    Moral of the story is. Don’t enter other people’s property without permission.


    Trucker = Idiot
    Farmer = Idiot

    I agree. The driver was probably scared to get out of the truck. He never gave permission and that farmer was being sarcastic in asking for his consent. In any case he did not use ordinary care in moving the truck. Because the truck engine was running it may need a complete rebuild costing maybe $20,000? Plus the damage to radiator water pump etc and the body work. Not cool.

    On the plus side, the driver didn't get shot. :)

    Some people don't seem to understand that because someone is one your property that doesn't give you free license to do whatever you want. Maybe a judge would have awarded the property owner $1000 for damage to lawn, but causing up to $30,000 damage to the rig is not going to fly.

    Things didn't go the truckers way....blame the farmer. Let's all remember had the trucker not gotten dumb first....the farmer wouldn't have been given the opportunity.
