    If you are not sure, get help. That includes a call to dispatch and probably road service. Things will happen and break down. There is nothing you can do but get it fixed.

    If you had a hammer, you might force it to lock. But if it's your first day, get help.
    Everyone experiences breakdowns. It's part of the job. Don't feel bad. The company has plenty of $$$ put aside just for these things.

    You might be right John. They didn't make a Cascadia in 2004. Doh!

    We've given you the advice. Park it until it is fixed. Now I'm done.

    This is the second time I have fallen for it in less than 24 hours. He is getting better though.

    The earlier one today was his trailer sounded like a trapped animal when he put on the brakes. He liked animals so he didn't want to run the trailer.

    Huh? We told you what to do nicely and you get offensive?

    Just drive down the shoulder with your flashers on.

    You don't even know what kind of truck you have.

    It must be getting old creating emails and registering. Some just don't have better things to do.
