    I'll do what I can, but no promises :biggrin_2559: My windows and mirrors are covered in salt, and it took me 4.5 hours to go 205 miles. Welcome to winter trucking, sheesh.

    It's not even their fault. That's what's sad. I never blame the drivers. I blame the company for putting them on the road. It's unbelievable :biggrin_25513:

    If someone damages equipment, or property, and then drives off, I blame driver.

    I hear ya, and I agree with you 100% What I was referring to was the lack of training that led to the trailer being hit in the first place. That isn't the driver's fault. The fault of a poorly trained driver lies squarely on the company that trained them.
