OK experienced drivers, post your most recent rookie mistake!

Thats awesome!!!! Lol

 

I did the hose thing too....only the electrical ambilical fell off in the main thruway of a d.c and everybody took turns running it over.lol....never did it again
A spare is always a good idea tho

 

Actually, that is THE #1 biggest mistake any driver can make, newbie or veteran.

 

Ahmen..brother......that andforgetiing your trailer number after u scale and go in for the ticket....I try to make that a habit.lol

 

happens quite often in the LTL world, which baffles my mind. But when youre tired, anything can happen. I hear a glad hand coming through the back glass will make you have to change your skivvies

 

Thats why yard dogs have broken windshields ....lol

 

OK havent scaled in AZ since I dont remember--so why?

 

I did something similar once, but while walking around the truck. I was checking the curbside tires at night and didn't realize how steep the side of the ramp was. Next thing I know I've rolled 15 feet down an incline into a ditch lol. The sad part was I fell again when I got back to the top and rolled only halfway down the second time.

 

Something similar, just the other day. Hooked a trailer at night, used the work lights. It's a flatbed setup so the light are higher up and to the side for the headache rack/gear storage. Left them on for about 60 miles before I realized it. I did wonder why I could see the road spray off my tires so well in the mirrors a few times.
