[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 138073, member: 1957"] Feeder equipment (trailers, tractors, shifters) have huge "blind spots". When the PT'ers run into the building, whether they use the crosswalk or not, they don't know, or care, whether the feeder truckdriver can see them. All they know is they must get inside and clock in. They are, essentially, children and have the insight and foresight of children. I had one child go UNDER my dropframe trailer just behind the dolly. The child then got indignent when I exited my tractor and brought it to his attention that he could have got killed if I hadn't seen him in my mirrors. It must be wonderful to be so smart. I think it's a great idea because, 1) it gives management something to do and 2) it might keep a child from getting killed. [/QUOTE]
