    Makes it quick and easy for Nestle they send the bill for the damage to both company's 1 for actually doing the damage 2. For breaking the rule and being the cause of damage. Send the bill for the damage to both companies. If neither of them want a protracted battle and loss of loads from the plant both will settle Nestle get paid twice damage is fixed seems like a win to me for the cost of a sign and keep them from liability if someone happens to get ran over or crushed between trailers.

    I would grant Nestle's request ... just because they ask so politely.

    Bettin it has something to do w/liability---their yard jockey probably helped someone back in and driver hit something--then sued nestle--or some such BS like that

    1) You are on Nestle's property
    2) The request they are making is not illegal or immoral
    3) In fact, the request could be considered fair and reasonable
    4) They are asking politely

    Crazy conclusion: Do not assist other drivers with maneuvering or backing their truck.

    But don't you know, when a driver sees a sign, his first and immediate reaction is to do the exact opposite. Cases in point:

    o No trucks in left lane signs
    o Any speed limit sign or keep 100 ft separation on weigh in motion scales
    o No parking signs
    o No idling signs
    o Please pull forward after fueling signs
