As far as I’m concerned, the last 3 guys to pull this should be kicking stones. I know if I was the safety guy, they’d be gone. Pure incompetence.
Pretrip your trailer!!

Another guy is like “holy cow those are the brakes? I’ve been told they were back there but I never get around to walking that far away from the house to look for myself.” Lol.BigDog Trucker Thanks this. -
I see the humor in all your posts.....funny for sure. But seriously this pisses me off to no end. Guys just don’t care anymore. And the company I run my truck at just had a wheel off incident a month ago. A steer tire at that!! Hub was completely dry, they checked the other side, it wasn’t far behind!!

I'd venture to guess that if safety actually did their job.
95% of truckers would be fired for not doing theirs.
Drivers that actually look and adjust is a very rare breed.D.Tibbitt, BigDog Trucker, magoo68 and 6 others Thank this. -

Good to actually see inside and the issue. Lots of newbies would have no clue. More training on pre-trip with both good and bad rquipment is needed. Especially for those who've never done any 4 wheeler maintanence either.
BigDog Trucker, alds and Kyle G. Thank this. -
Picked up a trailer(tanker) pretriped it and found a brake shoe hanging out of the drum.
