Several years ago, there was a bad accident with a chipper that came off the pintle hook of the truck that was pulling it. The chipper kept on going, and took out the driver's side of a mini-van, killing the driver and one of his sons. Heads rolled over that wreck.

And there, in the right lane, was one of those signage trailers, that had become disconnected from the Hiway truck that was towing it, and laying in the right lane, in the rain, unlighted! WOW!! I had to change my drawers when i got stopped on the next pull-off! I don't know how those pintle hooks are supposed to lock, as i have never used them.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
