Your taking the curb thing way too serious....... I hit maybe 4, 1 of these curbs twice LOL. I drove it maybe 100 yards up the road.

I made 2 full turns to get there!!!!!

I implore you, no lives were in danger on this " outlaw trucking run " LOL

It was just a funny little story I thought you cats would enjoy.


I just hope my dastardly deed doesn't end up on CNN.

Thanks for your concern fader.

I find your OTR trucking adventure funny as hell! lol

This OTR and regional truck driver culture thing is very entertaining. The unthinkable has it's own excuse for being done. It's illegal and wrong but someone can explain why they did it anyway.
This is not an attack in anyway, please.
I am entertained by it all and have been in compromising situations many times where I have had to bend the rules.
The rules are usually written by people who have no clue, as in have no cdl-a and have never driven in this case, anyway.

I agree you prolly shouldn't have done that but oh well!! Everything turned out allright. with the courts today one small thing could've followed you for life. Ok lecture over, back when I 1st started driveing (1976) I washed and fueled trucks and sometimes ran from one shop to the other. Well I dropped a driveshaft and took out 2 cars with the debri ops: . It ended up ok but I did half to get my class 1 after that

This whole thing is hilarious! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Kebo, how do you make 2 turns and hit 4 curbs, 1 of them twice? :lol: :lol:

I'm picking on ya a little but its all in fun. You wanted us to be entertained and I am! LMAO. :lol:

Dang, now I got that song "Give me 40 acres to turn this thing around" stuck in my head......picturing this fella going to pick up the flatbed and bring it back after the 'festivities' over there.......

I'm sure that lil 'venture' will teach ya the hard way on turning corners pulling that trailer around.......guess I can't complain too much on having someone sitting in the jump seat when I was learning all the fun stuff critiquing every move.......

And now you'll have to start all over getting used to shifting with a trailer in tow. A whole MONTH of driving a bobtail is a waste of time! You don't make money pulling WIND behind ya!

There were other employees there at work they could have asked anyone, but I had the training.

That's debatable.

Apparently, NONE successfully! :lol:

Really?? Have you been trained in the proper procedure to hook a trailer? Know how to check to see that the jaws are locked? Platform seated properly on 5th wheel? One mistake, and the trailer could have LEFT you on one of those turns and ended up in someone's living room where their child was watching T.V.

And even IF no "lives" were in danger..... your career certainly would have been over if you had an accident while driving a CMV without a CDL!


It was just a funny little story I thought you cats would enjoy.

And I did! And I don't mean to bust your bells..... but why didn't you AT LEAST take a few turns around your LOT, and practice backing the trailer up to a spot, BEFORE you ventured out on your task, ill-prepared, illegal, and "hoping for the best?"


I just hope my dastardly deed doesn't end up on CNN.

You'll be in WORSE shape, if it ends up on YOUTUBE! :wink:

Thanks for your concern fader.
