One of ours who had a bad smash on the A66 yesterday.
WHAT HAPPENED AND WAS HE/SHE ALRITEE ?
SORRY TO SEE THAT HAPPEN
Driver coming opposite way on his side of the road so swerved and off road into a tree… A Michael Johnson (Dumfries) lorry then went into the back of our Manfreight and his lorry was SUPPOSEDLY wrote off as well… Sleepy driver failed to stop and ■■■■■■ off (SCUMBAG) but a witness gave the police enough details for him to be captured further up the road. The guy walked away with cuts and bruises and a bad knee… You wouldnt think someone would walk away from that eh?

This 08 plate Actros replaced one of our XF105s which was written-off after jack-knifing during the bad weather in January.We had only had the Actros for a couple of weeks when this happened on its way back from Wick.Apparently,the Tesco decker it was pulling suffered very little damage.It’s been a bad winter,we’ve had 2 or 3 others damaged as well.No pay rise this year 
Not so Steady Eddie.

it looks more like a squashed line 
dlote2009:
Is this a new safety feature to allow you to check the fifth wheel dog-clip from the comfort of the cab? Not sure how well it’d work with a trailer on though.
…maybe this picture shows the results of that particular test.
