    As someone who worked construction for 15 years I hope they build it better than the first guy did .. There's no way a empty trailer should pull the the whole structure down on a properly built house .. Maybe dot should read posts like this before considering changing rules to let junk companies have drivers running single on a learners permit like some are asking for

    That would just be a pivot point for the trailer.

    In other news, there is a job opening at TransAm if anyone is looking.

    I'm going to have to call BS! Sorry but I'm betting he new he hit the house and was hoping he could get out with out anyone finding out it was him, And there would be no way he'd no if someone was in the house that might have been killed! /if they EVER give him a CDL again, that should be criminal as well, Total lack of concern for the safety of others!!, SO! glad they found this...WEll I wont state what I want to call him, Mods would delete anyways, But if he'd would have gotten out, he would have told TransAm, "OH! I hit a poll"
