dock backing fail

I would have run over there and asked what's wrong with the trailer. giving him the benefit of the doubt.

NOT sit and laugh at him, at it would let him know something was wrong, IF he didn't already

but, that's how we did things WAY back in the day.

 

The trailer was doing the bunny hop.

 

It's a "short" video, so there is a maximum time limit, I think 1 minute.

 

@expedite_it any suggestions?

 

Ha ha ha that’s was funny

 

The man with the plan

 

I wouldn’t have watched and laughed either. I also wouldn’t have given any benefit of doubt.

Would have sounded something like…”Wtf, just stop and I’ll teach you how to slide your $&@-@&$?! Trailer tandem”

 

Great way to destroy a trailer

 

And $5k in tires.

 

They think it's drivers flat spotting the trailers. And to a point, they're right.

The problem is the new trailers take a long time to air up - a solid 10 to 15 seconds between releasing the brake button and the brakes actually releasing. If a drivers doesn't wait and starts pulling as soon as they put the buttons in the tires will drag for 5-10 feet.

The biggest culprit? Yard jockeys. They're trying to get their moves done and don't care about the tires. Add in the yard truck is geared so you don't feel the tires aren't rolling until you turn and it's no wonder the number of flat spots. Then toss our idiots on top . . .
