What if it Snows?

Its a wee chilly this morning...

 

Brand spankin' new Landstar trailer next to me. The corporate boys must be playing favorites...

 

It's pretty dang cold here too It's like 28, but the wind is like an ice pick.

Blackie has some sort of slow drip coolant leak that is dripping out of the APU housing.
And air leak.

The cold probably tweaked a couple of high quality fittings someplace.

The OM is almost in Nirvana to be back on the truck lol.

Going try and get her home before dealing with bs.

 

You must be near one of the agents that fronts for the cartels.

 

Fast forward to 1:30, friends father-in-law had a bad weekend.

 

Obviously he didn't know the gun was loaded.

There are several positives here though.

1) The CRST driver is probably fully vaccinated.

2) CRST is wearing his safety vest.

3) Appears no one was injured.

4) More evidence that driverless trucks are dangerous.

5) The damage is pretty minor to all three trucks. Maybe $50K in actual damage. But Lord knows what the bill will be for towing and down time since there's no parts.

 

Ouch!!!

 

I know it’s not right but I may have chuckled a little. Sorry.

 

(5) Is the biggest issue. CRST is having to pay for the use of substitute equipment until the truck is repaired, flight to substitute equipment, repairs to equipment, and his days of downtime. The trainer was away from the truck, and trainee forgot to set brakes after pulling up to the ready line

 

A lot of people, unknown what percentage, have forgotten to set there brakes once.

I did it myself once. But felt the truck start moving and got lucky I got them set after moving maybe 20 feet.

I've personally known two other drivers, one that can drive circles around me, that have done this, with similar results to your video.

Rolled across the lot and wasted someone's truck and their own. Both of them at receivers.
