    Not a week goes by where you don't get 1-3 morons stating how they'd "show them and pull their pin" for this reason or that reason. It's beyond my comprehension this level of idiocy. Most will fall off before they get far out of the parking spot, but some could potentially stay on until the main roadway if everything is most downhill and loaded. There's plenty of other things you can do to show your anger, just make sure you're anger is properly directed.

    Every time I am out of the truck and especially if the truck is out of my sight I do a walk around before getting back in. Bump the tires and check the air lines and 5th wheel lock. Every time. I learned this the hard way but learn I did.

    Awesome, when can we expect the "Will a company hire me after charged with pulling the pin on a 5th wheel" thread?

    I agree with those FB comments, He should be charge with some serious charges, that could have deadly consequences. CDL should be revoked for life and some jail time is obviously warranted.
