I always set all the break buttons on the dash everytime I got out of the truck.Seen too many run aways..

I'm always paranoid about making sure I set the brakes. There are at least a few times every day that I climb back into my tractor to make sure they are set.

i too have climbed back into the truck to re-check my brakes. funny how sometimes we do something over and over again, and we CAN forget at times.

and i'll just bet that driver nearly had a heart-attack, as he ran after the truck, and, knowing all the paperwork involved if the rig crashed into those other vehicles.

I check often as possible just like to make sure they are set but you know how it is any given day it could happen to any one of us. Brain farts happen all the time. Just glad to see nobody got hurt.
