[QUOTE="TG43, post: 2363560, member: 49675"] Unfortunately, I have experience with this, lol. A couple months ago I came up to a stop...my load was a :censored:-show like usual and I had to go to the back digging (following orion). I hear a man yelling something like "there's a car! watch out! watch out!". I tried to get to the front and honk my horn, but didn't make it fast enough. She (his wife, elderly lady) hit the left front of my PC with right rear of her vehicle. Her husband tried to alert her my PC was there. She had no problem admitting she never looked in her mirrors and was a little embarassed, she said she was thinking about her older sister in the hospital. I was blocking probably 2-3 ft. of their driveway. She backed out from the garage from the lane I wasn't blocking at all and backed into me, lol. I was trained to park with the "path of least resistance". I had never heard to block all or none of a driveway. I tried to claim the surface/lawn was uneven and felt it was safer getting out on level pavement. They decided it was avoidable of course. I was supposed to get a day suspension but grieved it and got it reduced to a warning letter. I'm still kinda pis.sed that I did exactly what I was told and got in trouble. Definitely learned a little about the company, lol. [/QUOTE]
