Members of the law enforcement community have some stories.

The Iowa State Patrol Commercial Vehicle Unit decided to post one of those bizarre stories on their Facebook page.

The post showed what it called “interesting repairs.”

Troopers found during an inspection that not only did this truck driver use coffee cups to replace two wheel ends, but a wheel fastener was also close to coming off.

Neither the names of the company or driver were disclosed in the social media post.

As the post stated, “Remember, proper repairs can prevent a lot of hassle down the road.”
