Don't you mean the nut behind the wheel? We all have a story to tell there.
I once backed a glider trailer through a gateway and caught the drivers door
on the gate post. Then there was the time I backed into the tree stump
adjacent my caravan at the gliding club. Then there was the glider that I
towed into the sign post, another member who towed his into the wind sock
and yet another who towed a club glider into the fuel shed. Yeah, I'd say
the nut behind the wheel is pretty universal.
