Tape up your glad hands?

Don’t worry, if you get out of the truck you won’t ever make it back in. Just like a trailer fire, pull the pin and go! the landing gear and air line will work themselves out.

 

If that happens im popping the red,pulling the pin, and dropping the clutch. The truck can pull the lines apart for me. Lol!

 

To bad we can’t have a device that allows us to drop the trailer free from the truck without getting out and just let them have the trailer.
But the best part of this device would be that when you sever a cord it sets a timer on 2 tons of dynamite in the floor that allows just enough time for them to get the back door open and a couple dozen inside the trailer before boom.
No gladhand taping nessesary.

 

Many trucks have a pneumatic fifth wheel release right on the dash.

 

Many SHUNT trucks maybe, OTR trucks I think that is an illegal device.

 

Not illegal. Many OTR Trucks come from the factory with them. I've been issued two of them with a major carrier. Lots of wives tales out there!

 

Mine are all on quick connects and go to the landing gear, can’t reach without getting under the trailer in between that and drives. I’ll have them run over before they get a chance to pull a line

 

Not a good idea to run them over. That FedEx driver driving and killing “protestor” is going to be fired from his job and prosecuted. And even if he’s found not guilty in court it’s going to cost him few bucks. Not to mention his mental state. If you don’t believe me look at the case of general Flynn. Either way, you can’t win the mob. Cheaper and less time consuming to surrender the truck.

 

he’ll walk if it’s in front of a jury. And there are plenty of other companies out there to work for

better to be tried by 12 then carried by 6

 

I would rather be tried by 12 THAN carried by six. I would suck to go through the whole trial and be carried by 6 anyways.
