I've gone some places I shouldn't have when I first started. Get lost because of construction zone but no workers around to ask. I cleared a wrought iron fence by about 6 inches and a telephone pole with the trailer by about two.
I never want to do that again. Now I will put my flashers on and stop till I figure out the RIGHT way to go. -
Its happened to us all. The ones that are still here stopped the truck, calmed down, got out, assessed the situation, and made a decision.
From the looks of the trailer, he knew he hit it about 10-15 feet from the nose and chose to keep on going. And had the building not hooked him, he would have. -
