I would have stopped once I lost the center yellow line. probably would have back it up from there and found a place to back into so I could turn around. I've been here before, rule of thumb for me is, if the yellow lines go away. stop and evaluate.
Thank you for your video. You are honest and not afraid of sharing with your mistakes. I respect that and now I know what to do if something like that happens to me.
I had a similar problem with the mudflap. I explained the issue to a road call guy in birmingham and he bent it a certain way so that it doesn’t move as much, its been holding up so far.
No worries being an honest hard working man! Making a difference and a living - getting the job done! Yes, laws and rules are in place for a reason. You have a great safety record, so no worries brother! We are never to old or too experienced to making a mistake every now and again. They should have another warning sign telling you (a truck driver) there is no turning possibility for you after this point. The law can meet you half way, to be fair and reasonable to you and other drivers who make fall into this same situation.
Thank you sir! I do have a clean CSA score and I work hard to keep it like that. As I said in the video, it was partially my fault. Complacency will get you killed out here and I’m just glad it was a minor incident. Stay safe brother.
When is the last time you meet a perfect person? We all make mistakes! but I'm glad you got this resolved. Thanks for sharing your mistakes so that it can help others. Wishing you nothing but the best 🙏
I hope next time if you find yourself in the same situation, that you'll stop, call the county sheriff's and ask them to help you back out. Not detracting from you or berating you. Most sheriffs/cops will look the other way on a citation, if you explain what happened, and ask for help. I've gotten more warnings in my life than tickets, because I don't feed them a line, I just say it how it is. At least the court was lenient with you for your mistake.
Yeah, you are right. I should have done that. When you get caught up in the moment, sometimes your brain has poor judgment. I do try to slow things down so I can think clearly, but in this situation, i clearly made a bad decision with trying to make that turn. Another life lesson learned the hard way.
I sure can. I’ll make a video next time I pull a load where I need permits. Pretty much want to follow your permit instructions and an atlas comes into play huge with oversize loads
Hey buddy, I’m planning on joining p n s In September after I get my cdl! Do you mind contacting me so we can share some info? Could really use some advice, plz and thanks

Good rule to have. I will definitely keep that in mind for next time.

@@delgadotrucking Yeah, we all make dumb mistakes. We either learn from them, and get better, or repeat them and make life harder for ourselves.
Glad everything worked out. Did you have to get a lawyer for court?
I did, but he ended up not showing up so I had to handle it myself. Crazy right? Lol
Gotta bend the hanger down
I’ve tried that
@@delgadotrucking lol not with your hand brother! 🤣🤣 I had to pull mines back into place then stand my fat ass on it a lil bit a lil bounce
I hope you see this. Can you teach us how you follow a permited oversized or over weight losd
I sure can. I’ll make a video next time I pull a load where I need permits. Pretty much want to follow your permit instructions and an atlas comes into play huge with oversize loads

Did you use a lawyer
