Yeah that's not correct. If you fail to properly secure your cargo and it comes off of your vehicle, that's a finable offense, and the operator who failed to secure their cargo would be responsible for damages.

If you're responsible for damage caused by snow you failed to clear off of your car, you are certainly responsible for damage caused by unsecured buckets of concrete on your vehicle. For Pete's sake, they're practically just loose cannonballs if the truck is traveling at highway speeds.

No it’s not correct but good luck convincing a trooper to go looking for the guy. Trooper took info and shrugged and said “better call your insurance company.”
