You would be surprised. I broke an Abloy lock and a dolly handle lol
Our pigtails were changed in the newer trucks and some people strapped them so high that 90 degrees split the electrical connection box in half. Our trucks were recalled after that
I have a big problem with this . Three sets of air lines and two glads hands. I now have three springs on the harness . Ra said how does this keep happening ? I said I don’t know if I did It won’t be happening !

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.

I was in a tight yard and sort of Jack knifed while backing. So after I get done I see the glad hand and the glad hand on the trailer is sheared off. Literally if you take a glad hand and cut it in half. Do you guys know what caused this? Is my fifth wheel to far back? Did I jackknife to hard? What is going on the hose is intact so how could the force shear a steel glad hand?
