2centz, please read the hazmat rules, you'll learn a lot there. You just might need a refresher course on hauling hazmat from your company. Not trying to be mean or anything, but Turtle was right on hauling less then 1001 pounds of hazmat in table 2

I need to ask why you went into the scales if you didn't have placards on in the first place and two do you go into all scales since you don't need to, unless you have a placard on your vehicle. You also don't need to log and you also don't need to follow the 11/14 rule because the only driving...

Well for me I wanted a new van, but have decided to drop a motor into mine, been using between 2 and 3 qts of oil between oil changes and now I have a oil leak that wasn't there before. Just had Dallas freightliner order one and I'll drop the van off in a couple of days. Guess I'll be down this...

Dallas, tx waiting to see doc tomorrow.

You should also remember and always have in the back of your mind that when coming into a work zone 18 wheelers have and will jump out on you even if your in the right driving in the lane that is shutting down. Hell I've seenthem do it when it was 2 miles befor e the lane closure.

Is a B unit a cargo van or are you a sprinter?

Most Landstar loads I've carried over the last 4 years have been over 1k with a brunch in the 2 to 2500k range. Therefore, a 5.5 foot over hang causes a problem with weight distribution when carrying 2 pallets. If you could use the whole cargo aera then there's no problem carrying the weight...

Windsor, I guess you have the ext sprinter, my 05 is 14 ft in the rear with a door height of 69 inches 50 inches between the wheel wells, therefore, losing a foot and not having 5 and a half foot overhang in the rear means I can carry more weight. The above said, I've looked long and hard at...

Why would they order a sleep test, since Congress told the FMCSA in a law that untill there's a rule it's not part of the medical testing. They even told the FMCSA to tell all the doctors this.

Other then ta or Petro at Landstar we get set amount, as for T/A we call and find out what our price for that day is and add either.2.5 or 3 cents to the price we get from calling
