Chris, good to hear it is a “relatively easy” fix. Curious why after removing air pressure, the brakes didn’t set on that trailer? Are they defective? Maintenance not done?

Morning Larry!

Nothing stifles competition like a 5-run rule.

Morning Larry!
I asked because that was my first thought. The trailer with air can move, without it cannot. So the story I got from my mom after she calmed down, was that he did not turn off the air when he disconnected the air hose. Apparently, it wasn't the trailer that got him as I was first told, it was the air hose that whipped out and hit him. The block on the end of the hose broke the femur when it hit him.

He was pissed off, in the yard alone, everyone had left. He didn't turn off the air, disconnected the line and it hit him. He couldn't stand so had to crawl to get to his phone to call for help.
