    Honestly I couldn't tell. And I didn't think it was a good idea to snap a picture with the company types out there but it looked liked the drives were too close to right hand side and it angled the trailer enough for him to lose traction.

    How thebheck did he get his DRIVES hung up on anything? I could see losing sight of the trailer (not understand, but see how it's possible) but the drives?

    Stuff like that happens a lot. Some schmuck rearranged the concrete blocks at the dtc a few weeks ago. You can see the marks at all the OC gates where 'drivers' became 'driveWAS' by doing something stupid. We all need to slow the heck down and drive smart and I definitely include myself in that.

    Today I managed 580 miles while only having 10:15 minutes on my 70 at the start of the day. Cake up thru Charlotte and WV to Zanesville OH in the rain almost the whole way. Smart play would have been to stop an hour or so away a the Pilot. Dumb would have been to push onto the rest area 15 miles away and.overnight there. I went with extremely ####ing stupid and made delivery because CSR asked nicely and said they did away with the "no outbound parking " rule. I knew better, I pushed anyways and ended up with 2 minutes left shutting down. Customer will be happy that OTD occurred but I shouldn't have taken the risk for anything. That's how stupid #### happens.

    Better find out now - it will probably be a three week wait to get in the shop for bunk heater repairs in a week or two.
