Once while driving a tractor trailer, when returning to the yard with a 48' flatbed, a car followed me in and the driver stated I left the scene of an accident. The driver was making threats and it started to get ugly. I told the driver to get lost so to speak, and recollecting where this accident could have happened, it dawns on me that this jerk was too close to the trailer at an intersection that had a little incline to it. I rolled back slightly when starting off and he was saying I hit him. He should not have been so close, you can't feel something like this in the cab of the truck. Whether I did or not, I drove away because I had no idea anything had happened. In another incident, an elderly man had tried to turn at an intersection, as I was making the turn and the truss trailer's angle iron suspended from chain hooked onto the car. I kept going until I felt something like a brake hanging up, looked back and saw that while shifting a couple of gears, I had dragged this car into a curb, totaling it, twisting the car and popping all the side windows. I had no idea until well after the fact. Should have done 6 months should I ? I don't think so. People are idiots all the time, can't fix stupid.
