There are drivers at my building who have been driving for a while and still don’t know what that means.

Damn you, first thing I thought when I read the title. Lol

I couldn't do it. Good on you for stepping up.

Man, I'd hate doing this job with hills all over the place. Everywhere I deliver at is flat. The only hills I ever see are some of the bridges that go over the canals. That's one of the small perks of being in Florida I guess.

That thing was rollin

That thing was rollin

Like it was in reverse and a brick on the gas pedal.

 

[badpal]

Hate when that happens.

Happened to me as a rookie. Run, run, go, go. Turned around after a delivery and there is the
600 rolling backwards. Not a steep hill going slow. Wide street, nobody parked at that spot.
Took off on a dead sprint and caught it before it hit something. Just lucky. Valuable lesson I never forgot.

Seriously. Had to have been left in neutral with brake “malfunction”. Obviously the work of someone cutting corners.

 

[old levi's]

That will buff out.

Wouldn't have wanted to make that call; hey boss, I just trashed about 37 vehicles.

Ups says the ebs was malfunctioning. Does any of your ebs not have the light on? Ebs doesn't act as a parking brake. Lame excuse. Emergency brake obviously was on and driver didn't put the pc in park

Had a fellow driver have an Econoline get away from him at a lake home one day. The thing rolled down a bank and was stopped at the last second by a small pine tree. Off the end of the bank the water was like 10 ft. deep. Got a neighbor with a tractor to pull it back up the hill and nobody was the wiser. I still give him a hard time about it to this day. He returns the favor with stories about some of the stupid stuff I got away with.

Farmers with tractors (or rednecks with big pickup trucks) can be your best buddies. What UPS doesn't know doesn't hurt them.
