The Truckers’ Report flatbed Hall of Shame.

He rode it out though!

 

Up right and breathing, anymore would just be complaining and nobody wants to hear about that. Still cashing checks.

 

Thats dependent on actual damage. Would have to look closer. But in a short video, I would say yes. Unbelievable whats fixable. Probably 10 shops in Detroit and Cleveland that would press the rail back, fish plate the webbing, or cut out and section. If really bad, arch and strap it to hid damage. Well, that ones getting the left rail arched and strapped definitely. Id never do one for a repair. Do both and have a really strong trailer when done.

Fixed correctly, it could be better. Going to Ritchie Bros? Push it back, arch and paint. New owner will find it when he loads a big single.


I doubt it broke the frame, maybe some crossmembers. That's a small coil.

 

Lmao. I always thought that would happen to me so I always stood on the ground when unloading coils.

 

Never had to haul a coil.
The trucking angels must love me.

 

95% of the places I go, you stand on the trailer. Unless I see a operator that i choose to get off the trailer. Which has happened. I'm letting some rum dum decide were to place it on my trailer. And if they come down fast or roll it into the racks, I'm chewing butt. My regulars are very respectful and so am I
I do my best to make their job easy, and I get the same in return.

 

Seen on FB. It just get worse with every look

 

Don't see that everyday.

 

I Dont hate the concept, but clearly this is not how you do it in application...

 

That's how I do it.
Makes life easier.
