Help with blind Alley/Bay dock

I would consider the question.

There are a number of indoor docking required when you had to back inside the bay of the Logan Aluminum in KY (County) and there the crane or forklift big enough to load you will be able to get to you really nice and easy out of the heat, rain, snow and cold.

A long time ago I used to bolt on a large yellow amber lenses equipped light about as big as a motor cycle light. Clamp that to the trailer frame under the box behind the tandems and twist western union into a pair of taillight wires for power. Next thing I see is everything back there minus a few moving shadows etc.

I would have loved to make it a pernament installation, but it would consume a roll of duct tape, a spool of wire, snippers and clamp and so on (A little over a foot long, squeeze until tight and not going anywhere) and something with power under that trailer. Run a second to frame for ground.

Bosses used to wonder what in the world is going on back there, Gremlins chewing on the wiring set. =) Now they know.

 

me too, i couldn't judge the distance well enough

uh...huh

what was really irksome, when i had to do a liquor delivery in CT, the dock guy shine the dock light right into my mirror...

i got out, went up on the dock, and nearly tore it off it's base.

i need not be blinded "by the light",,,,,,,

 

Lol I like when the forklift guy is there waiting on the dock with his headlights going toward mirror.

 

that's when a hammer will help you make an adjustment for him....

 

Some companies have reflective tape for backing inside a building. I think they all should.

 

Look out for the UPS or FedEx man that shot in that hole while you were walking back to your truck.
I've had that happen to me before.

Someone told them at some point they're not required to wait in line.

In that case.. GOAL doesn't work.

 

Yeah.. I backed up to the edge and blocked him in for a while.
