    I hope it wasn't you doing the driving, the driver will have a hard time finding work, I hope the injured man is ok

    There just isn't much to say to that article. Just a reminder to all of us to be careful. But things do happen. Without having more information on it, there's just no way to say who screwed up. Easy to point to the driver, but I'd be willing to bet that not a one of us has not had some idiot dart between our trailer and a dock that we were backing into. And maybe that isn't what happened either. . .:biggrin_2557:

    He died. :(

    Yeah, he had the link in bold which deactivates it because in editor mode it's surrounded by BBC code and the computer can't recognize the http://.


    Back to the accident, I wonder what the guy was doing back there? A grocery warehouse, usually there are more than one trailer docked and that area is not normal walking lanes. Maybe he was trying to jump up on the dock and messed up?? I guess we'll never know.
