    Probably lost air pressure or developed a leak at the brake chamber

    I think you meant, it pays to carry a grill on the truck in this situation. :biggrin_25522::biggrin_2559:

    I live close to I-80 west of donner pass, down by colfax actually. A week ago a trucker caught his brakes on fire, he had an extinguisher and it didnt help. If it wasnt such a cool summer he would have burned down a large chunk of the country side.

    I seen the bottom fall out of a loaded cattle truck one time while it was running down the road! Quite the gory mess. The State cops and the county cops were shooting the cattle to put them out of their pain.
