That would be very hard to catch, dark at night and in the shadows, I HOPE someone catches them and uses the dark and shadows to beat them to death.
Ktrucker43 Thanks this. -
Thats wrong and I don't know why they would even do that
-
I can't figure out why someone would do that. There is no gain in it for the people cutting the lines -- all it does is cost the driver and the consumer if they ruin enough loads this way. Seems pretty senseless to me -- but then all vandalism and malicious destruction of property seems senseless to me.
trucker43 Thanks this. -
I've had my unit shut off twice by other drivers. They don't like the noise I guess...............
-
Thats one thing to shut them down but tog and cut hoses.... no that ain't right
trucker43 Thanks this. -
I would assume they are cutting them and draining the fuel out. The lines on a refer tank come out the bottom of the tank don't they?
trucker43 Thanks this. -
speak rudely to a lot lizard, and see what happens. It doesn't happen everywhere...but these girls can cause a lot of damage...they will pull your kingpin out, mess with temp control settings, which I found out from Stevens Transport is an automatic federal offense; only problem is, the catching them part.
trucker43 Thanks this. -
I would agree. Also possible animal right activist too..
I was out fishing once and they cut all my tires truck and trailer.. -
No most have the lines out of the top of the tank
