Mistakes were made.
Instagrammer moy_monster captured a tense moment while driving to work earlier this week. A bucket truck was casually driving down a highway near El Paso, Texas with its bucket fully extended.

"After we shot video we sped up and let the driver know," moy_monster wrote in the Instagram comments. "He pulled over and everything was OK."
It's sort of like leaving the gas cap dangling off your car, except so much worse.
