OK experienced drivers, post your most recent rookie mistake!

See and THAT is the difference between y'all and an EXTREMELY EXPERIENCED driver such as MYSELF--
I AM NEVER LOST!--I am always--SOMEWHERE!
and just because I PERSONALLY may not KNOW where said SOMEWHERE is--does NOT qualify as LOST!

 

LOL only by a couple of inches on a paper map ----The USA one, not the city map.

 

You are only lost after you run out of fuel. Until then, it's just an adventure of discovery!

 

I built a bulkhead on the wrong trailer at our yard yesterday. Same load as mine, just the wrong one!

 

dangit man, that is some funny stuff right there...lmbo

 

Did you explain you just finished watching "Pay It Forward" the night before?

 

This is how it went. I backed up to my trailer withou hooking up and secured the load, all my dunnage was on my catwalk. I was planning on washing my truck before leaving, so I drove to the back side of the row my trailer was in and threw my dunnage on the trailer. Finished the bulkhead and did a walk around to make sure I didn't forget anything. Magically, the load got rid of all it's straps!

then it sunk in. "Whoops, wrong trailer!" Lol. It was a bit funny I admit.

 

Thought I got my bobtail stuck in the snow covered yard....I have super singles, so not such a far fetched scenario. After telling maintenance that I was stuck, they looked at my right side drives and wondered how I was able to move the truck 50 feet and still have a lump of snow on top of em......doh.

 

How do any of you expect to be inducted into the Super trucker hall of fame. Admitting these rookie mistakes. Yes super truckers may have them every blue moon, but admit them. I THINK NOT!!!

 

Oh there is so much more I can admit as well as others, we are just waiting in the wings to not embarrass ourselves too much. Trust me. Each one of us have some real dingers.
