U-Haul Truck and SUV Impounded, Driver Cited for Dangling Vehicle

The driver of a small U-Haul truck with an SUV dangling out its backside with only one tow strap attached to it faces numerous citations

State Patrol troopers circulated photos on social media of the vehicle from a traffic stop Monday on U.S. Hwy 97 south of Pateros.

The driver was reported to have a suspended license, and U-Haul reported the truck was long overdue for return and was about to be reported stolen.

Both the U-Haul truck and the SUV were impounded, while the driver was cited for not using safety chains to tow the SUV and was ticketed $139.
