"Aggressive"!!... Now, that right there is some funny stuff. Rather poor attempt at putting lipstick on the pig. Getting ready to leave the Fargo Petro, on my way to Bellingham, Wa.

OMG!!... The Fed must have some kind of rule about that!!:)

You could have fought that and won, as you would have been violating no rule, it would have just screwed up your 10. If you look through section 395, there's no wording at all that limits bottom line time, just driving. Not that I could find...

You can be on the bottom line as long as you want, you just have to take 10 before you drive again. This is something that may be changed in the next HOS revision.

They dispatch at 47mph. Does that mean a driver can only log an average of 47? Gotta consider taking breaks, stopping for fuel, ect....

The Fartdroid app. An invaluable tool when you need "that noise" at the right moment.

That's not reasonable at all. 160k isn't very many miles. I've put one injector in my 7.3 in 990k miles. Was it due to bad fuel?

The speed display on mine displays some info when touched, but nothing with the arrival time. I do carry a ladder in my box, but I can't see where it's going to help with this. When you say Garmin doesn't care, that is the vibe I got from them when they e-mailed me back. Not much warm and fuzzy...

There's no way that I can find to change the ETA. How do you do that? Of course, I realize there's no perfect GPS. Duh... I didn't just fall off the turnip truck, dude... But, in the case of the truck specific 465, I believe they dropped the ball on that. I know many drivers agree with me on...

Wow... Is it going to be O.K. with the Fed? There was a driver that had his contract terminated over a deer hit.

Happy birthday, old man!

That was a great essay in post 69 and I'm glad to hear that you're focused on safety. The vast, vast majority of pro drivers share that focus. Despite that, doo-doo happens. I hit a deer 2 years ago with my truck. It was on the Ohio turnpike, which is pretty wide open for the most part. It...

Slow down to 5mph every time you round a curve or crest a hill. Yeah, that's the ticket. LOL.....

Happy Birthday, Scott. Are Canadian years like dog years, or are they like normal years? I get so confused...

So, you're saying it's not possible that the driver could have come around a curve or over a hill and had the cow right there with no time to do anything? Sure, if you're on a flat road and can see the cow ahead, you react. It's just not automatically the drivers fault.

Lock yourself in a dark room and chant your Yamoo mantra and all will become clear, Grasshopper.

Yeah, well, I bet when someone goes after poutine or Labatts you'll be all over that.(Insert smilie that means someone is goofing in a very non-threatening way here.)

Well... First we have extremely attractive people being attacked. As an extremely attractive person that's carried that burden his whole life, I'm extremely offended. Then we have clowns being stereotyped as being pedophiles. Clowns are scary enough without throwing in the "P" word. Where are...

I emptied Monday afternoon in Texas. I'm in Texas.

No drinking the morning coffee on the way to work? Oh yeah, that's gonna fly...
