Low and behold IDOT had a jump scale set up in Franklin, ID... The main officer was a good guy though... He asked if I had noticed anything about my trailer tires. And I replied, Like the bald patches the size of Montana? He got a good chuckle from that. I explained that it was headed back to the yard about 1.5 hours away and that the had a whole new set waiting for it.
He then showed the rookie officers spoke some sage words and pointed to me, after which he walked up shook my hand and said to have a safe trip... But if any cables were showing they would have put me OOS. I smiled and said Thank you sir, have a good day... Then I jumped in the cab and started grabbing gears before he changed his mind.InTooDeep, homeskillet, dwells40 and 10 others Thank this. -

We just had an "incident" with a company driver and wildlife. It didn't end well for either. Immediately following said incident, a Safety message comes across the Fancy Thinkin' Box. Do Not, under any circumstances, swerve to avoid wildlife. Safety's new catch phrase...Grit and Grip. Which means, grit your teeth and simultaneously grip the steering wheel.
There 'ya go. Solution solved.InTooDeep, kemosabi49, austinmike and 11 others Thank this. -

Had an impact with a wild turkey in VA. Was back a way from the road, then decided to bow up and started to run then fly. Had the hood pete then. Never even let off the throttle. Hit the grill and got stuck under the headlight. Bent some chrome. For months I was “The Turkey Hunter”. Only lasted till the next animal strike, someone got a deer.
