Here is the story per driver :
Backed in for unloading , door was wide open all the time , construction co was doing wiring for lighting doing piping and left one pipe hanging , after unloading driver was driving out and that pipe cut tarping system open .
Is it construction co fault ?! Should they be liable for this or its totally driver fault .i think its construction co fault , we decided to wait till morning and talk to supervisor and see what the outcome be .Attached Files:

I would say it's the driver. If the piping fell on the truck it would be the construction company. With it being a stationary object the driver should have seen it.
Unless I read it wrong and the pipe wasn't stationary...Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this. -
What did the supervisor say?
C'mon Pav, don't leave us hanging!!! -
Supervisor said : we have to investigate this issue and his story was : we did find out only when all happened , driver was pulling out and happened to be very close to the scissor lift with some pipes inside that made damage .
Its clearly drivers fault and unfortunate situation for the equipment owner , damages probably in $1000 range replacing the tarp panel , problem is that he is so far away and without proper securement it can cause even more damage , at the moment conestoga strapped to the front headboard with 5 straps and truck is heading toward home as regular flat for repair .... Not sure if i can take it anymore ...JonJon78 Thanks this. -
Maybe you should remove the conestoga and give the driver some 8 foot drop tarps -
JonJon78 Thanks this.
