Driving down the mountain from Petionville to our home on Delmas 75, you often see dump trucks loaded down with natural limestone mined from the mountains. Here, I was driving behind one of these dump trucks and noticed that the left set of dual wheels wobbled quite a bit. On a closer look, I could see that the right set of wheels were not much better. The inner wheel of the right set of dual tires was totally worn down to the bare inner support. I had my camera with me so could take this video. Can you imagine what the brakes are like?!!! This is the way many of the trucks travel up and down the mountain here in Port-au-Prince. Please pray for the safety of the people in the way of these trucks.
