    So there I was sleeping at the J in west Memphis when i was awoken by a jolt i get up and look out my window and see a CR England
    Trailer scrapping up against my door I tried blowing the air horn but since I had been during all day doing a restart all the air had drained out I hit the city horn and the guy pulls forward. I get out of my truck and noticed dumb nuts had broken my door handle right off the guy gets out off his truck and comes back to check out the damage. I tell him WTF you hit my truck he looked at me like it was my fault and said something to the effect of I couldn't see the angle I the tell him come on man g.o.a.l. I know they teach you that in school. He then says let me pull off to the dude and we will exchange info I say ok and go back to my truck to get my glasses and something to write with since i couldn't get in through the drivers side because of the broken handle i go to the pass. side my back
    turned for more than a min. when the guy takes off. So i do all the necessary things file a report and call my dispatch who get CRE on the line of course b/c I didn't get any info of the guy they said they can't help. Didn't have time to grab a trl or trk ## my dispatcher asked them if they were able to see all their trucks in the area and which were moving at the time of Ruhr accident they said they weren't which i call bs a company that size should have no problem telling us what trucks they have in the area and then have no issue narrowing it down. I'm working with the management of the flying j to identify the driver maybe he went inside or fueled up before trying to park but I'm not getting my hopes up. So now I'm just hoping I don't get in trouble because of this since this is the second time i been hit while parked.

    What did you learn?

    And your company will address it when they pay the bill.

    They'd be in court if it were my truck.

    How far could he have gotten? you couldnt ask someone to get the truck number on the cb? Someone hit my new truck out in Beaumont Tx years ago on the front row of Petro. Nobody saw anything.

    Yea i should of done either one of those things but the guy woke me from a dead sleep and was still half asleep when I got out of the truck. Pissed off at myself that I didn't at least get his trl ##. Was hoping I would at least get help from CRE but I guess they have no problem with their drivers committing crimes in their trucks.

    you could also go talk to the manager and ask them if they have a video of the parking lot around that time and see if there is a record of it that way too.

    Did ask then but he said they were in the process of up grading their cameras all they have is a wide angle shoot of the parking lot and it's not very detailed

    Cr England normally come across as a good outfit.This is the first I have heard
    of any company driver affiliated with them causing a truck stop incident?Hmmmm..
    Strange....
    :biggrin_25517:

    Seriously you should have cuffed him on the spot..That was a hit n run they normally
    train for and you probably were not ready ..
    That guys gonna be training soon,now that he's passed company orientation.
    Ive never paid any attention to the cr england crest,but doesnt it have a truck running over another truck?

    Lmao i needed a good laugh thanks. Yea i know cre is a crap company but didn't think a guy would risk losing his job and possibly his license over something like this. Oh and the CRE crest only has a truck on it's side in the ditch nothing on it about a hit and run
     
    RALPHMANBEARPONY Thanks this.

    I thought the CRE crest had a picture of a student getting bent over and sodomized by a rolled up lease agreement...

    CRE has good and bad drivers, just like any other company. I work for CRE (at least for a couple more days), and one of my former students woke up to a Werner truck hitting hers and taking off. Werner didn't lift a finger to help her, either.
