    The video was on another thread, "Stopped like a corvette." I'd hate to see what any pallets in that trailer looked like after a stop like that.

    He's checking his bumper, I'd be checking my shorts !

    It didn't look like they touched, but I guess they did.

    Good aware driver but a little over dramatic with the hands. Grandma was already scared enough. All the name calling in the world isn't going to change a thing. Yes I would be upset too but try to regain composure. All this talking to yourself and hand jesters over the years build up inside a driver. I would of had an incident report written up by police if possible because you know there is a good possibility of a freight claim.

    His only mistake was no 4-ways. That should be done without thinking.
