It's strange to note that while many of us do the walk around with the infra-red gun and others are using sensitive body parts to check for heat related issues with the wheels of our rigs, I have yet to witness a "professional trucker" do anything other than check his load straps if hauling a flat bed or tarped load. I have yet to see a trucker do the formal "Circle-check" procedure mandated at every "start-of-day" cycle inspection on their equipment. When overnighting in truck stops, I very often see them wake up, hit the bathrooms, and roll on out of there with no idea if their trailer is still hooked to the truck or if all wheels are still on the thing.
