    This 30 minute break isn't so bad.

    I would like to see OOIDA make more of a PR push and as individuals we could start doing simple things like starting Facebook groups that humanize drivers. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Thinking about Cargo Van.. Q's

    I get the idea of being addicted to driving for a living and made the mistake of working in a cubicle thinking it would be so great sleeping in my own bed. Any of the larger carriers will typically have fleet owners looking for drivers but they may not always be hiring, especially if it is...

    This 30 minute break isn't so bad.

    This was the result of distracted or fatigued driving earlier today. The driver of the SUV blew through a light crossed both lanes of traffic and hit a stopped TT from my company head on. As an industry we will do nothing to make sure it gets attention. If the roles were reversed the FMCSA...

    The rates for my segment were looking really solid until the 4th and then it was like someone flipped a switch. The only loads paying $2/mile were going to horrible places for us like Laredo or Salt Lake City. I finally found a good one going to the middle of nowhere in MT which can be decent...

    I mean a partial load for a TT might pay $.50/mile or it could be $2+/mile. The only way to tell usually is to call and see what they are looking for in terms of service. That Bradford load requires a team and has an 07:00 appointment for Friday so they are getting short on time which could mean...

    There is one from Laredo up to Bradford, ON that they tried to ship as a partial on a TT which the rates can be hit or miss for a ST. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    This 30 minute break isn't so bad.

    Being that there are a few threads on this topic already I didn't want to start a new one. This section here stands out because they are claiming having a waiver to not follow the rules to stop fatigue is the same or BETTER than following their rules. "In the FMCSA’s statement, the agency...
