The point being, some think hitting another truck is no big deal. If hitting a trucks mirror is no big deal then that attitude transfer to local work where depending what ur doing u will be in residential areas delivering with impossible turns to make and stuff like that.. Those are the drivers that tear up everything . Ones that think tearing up stuff is just "part of the job" is part of the problem those of us who own the equipment have to sleep with our eyes open when parked at the truckstop for the night... hitting someone else's truck is a big deal and you should be punished heavily for it... I have never hit another truck. Ever. Or a trailer. But have been backed into multiple times. As well wrecked my own truck on my own terms. But never have I damaged anybody else's equipment, because I have respect towards my fellow drivers.

Respect toward others is pretty rare this days.
It happens, but it's rare.singlescrewshaker, Crusader66, God prefers Diesels and 1 other person Thank this. -
Almost all carriers are going to treat a broken or damaged mirror as an internal incident. Same with a busted windshield. Learn from this and do your best to not hit or damage another vehicle ever again.

Not being mean but there's no way you're ready to move to local after one year, especially if you're already hitting other trucks.....
