    Please... I used to drive for them. Crazy #### happens around those trucks, but even THEY aren't capable of something THAT crazy...

    When I drove OTR, I always preferred to back in next to another truck, for one thing it cuts the odds of someone backing into me in half because now only one side of my truck is exposed, and also it makes it easier for the next guys coming in so they aren’t forced to back in between two trucks.

    Of course, I was always a quiet, respectful neighbor and I made it a point to never hit the truck I was backing next to.
