If every single driver on the road today reported every contact this system would be so overloaded as to paralyze it. You can (correctly) go on and on about this but that is the one simple fact those of us that live in realville live with. 90% of this damage is done by yard dog's. Simple facts, sorry if that don't fit inside your morality.

Not counting reefers what do you think is the most kinds of damage to a trailer? bad and/or flat tires is one. The other that always used to piss me off was tandems out of line. Sometimes this was so bad the tandem locking pins did not line up. Bent king pins. Followed by actual holes in the sides made by fork lifts. NONE of this is going to get fixed because someone turns a scratch in. Most of the megas have their trailers on a service schedule and if a serious problem sent to a trailer shop. Like I have tried to say now several times. I am more concerned that this kind of stuff be prevented. However it is a fact that general abuse during their life does a heck of a lot more damage to a trailer then a simple scratch. Castrating a driver will not stop this.
tinytim Thanks this.
