    Think that was that big one. They said fog. I mean when you can't see, why stop or slow down?

    You’re supposed to see stuff in front of you when driving. Isnt the cruise control and radar and collision avoidance systems supposed to take care of that?

    Fng, the latest great adventure part..,.XVII..I?

    Got a call 0800, fifth wheel won’t lock on kingpin.
    i drive 50 miles.
    See where the fifth wheel is locked, sitting beside trailer.
    I grab handle, he says, “I already pulled that, it won’t unlock.”
    I grabbed anyway, handle out, and pulled it hard about 10 times.
    It unlocked.

    Then i walk around looking, cause that’s what i do, and seen where he dropped trailer on frame, only thing they kept from dropping to ground, kingpin hung on frame support, bending it up.

    So him waiting to last minute before hooking up and leaving for 1100 load appointment, means he lost that load.
    Which then means he lost the reload coming back.

    And now you know why I sold all the trucks and I drive the only one left. You can't fix stupid, just kill it.

    Was thinking maybe fog. It was higher when I went through but it might have been lower when that happened
