So this trailer was fine in the morning when the pretrip was done ( according to the driver) but later in the day the crack developed and rusted. The quality of the image may not be good enough but at high res you can see that the insides of the crack are rusted - there is no shiny metal indicating a fresh break. And this trailer was hauling down the roads beside your families and mine.
Why does it seem like no one Pretrips?

Iont kno but a lot of company driver stop caring about pre trip when they realize they've been lied to since they went 2 truccn school + as they see it it's the companies name on the side of the rig, not theirs......lol

If there's one thing I never forget to check it's the fifth wheel. I've heard stories of people getting their fifth wheels released in truck stops.
To the guy wanting a creeper: Just find Flo the Waitress. Plenty of creepers around when she makes a post! -

Mixed opinion....
Personally, what I typically do is a walk around every morning. Checking lights, tires, looking for spills, look at fifth wheel (#### pranksters), check oil and coolant level, you know...obvious things. Once a week (normally right after my 34 hour reset Ill do a full pretrip where I check everything
