Yea, I'm back behind the wheel. I still have numbness in my lower left leg where I was burned by something, and every once in a while I get an excruciating pain under the skin where its numb.
Doc says I have nerve damage from the burn,and the feeling may come back in 2 yrs, or it may never come back, so he can't give me a definate answer on it.
But other than that everything is going OK, other than having anxiety attacks when traffic gets heavy or stops on the interstate.

The only issue with that paragraph, Schneider's truck is the only one that burned completely to the ground. Half of my trailer was burned and melted, but my truck didn't burn, and the third truck didn't burn at all. Just damage on the back of trailer.

My company paid the shipper for it, but Schneider will have to pay the company back for the lumber, the trailer and the truck.

Yes the photos show your truck as most definitely proof that the text of the article needed a better editor based on the photos.
About 36 hrs after the crash. I lost my phone in the truck in the wreck, and I told the cop that someone needed to call my company since I lost my phone. He said he'd take care of it.
My company knew nothing of wreck until 24 hrs later. They realized something was wrong when the reciever called asking where their load was. My company called my phone, sent messages to my truck computer and I didn't answer.
They then called my brother asking if I quit and abandoned the truck. He said I never told him that or called him. Then everyone went into panic mode. My boss backtracked to my last known location, which was Mobile Alabama. He turned on the onboard camera and watch/fast forwarded until he seen what happened. He made phone calls to Alabama state police, who got him to that cop, then that's when the bullshit started flying.
Now let me rephrase what I said in last post...
One person told my boss I was badly burned and needed to be identified, because I was put under and was out, and could not tell them who I was.
Someone else told him I was dead and needed to be identified.
Someone else told him I could not be located at the scene of the crash and no one knew where I was.
My brother was freaking out...... But I can't even put into words what my mom was going through...
