j_martell Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 These pictures were sent to me about a year ago by fellow BMT'er Macknutt. This truck pulled into his place of work to deliverbut he was at the wrong place, so he decided to flip around and head out. Looks like he miscalculated and decided to take theconcrete blocks with him. I'll give him credit for dragging three of em that far. Did some custom damage to the suspension also.He had to be towed out of there after this. Definitely a Super Trucker!Its fine....drive on.....thats why theres two axles, right? lol Quote Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....

Popular Post vision386 Posted November 23, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 23, 2014 I had to laugh,earlier today I was parked next to a Werner truck a new Pete 3 something or other? brand new tractor,BUT there was not one thing on the truck that wasn't bent, broken.or missing! the kicker is,the truck said the drivers name on the side,and he was Werners "driver of the year"!.................................Mark 3 Quote Mack Truck literate.

theakerstwo Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 This driver was getting on the big road too fast and hit the concret.It took the roof off with engine as well.The driver that runs in front of me came along just as fire trucks got there and he says the driver was still in his seat and holding the steering wheel like nothen had happened.Unhurt but shocked that he had lost control.

PeterMack Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 This was picture was sent to me yesterday. It is from a cold storage warehouse not to far from me that a couple friendshaul out of. The driver here cut the corner a little too short and ripped the whole suspension out from under this trailer.Just to the right of the picture are metal posts/fence that are in place to stop trucks from going into a retention pond,and hitting the gate. The posts/fence worked today, he's not in the pond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FMCSA does not provide rating info to the public but they have 17989 tractors which, according to my calculusitrations, means that 1 in 10 trucks in there fleet has been involved in a DOT reportable crash in the past 2 years. That might actually translate into a not too bad rating. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vision386 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I suppose given the amount of rolling stock Swift owns,that's prolly not a bad FMCSA score,but I bet the Safety director there is a 24/7 365 job!...................................Mark 1 Quote Mack Truck literate.
