Frankly I don't think that was actually possible to get far with that rig. The really narrow track of the dolly and the high COG makes it hard to believe that the tub wasn't about to tip over just being parked at the side of the road at the slight angle it is.
Rounding a corner would have been impossible. Something is up here and I think it involves the cop and his dept's FB account.
Look under the hand truck and you will see 2 things: a swivel caster turned sideways so that it would be skidding and there are no tracks in the gravel; and an unidentified object propping the rig up from underneath almost dead center on the hand truck.
I scanned a dozen sites with this story and there is only
one picture (the one I show) and a video from a motorist passing by. This stinks.
