    Most the backing accidents occurs at truckstops.It happens and the main thing is that you learn from it.

    I agree with marmonman. Not hitting things doesn't make one lucky. There is never an excuse to hit things. Especially in a parking lot. Get your lazy fat ### out of the truck and look. I'm not the best driver but I've also never hit or backed into anything. The OP calls it a little accident. Tell that to the driver he backed into. This guy now will possibly lose revenue while getting his truck fixed. No worries right? It's just a little accident.

    Some of you perfect drivers need to do some P/DC work for a couple of years. We'll see how 'perfect' you'll remain after that.

    Yup, driving in the city making deliveries half awake will get you in some incidents. Did 5 yrs Otr no accidents or anything. Went foodservice, Fstuff up! Had 3 strikes in one month after a year there. Back to road Linehaul, clean record again after almost 3yrs including driving thru wyoming I80 every night these past 2 winters and some i70. I'll stay out of the city its not for big trucks. Too many things can go wrong.

    P/DC separates the boys from the men. Anyone can drive on a rural highway and remain accident free. Hell, even my 6-year-old step daughter could do that.

    Zero defect now makes one a dumb arse?

    There's good karma and bad karma, I'm guessing you're talking about the good.
