Reply to comment by lunar_unit in A pickup just lost it's fully loaded trailer on the Belvidere bridge by wmrusclmbr
You know, there are worse hills to die on. Those were simpler times, back when Ron was blasting the RTD comment section on every article every day.

It was hilarious how random the comments would be, too.
Dude would post the most bizarre, depressing hot takes about trailers and referring to people he’s never met (sometimes making it sound like it was his own children) in accidents on things like announcing the birth of someone’s child or a community event.
Respect for being passionate about a public safety issue, but cringe on just plastering the comment section on completely unrelated stories.

I think I met him once; he was working at Macy’s I think in menswear. His family actually had been killed by a trailer from what he told me if I recall correctly.

Checks out, I’ve read stories here from people who talked to him at JOS A Bank (or something like that).

Can confirm he fitted me for a suit at Jos a bank. And then years later was my Uber driver one rainy night !

Hope the guy has some peace about life by now. I can’t imagine how tough his life may’ve been.

I thought someone looked into it and no such thing happened? There were a lot of posts on him years back.

Maybe, dunno. Thought I remembered him saying it happened on Hull Street road.
