I had a Kraft Yard Jockey near KC dropped my "Load" right inside a wall, up against it and inserted it neatly out of pure spite into a row of trailers where 3 inches was in front and a foot in the back. Gave me a middle and laughed out of there. The glad hands was the worst on purpose... Bent one to fit.
After I finished the slow burn I thought about it. If little donkey can do it, I can play fetch too with that big doggie that FLD 120.
Dropped the bags, got under it using the frame angles, flapped it onto the 5th wheel using the brick wall as a snuggie to hold that trailer from tipping. Im sure that Ronnie Dowdy would have a fit if he saw that... but no damage no harm, just a loud solid BOOM CLANK! Up went the gear and slid that thing out of there.
To this day Im still burning. It's ridiculous. trying to lock me out like that.
What can you do after a jackknife?

No. doubt about it I would have told that yard guy to get my trailer and not moving till he does.Bean Jr., BUMBACLADWAR and x1Heavy Thank this.

Crst probably won't even fire him for that. As little as he's making driving he could wreck 2 trucks and they'd still be in the black

Mine went home laughing. Literally jumped into his personal car and out the gate. I checked the yard goat and found the key had went with him.
It started when I dumped trailer in a open spot in a far corner and we crossed swords and had words. It went downhill from there.BUMBACLADWAR Thanks this. -
Some ppl are just ########.

If you actually have good insurance claiming an injury on the scene could be the difference between the accident being a DOT recordable or a minor incident.
Something to consider, every situation is different. Of course if you're actually hurt you're gonna want to seek medical attention but if it's something stupid like a broken finger I'd keep my trap shut. -
It's MUCH MUCH worse than that. The guy in the car that posted the video stated he only started taking the video after recognizing the trucker's predicament, getting out and walking up to him to tell him he would help guide him in a straight back (notice how nicely far back the car was parked?), and the trucker refused any help.Bean Jr., Rusty Trawler, x1Heavy and 1 other person Thank this.

That's somebody that shouldn't be allowed a permit for a moped. I mean that's some full psychotic break or something.Diggler, Bean Jr., x1Heavy and 1 other person Thank this.

Yeah,I used to purchase at Proctor &Gamble in KCK.Shuttle run..drop an empty,put loaded one.We were supposed to have 3 dedicated doors.Well the yard jockeys hated us..because we used our assigned doors? They would yank our empties out and bury them behind trailers.So,you you show up (no spot for your empty? They've put some other trailer in your empty door! So,you had to drop in the parking lot quickly,yank the loaded one out,drop it,put your empty in,hook back to loaded one and leave.They would holler"Take the Whole ####### dock.Holler for being in their way dropping (because they stole your door)! One got fired for defecating in one of our empties in the dock! Bunch of A holes.Loaders weren't much better.We said to turn minimum of 6 shuttles,back to North Kansas City a day.
