    You should have got out once you felt the bump, and checked. Actually, you should have got out before then and checked, before you hit it.

    You need to report it. Tell them you have scratches on the trailer. You think you scraped another trailer, but your not sure. They may write you up cor not reporting it right away. If you had reported it right away nothing woulda been said, other than just be more careful.

    Homesty is always the best policy.

    Professional drivers own up to mistakes, even stupid ones. Catch my drift. So when the finger pointing starts and it will if you stay in the business. See where I'm going with this.
