Contractors and all other motorists are reminded to properly secure items they are transporting, including tools, building materials, bicycles, canoes, luggage, furniture, beach chairs, and the like. 2.) The man whose car was struck was obeying the speed limit, driving about 65 mph. If he had been speeding, the increased velocity of his car would have increased the power of the axe's impact, meaning it could very well have gone through the glass and injured his passenger. Please remember those lessons. We are very thankful that this situation did not have a worse ending.

The driver should have sped up and passed the dumb son of a *****.
I never follow trucks like that.

That crap is an epidemic around here, nobody secures their load anymore, or just make a halfassed attempt. Its mind boggling some of the **** I see going down the roads, and apparently the cops never pull anyone over for it these days.
Saw this one a few years ago, and it seems mild compared to how bad its gotten now.

Absolutely! That's like following a dump truck full of gravel and getting mad when you get a rock chip. I refuse to follow anyone with a bunch of crap in the bed of their truck or the trailer they're pulling (which more often than not, is more than the tow vehicle can or should be handling).
