No, before anyone asks…..I didn’t do this :D

 

What happens when you don’t fully engage the pin in the coupler on a 48 foot refrigerated trailer with about 40K lbs of freight in it and try to drive away???

Crane and wrecker are en route to sling it back up and hook it to a road tractor. Trailer is ruined, besides the landing gear being ripped off, the sides and floor are buckled.

 

I know someone who will be looking for a new job today…..

That happened out on the street a couple of months back. Luckily he just pulled out from a light so speed must have been low. I quess the pin/lock failed. Hey swing that trailer by my place. I'll store it with stuff inside.
