[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 198687, member: 9859"] This is tragic,one more example of safety first. I find issues with this article(if it's accurate) A)Don,t break routine,palm pilot distractions take away the senseability of whats happening around vehicle when temporarily parked. B)You find the bays full,at that point you turn the tractor OFF!(Excessive idiling is recorded on computer).In order to put it in gear you must then re-start tractor and proceed with caution.Also,many hubs require drivers to hand the keys over to security before they cut the seals on trailers. C)Around blind corners,proceed slowly with utmost caution,tap horn,scan entire area for obstacles and pedestrians and of course follow up on your mirrors until turn is complete. Doesn't look good for the driver"according to the article". I bet he feels terrible.It's very sad.Especially for the victoms family. [/QUOTE]
