You can't count on a green light with prepass . On a recent trip through TN my prepass didn't come on at one scale , was redlighted t the next , then got the green light at the third . This regularly happens in TN . You all need to be aware that warnings will also get points against you with...

And how many Supertruckers or SUV's went flying past you when you were driving at a snail's pace ? When you drive during inclement weather your safety depends on the abilities and judgment of every driver on the road .

I was surprised KY roads were in such good shape . I came across the WK Parkway and North on I-65 . They must have just gotten snow and no ice . They got about 6" of snow or more .

B-6. How would "waiting time" at a terminal, plant, or port be logged? "Waiting time" at a terminal, plant, or port may be recorded as off-duty, sleeper berth, or on duty/not driving, depending on specific circumstances. For "waiting time" to be off-duty, the following off-duty conditions...

They will reopen all of them Virginia highway rest areas to re-open - NBC12 News, Weather Sports, Traffic, and Programming Guide for Richmond, VA |

What holes ? There is a huge surplus of drivers . Over 100,000 jobs were lost in the industry last year and CDL mills are doing a booming business . I saw something interesting though . Members on another forum were trying to warn wannabes how bottom feeder carriers chew newbies up and spit...

The only possible advantage I could think of a Hino having over the FL would be the warranty . They are good vocational truck for around town . They aren't well suited for long hauling .

Do they have enhanced fishing licenses for boaters from border states ?

I know NY and WA also have them . I don't believe enhanced licenses are given to all drivers but are available for a higher fee

No there wasn't . Some states had classified licenses . Some were A, B, C , some were 1 , 2, 3 . . A MA Class 1 was a semi license . I had an AR chauffeur's license in 1978 and moved to MA . They wouldn't give me a Class 1 because I didn't have a classified license . I got a RI address and they...

Thanks Nightcreacher . That sure clarifies things . The loads were from flu . I assume Global would get priority for these loads over a FECC E unit .

I know . He also says FECC had no lease trailers until this flu thing started . I just hate seeing people running expediters down with a bunch of false info . There are plenty of legitimate gripes to post . I'd like to know some facts behind his story though .

I have to bring attention to this . A member on another forum claiming to be teaming on an E unit wrote a long rant saying he sat in CA for days while FedEx Ground units with leased reefers came in and hauled freight for $1.35 a mile that should have gone to him for $2.75 a mile . He says FECC...

By the end of October over 91,000 jobs have been lost in the trucking industry . 7,500 trucking jobs lost in October - eTrucker . Not only are these people looking for work but CDL schools are doing a booming business . People losing jobs in other industries think there will always be trucking...

I have to agree with you on Dodge parts and service . I've owned a few Dodges and would never buy another . As far as diesels go Ford has been a loser since the 7.3 was replaced . But I would buy General Motors products . How do you expect them to repay the loans if everyone boycotts them ? GM...

Regarding the bus station ....Greyhound is packed for the holidays . A member on another forum waited over an hour in line to get a bus ticket only to be told there may not be room for them on the bus when it got there .
