In April, near New Orleans, motorcyclist Charles Warren, minding his own business in the left lane of Interstate 12, was hit by a bathtub (which had fallen from a pickup truck in the right lane) and was hospitalized with severe injuries. [Reuters, 4-11-07] [Times- Picayune, 4-9-07]
 
That sux. We have a lot of trucks hauling loose items and farm equipment. I nearly got nailed in the head when a van hit a planter being pulled by tractor in front of me. I was waiting on a chance to pass and luckily ducked as the parts flew overhead.

Here is the article I found. We have a bit of this happening around here with all of the construction going on in the area. You know how it goes, give someone a hammer and they think they're a carpenter...

Louisiana State Police spokesman Louis Calato told Nola.com that a 72-year old motorcyclist hit a bathtub on I-12 near Covington that had fallen off of a pick-up truck Saturday, critically injuring the rider, Charles Warren of Robert.

Warren was treated at St. Tammany Parish Hospital.

Shain Autumn, 32, of Springfield, was cited with negligent injury and driving with an unsecured load, Calato said.
