{"replyTo":"","text":"First month on my own I had to take a turn with the tandems slid all the way back. Swung it wide into the lane on my left and then back. There was a truck on the street that I was turning and I didn’t want him rolling back when he took off at light (he was on an incline) so I swung it a lil tighter. I SHOULD HAVE WAITED. Bad part was I would have cleared if the pin was 2-3 more holes forward. Anyhow called the cops to block the right most lane and so I could back up (5 o clock traffic outside Atlanta ga) and it took 3 cruisers to get me out of that situation because of just how the road was and weather they blocked off both lanes and the street I was turning on to. He let me off the hook because I called, and also if I hadn’t have been paying attention to that trailer on that side it would have brought the whole squares lights down.  Basically no harm no foul but I was extremely lucky. If I was in his shoes I would have thrown the book at me. ","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"I was a farm hand and I switched between trucks pretty frequently. \n\nI had been driving a 13 speed freightliner with double grain trailers and I switched to a longer wheel base 15 speed Peterbilt pulling a 6000 gal sprayer tender trailer.\n\nI took a corner really wide. Wide enough for my second trailer to clear the corner, except I didn't have a second trailer. I had an unbaffled trailer half full of liquid.\n\nLuckily I didn't roll it but the slosh did push me far enough into the far side ditch that we needed a 600 hp quadtrac to pull me out.","replyToPid":0}
