<p>[QUOTE="Localtrucker1234, post: 12233823, member: 339420"]I was recently backing a trailer into a dock driver side alley dock. And previously I had opened the doors and made sure they where open and secure. Keep in mind the company I work for has very poorly maintained trucks and trailers. So as I was backing the truck the door on my blind side for my trailer had opened because the hooks are not hooks anymore they’re just bent and do not hold the doors. As I backed into the dock I did not notice the door was open because it was on my blind side and I broke the warehouse door. My question is who is responsible for paying for the damages and can I get in any sort of trouble for this it my company had told me they would make me pay for all damages and to keep it in house. I’m very worried because I believe that it wasn’t my fault because the trailers hooks where already messed up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
