For the second time in less than two weeks someone hit my truck while parked at a truck stop. I was inside eating breakfast this morning, and when I walked back out I saw the damage long before I reached the truck.
The passenger side of my front bumper was pulled out a good two feet. Whoever did it took off, essentially committing a hit and run, which is a felony in a commercial vehicle.
So, before I could go pick up my load I had to deal with taking pictures, making calls, and all of the other garbage that goes along with such an incident. That put me over an hour behind schedule right off the bat.
Once I picked up my load over in Chippewa Falls, WI I headed towards Milwaukee where the load delivers tomorrow morning. I ran into snow before I got to Madison. Between Madison and Milwaukee several dozen vehicles had spun out and gone into the ditches despite the fact that the road didn't seem all that slick to me.
The cops were extremely busy dealing with all of the fender benders.
By the time I got here, just south of Milwaukee, it was rain, lightening, and thunder. Crazy weather. I am now in a nice warm motel room for the night and am only about five minutes from where I deliver.
