This is for everyone, if you take the break to early then you would have to take it a second time. Therefore, break needs to be taken at the 5.5 hour or later. This is because the rule is written in a way that says from when you come on duty. not from the time you start driving. Please read...

No they call the BCO and ask if the'll talk to the people and give them info. I've done it a couple of times and I tell them the good the bad and the ugly of LEAM.

Just remember to start the break anytime from the 5.5 hour start of the day or you'll have to do another one before your 14 is up.

For some out there being overweight in a cargo van is different then being in a commerical vehicle.

And if you made cargo vans scale and log, the first thing they would do is just buy a bigger truck and enter the straight truck freight market. That's what I would do since there would not be an advantage to driving a van anymore for anyone.

I'm so glade that I'm just a couple of years away from getting out of this industry, maybe sooner.

The part of a driver representing a loss would fall on the person doing orientation and after that the trainer.

We drive truck.

What I think is so funny comes from the fact that some people don't even need a trial to find people guilty when they only her one side of a story. Plus the fact that as a O/O or leased driver none of what's going on affects us and our fuel discounts.

I said it wrong but here you go for my link Land Line Magazine: The Business Magazine for Professional Truckers Judge denies motion in Pilot Flying J lawsuit By Jami Jones, Land Line managing editor A motion to prevent Pilot Flying J employees from contacting customers who may have not...

Let's see we have a criminal complaint by the feds, that's one thing that could be a problem for Pilot. Shorting of rebates to companies can be handled like Pilot is doing now and going to the customers, which a judge in Tn says is a good thing when he threw out the lawyers claims today and...

Do you want to be the one that tests that theory about CARB not giving out tickets for older engines, I wouldn't because I don't like giving my hard earned money to the government for being hard headed. I should also add (I think I right about this) that companies can be fined if they load a...

Hate to say this but it's none of our business what discount the company gets from any fuel retailer since the agreement is between the trucking company and the fuel retailers. We as owners of our vehicles don't have to buy from any of the large truck stops we can go to the mom and pop truck...

FSC is what the shipper pays Fuel rebate is what TA/Petro or Pilot/Flying J pays trucking companies for the amount of fuel trucking companies buy from them. Fuel discounts are what truck drivers get from the company to buy fuel at certain truck stop chains and some companies give their...

There is a difference between FSC and a fuel rebate, FSC at LS goes to me at 100% and fuel rebates are a bonus a carrier gives you and they don't have to give you one red cent of this money because it's a deal they work out with the truck stops. I could care less if the carrier got his...

Do you have proof, oh wait now you believe the government.

I sometimes find out buying my fuel at grocery store fuel islands saves me 15 to 20 cents, but before I look for them I check cost plus prices for TA/ Petro. The only thing is no showers when I don't fuel at the truck stops and paying upwards of 13 dollars for a shower is highway robbery.
