    Hi,

    I'm a noob. Second week out. Turned too sharp and my trailer took out a pole in a chain link fence at about 2 miles an hour. The trailer is fine and the fence will probably be very cheap to fix.


    How does Prime classify this? What can I expect to happen to me?


    Thanks in advance,

    I've heard about this. Look, be honest. There is a firing squad. But, if you're nice, it'll be a clean head shot. God be with you my friend. See you on the other side.

    I don't think 2mph matters. If anything it's worse. You were going that slow and still didn't see it before you hit it?

    Call safety 1st thing in the morning, tell them what happened, provide any pictures you took, you will probably get a slap on the hand. DON'T cover anything up, thats what will get you in trouble with them.
