    PHOTOS: Driver "has trouble parking" at Loves
    [​IMG]

    HOW!?!? WHY?!?!

    WTF?!?!

    Really, I think this "driver" put the "Blind" in "blind-side backing". I'm not sure I'd trust this guy with a bus pass, let alone a CDL. Article says the driver responsible for this hot mess was arrested but doesn't mention why.

    This story just illustrates why first cousins should never marry...

    Most likely passed out from being high on drugs, drunk, or just fell asleep because the speed wore off after 3 days of nonstop driving.

    To be fair, I've had dreams of something like this happening to me because the steering locked while I was backing and I was unable to push in the clutch for some reason...

    I guess I’m gonna have to be the first to say it. E-logs. The time ticking down on the screen sent him into a panic.

    That was my presumption as well. It's the only thing that makes sense.
