I bet you wanted to be a tanker driver, thinking it was an easy life eh? Fantastic wages clean job where the load tipped itself ( fantastic is gravity) to load all you did was stick the pipe in the man hole in the top, easy life!!!!
Bit different to- day though, all H/S, all bottom loaded on API valves,, better designed tankers what’s not to like, most of, if not all fuel distribution has gone “out of house” so wages are down a bit but still a bloody good job.

But cant say, dont want to influence any results! yer kno’ derrrrrh diddy derrh! & a whistle!
Mandata says
You could be correct about brake failure particularly on the tanker owing to liquid surges, then old tankers didn’t have baffles in them
You not frightened, you trying to get the sympathy, not working ha ha
