Driver towing boat doesn't notice stopped traffic during rush hour on I-270, and rear-ends semi. Force of accident dislodges boat.

Force of accident dislodges cigar-boat from its owner

I hope it was his boat and that he wasn't transporting it for someone else. That could be one heck of a bill to fix the hull and other damage I would assume.

Note to self: When hauling drug-boats, lay off the product.

I doubt it hurt the hull, probably messed up the outdrives or lower units, though.
