    Uhh no he never asked you who your trainer was. You asked him who his trainer was and he told you his name is Perry, and then you responded with "why you ask". Which is why we all confused lol

    Actually, go back and look. You asked me who my trainer was, not the other way around

    Just had a Millis go past me (still have the involuntary wave thing going). So when did they start putting the orange piece on the trailer tails, never saw that when I was there.

    Personally I figure it might just be a waste of money. If you can't remember to open a trailer tail in the first place I don't see you being able to remember that you are not seeing an orange flag in the mirror.

    I just ran into a Millis driver the other night in Indiana, and he was telling me about those. I think it's hilarious. He said they were to remind drivers that the tails were open so they didn't back them into a dock door. But i suppose they probably serve both purposes. @keen98 commented once about tails and dock doors. Like him, i don't understand how that happens. You have to open your trailer doors before you dock, so that issue should be self-cancelling. But hey, what do I know :biggrin_2559:

    I just got a taste of toll expenses, holy crap. I was on 76 in PA from I70 to I81. 113 bucks. Bend over, driver. We got roads to fix (although they clearly don't care about fixing them).

    Yeah I never considered the backing up part, probably because it is just unimaginable to me that anyone could forget to open the rrailer doors before docking.

    It happens though. Just like me, I'm sure you remember the accident reports. I never understood why those were made public. So unnecessary.
