Thursday March 4, 2016


Pickup a Blue Buffalo load in Joplin, Mo. Heading north on us249. Looking in my passenger mirror. Notice there was white smoke coming from the tires. 
Then I realize, that my trailers brakes got locked.

Called the road breakdown. I was told to drive back to Joplin, Missouri. 
I just let the tires cool off, before I drove back to Joplin, Missouri. 
Sat at the Petro parking lot for 3 hours, before the Petro Truck Shop called me in for repairs.

The mechanic told me. It was good thing I drove back. One of the brakes was pretty much toasted. I'm very glad nothing terrible bad happened.
Had seen tires catch on fire before. 
I was just, about to call 911. 

That was my excitement for the day..
