    Since you don't pull for Prime, I guess you're talking out of somewhere behind and below your belt.

    Abandoned...

    Now we don't know the back story to that pic. When s/he pulled in there might have been a swift trick on either side and s/he was worried that their nose might get rounded off in the morning by them leaving.

    That was a 1-1/2-foot high concrete retaining wall that the driver slammed the trailer over. The mudflaps were lying in the parking lot. The Pilot staff said they had to threaten the driver with the police because he was yelling about how bad Celedon was. It had been there for about a week when I snapped the shot.

    Now that isn't to say that Celedon is a bad carrier - maybe the driver just was having a bad life. But it's real easy to say some carrier is ###$#-up when you're on the outside looking in after listening to the truckstop crowd BS about how bad it is - they'll say the same thing about the next carrier they're at too.

    wow, didn't realize it was that big of a wall. I thought it was more like a standard curb. Hope someone looked over that trailer before it continued service.

    18" high wall and he just rolled the trailer tires up and over it...I realize grade school science may not have been your major but think about how high or low the center of a trailer axle is and take it from there.

    I suppose you're going to tell us he blocked/ramped it up next!

    I have no idea how the moron got it up there - no tire tracks in the soft dirt and grass behind the trailer. A lot of rubber on the edge of the retaining wall. You tell me how he got it there - I don't think he was wanting to be "careful." I do suppose he wanted to tear off the ICC bumper.

    I got a tape measure out just to see what the height of the wall was...

    I'll bet you did...can you read a tape measure properly?

    A whole foot and a half and it magically jumped up and over the curb WOW!

    It's your story truck driver, you have to believe it.
