Professional Peer Review
As professionals, it is often necessary to subject ourselves to peer review, or the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field, in order to help foster objectivity.

Peterbilt & dump trailer rollover question
The following question is the result of a rollover accident involving a Peterbilt work truck pulling a 37’ frameless aluminum dump trailer. The trailer overturned. The truck did not. The undisputed impact between the two was sustained to the tractor fenders, an air bag, shock absorber, 5th wheel head and air ride level valve & link. The truck owner claims that damage was sustained to the right fuel tank. The tank damage is over 6 feet forward of the king pin location. The owner provided no credible information as to how this damage was sustained from this loss. The owner said something must have fallen out of the trailer or it could have occurred during the recovery. It appears to this adjuster, that the tank has been cleaned and polished many times since the damage was incurred, and that the damage, at the time sustained, would certainly have broken the fuel tank cap, which is not broken.
