Deliver your load trucker, get your head cracked open.
When was the last time you got your head cracked open for doing your job?
Clayton Agostini started off September 15, 2009 like it was any other day however this day would end with a beating and eating bad food at the hospital, which just totally disgust me! He just finished up a delivery in the Union Industrial Estate, which leads to the Trinidad Generation Unlimited (TGU) power plant being built to supply the Alutrint aluminum smelter stalled by a court order.
You see earlier last week some 350 workers downed tools to demand better terms and conditions of work. The company responded by locking out workers last Friday. Work on the $708 million power plant has been stalled since. I could see how this would piss off a group of workers who just wanted what was right for them
Clayton Agostini had just finished his delivery and was on his way out of the park when a angry group of protesters started to slam his truck with rocks, being blinded by glass he stepped out of his truck and was smashed in the head with a rock. Which sounds similar to the Reginald Denny beating during the Los Angeles riots back in the ninety’s. It is total fu#ked in both cases.
One of the protesters said “We were meeting in front of the gate and the truck wanted to go in, so we asked the driver to wait a bit but he just drove by, bouncing the man, and didn’t even stop.” No one could confirm if this even happened, no police reports where filed. Even if it did happen how about calling the fu@king cops and deal with the situation in a rational way. Yes you motherfuc^er$ are out of work, that sucks, I understand but damn. One thing is for sure, if this was my truck, in this situation the report would have been more like “trucker kills thirty protesters trying to save his life”
What would you do in this situation, would you take a as$whipping or roll a son of a b!tch over?

I would have ran every one of them sum bitches over!! It is not the truckers fault they are out of work. Let him do his job for crying out loud!!
i would roll the sombitch over and they still be lookin for my ass
OH I would defiantly get out with my Louisville slugger and ask questions later.
yes sir, my Company has a "drive on policy". I have my thought pattern trained for that policy as a spontaneous response as well…. Also 30 down wouldn't even make a dent in my overpopulated office space, but would be a good starter
Idling you could run over half the those people and not notice.
Sonny: Well what if something jumps out into the road and you need to stop?
Jack Crews: You don’t.
[Rig runs over something]
Sonny: What was that?
Jack Crews: A Mazda.
I would have deferentially be in jail ……… For running over a few of them
80000 lbs of a$$ whooping. Might now kill anyone but definitly putting the hammer down. Protestor bowling anyone?
You damn real,rollem over thats how I roll. Like when I was in the millitary,shoot first ask questions later.
absolutely,take the bat out,and start smashin heads in.you see this is the problem,people think truckers are wimps….its time to start makin a name for ourselves…..take no prisoners,
hellyeah roll their asses over. smash the gate with them sobs
F that shiznit…. Keep mutha f**kin driving. I believe our company also has a policy about not stopping when you're in danger. keep driving until you can get to a safe place right?
Hit the gas make a few new speedbumps and then tell the cops you couldn't see cuz of all the broken glass that hit you in the face!!!!
I'd roll the sumbitches over too, had enough sh*t from idiots who "think" they are "bada**es".
Wonder if they would have done that to a ladytrucker?
If your supid enough to stand in front of a big truck, you better have enough $$$ saved for you funeral, it would be a shame if your family would have to foot the bill for your dumb actions…. Poor driver, and poor truck. I wonder how many were arrested
All the isht we gota deal with, I def wuda dropped the hammer on those fools
I call Bullshit! It’s great to say “I’d roll a fucker” but the truth is that Clayton Agostini (the driver) would certainly have said the same thing if asked. The story about the incident stated that he was blinded by broken glass which means the truck isn’t moving.
I would love to jump on the bandwagon and make the same claims.. hell I would back up just to get a good run at them!.. truth of the matter is Reginald Denny and Clayton Agostini have proven that claim is not always legitimate. Safe travels to my fellow truckers!
Very nice blog! I remember this clip like it was yesterday. It made me angry. I work with the guy’s guy that turn their garage into a mancave, so I understand the mentality of guy who just wants to do his job and go home to his family safely. Keep up the good work.

Yes this is horrible and the crowd got carried away, but it takes but one asshole to cast the first stone and then the lemmings follow. I have had a horrible experience with the drive on idea, I had a going trying to hit me in a tanker and did I was trying to get away from him becuase I was in fear he was going to do something to me. The stupid asshole stopped in front of a fuel tanker in the middle of the freeway almost causing a pile up. Guess what folks..they aren’t just going to say ok go ahead, you have done no wrong. I am dealing with this still for about 7-8 months,I have lost a job I loved,made great money, and had just got a promotion to truck manager. I may loose my CDL and the only job I know how to do and I love driving. So please think twice before you do things, we are proffesional drivers which means we always will be held to a higher standard. The whole ordeal took maybe 2 minutes, 2 minutes I wish I could take back. Just think when you say things like the above comments, because if you are thinking that way you may make a wrong choice and then impact wil last alot longer maybe even forever. Just stop and think I beg all of you. Be safe and keep ‘em rolling!
