I was hooking up the trailer

This happened to me this winter. The crank handle probably ended up in this position while they were loading the trailer. I didn't look and just backed straight into it. I didn't even know it was possible.

Hey step-trailer
John9250@reddit
I laughed entirely too hard at this

This is why we walk around our trailers before backing. So this call doesn’t have to get made to Dispatch.

I do trailer swaps every day. I used to take my time, but after a while you just start skipping steps

This didn't "happened" to you. YOU "happened" this to yourself! xD

I just checked mine, it won’t happen with mines.
Looks like your 5th wheel is slid all the way back… like a Cadillac seat

DepecheRumors@reddit
Is your fifth wheel all the way to the front or is it single axle?
DanEpiCa@reddit
EU truck and trailer, so single axle tractor and trailer kingpin quite a bit further back than US trailers.
TomasTheKotva@reddit
in EU its mostly single axle semi trucks
