Deliver to a lot of small shops in Cornwall.One of the shops i deliver to owns the bungalow next door and we reverse into bungalows drive and deliver to w/house at back of shop. Got to store one day and was on auto pilot,reversed in, put the handbrake on, got paperwork ready,was just ready to jump out and thought “this doesn’t look right”
I was in next doors driveway, with old biddy peering out the window. 
Wheel Nut:
Someone mentioned reversing into their truck.I reversed over my own car in a dimly lit yard one night. There wasn’t much room and I backed in alongside the hedge, taking a huge gouge out of the side of my new Orion
Interesting one. I presume you claimed off yourself?

Dropped at Tesco Didcot a few weeks back. Walked out the drivers rest room with keys in pocket, clipboard and iPad in one hand and a brew in the other.Put the clipboard and iPad in the wheel to get keys out of my pocket. Opened door, climbed up with my brew and started engine. Moved off, heard a thud so slammed on. No idea what it was so jumped out to have a look.
Clipboard was smashed under the tyre but the iPad was only just wedged. Still works and escaped with only a tiny dent… Winner!
A very good mate of mine went into work on the monday morning. Unloading his kit/shopping from his car and rested his Fender guitar against the truck fuel tank whilst putting the other stuff into his cab. Yep! Forgot about the Fender and drove over it as he set off!!! 
I ran over my tool box once, it was one of those flip out cantilever ones and it was crushed flat, all the stuff I needed to open it was stuck inside it 
I also ran over the rope that was holding the side of a tilt up while being unloaded and shunting around a yard, the rope pulled the tilt until the breaking point…then it broke 
and ripped a 30’ strip containing all the eyelets off, the bloke that came out to repair it said he’d never seen such a big tear in a tilt and he’d been repairing them for donkey’s years
Put 300 litres of red in the truck at Portsmouth truckstop many years ago Never told anybody that till this day!
I once left my clipboard and notes on the top of a cage and forgot about it. Got to the next drop and couldn’t find it anywhere. Assumed I had left it at the previous drop started unloading and found it on a recycling cage right at the front of the truck in the freezer.
Last monday, I managed to drive to the first drop, where I put the box (we use swap bodys) on bay 8.
Pull the trailer out, and go around the yard, to let people get passed me.
So, I get the trailer under the box I am taking back, fold in the legs, and go back home to our yard.
Drop the trailer where I usually do, and go home.
After 20 minutes, they called, and wanted to know why I had not delivered the box.
So, that was 2.5 hours driving to move the box one bay to the left… 
coming back to England from Inverness 1979
Driving over things has reminded of the time I had partaken of a can of Special Brew (never drink the stuff so was surprised by its strength), went to move the car on the drive to let someone out after putting a saucepan lid down behind it then promptly forgetting about it. It looked like part of a Dali painting afterwards.

Lucky for us, some of dumb things we do (like bigvern’s post) can be deleted…
Bigvern, one down, you have about 3700 to go!
On my way to do a trailer swap mid shift at our yard I had a call from the office informing me that the time of my tip was an hour earlier than I was told, when I got to the yard my trailer was behind two others 
I moved the first no problems but was watching the time constantly, when I moved the second I was more concerned with the time ( lesson learnt there ) well, I pulled the pin whilst still on shunt, the trailer started to roll back, luckily I had only lifted the legs a little to move it, and as soon as the trailer was off the 5th wheel the legs touched the floor and stopped it rolling away
That was the dumb moment now for the dumber moment and the really embarrassing part, as soon as the trailer started to move I dug my heals in and grabbed hold of the straps and tried to stop it it was empty so it could have worked
triple-tango:
I went to give blood yesterday, but forgot my glasses. So I bluffed through the form just ticking “no” to all the questions about ill health, foriegn travel etc. The guy who took my blood sample asked why I had ticked all the boxes relating to females & pregnancy.
When’s the baby?
Not one of mine as you can probably guess…
Car driver is a ■■■■■■ jerk , spends more time aiming his camera than concentrating on his driving & makes no effort to tell the trucker of the problem.
A few years ago, my Bedford blew a water pipe near Taunton on the M5 J28. Rang up rescue peoples and told them M4 J28. I don’t know why, but it took them three hours to find me…
