I was in Norwich a few weeks ago waiting to get into a tight yard to tip. Artic driver pulls out a trailer from a row and attempts a tight turn to get out but clips the front of the next trailer. He stops, gets out, looks around, re-buckles his straps & drives off. I then drive into (empty) yard & see that he has torn the curtain for about 20 feet down the side of the trailer that he clipped. I’m not that keen to shop a fellow driver but equally did not want to get blame myself so told guy at other end of yard. Not the end of the story - got my pallets off and back onto the ring road where surprise, surprise 1/2 mile away there is matey boy stopped by a traffic island with the trailer on it’s knees and the unit 20 feet in front. 
Wish I had had my camera with me - wonder if anyone else saw this incident. Wonder where he is working now… 
Should of paid the night out money.

Just saying like how did the trailer stay up if he hit 20 foot of it
^^^^ overhang

That would be a unbelievably overhang for anything would love to know what you drive
At 20 feet of damage he would have got wedged before he cleared if he continued with his turn

No mate, don’t work like that. Any driver who doesn’t report his own damage mistakes is a kin douche in my book, unless it’s like minor that no one will notice anyway.
So, I’d dob in for that is what I’m saying.

20 feet overhang. Your worrying about overhangs when someones probably hanging oit your wife/gf whilst your being a hero trucker?
