What I've been told by safety in the past,was, since I owned the truck,when i stop my truck, its concidered a safe haven,which is far from the truth. The carrier your leased to has to give you the written note that your not responsible for the truck when stopped after 15 mins.If your driving for...

In a nut shell,truck drivers don't like to sit.Expedite is a hurry up and waite form of trucking.If your in a busy time, you'll make the kind of money you were told about,and won't be sitting much,but if its slow,the white line fever will have you job hunting

To be relieved from duty,you must have a note or card from the company saying that you are not responsible for the load or equipment after you have gone off duty for more than 15 mins.Ive tried to get this from FDCC over the years,and have never been able to aquire one.Unless you have a note or...

I know most of you drive vans and box trucks,and the use of the equipment when off duty,your going to have to log. It is a little different for us tractor trailer drivers,if we drop our trailers and cover the door signs,as we cant haul any freight now,we can be classified as a POV,but I'm...
