[QUOTE="ManInBrown, post: 4110816, member: 46614"] Terrible advice. Are you recording the phone call as youre telling them youre not responsible? You think if something happens theyll say oh yeah we’re on the hook for this ticket. I told the driver it was OK? I would never do either. Trailers dont get pulled with issues to just to help them when its convenient. Thats not the way this works. Weve had guys walked off for bringing trailers on property with an expired FED. I once had a dispatcher come outside and ask me to pull a load with an expired FED 30 minutes up the road to a building that had a mechanic and trailer guy who could renew it. Looked right at him and said dont ever ask me to do something like that ever again. His reply was, “oh youre right. My bad” Its their equipment. From the time they tell the shifter to put it on the door, to the time its ready to go, its their responsibility to make sure that trailer is road worthy. And if it isn't, it should have never been used in the first place. Thats on them. Not my problem. [/QUOTE]
