    Companies that fine drivers

    Turri, the agent you loaded for would not load you again and if it happened to many times Landstar would pull your contract. That said here at Landstar you have time to get from point A to b.. We have to average between 45 and 50 MPH on a load. Therefore if I'm loaded 4 hours late then I'll be 4...

    Getting jacked up by the cops in Iowa right now

    No, what you don't seem to understand is people have a different view on the constitution then you do and others that are on the far right. The republicans are the ones who are the ones who stepped on the constitution during the Bush years after 9/11 and the right seems to forget that. I did...

    Getting jacked up by the cops in Iowa right now

    Wrong turn to Mexico

    One stupid driver since there are two exits before the border. I could be wrong but is ammo 1.4 placard or did they change the placarding requirement for ammo. I would have been surprised if he even made it past the entrance point going into Mexico. Oh well takes one more idiot off the road.

    Us dot number?

    The reason you see dot numbers on vans is because the law is if any vehicle in the company needs a dot number then all vehicles have to display one. It doesn't mean anything because if the vehicle your in is under 10k your not a commerical vehicle. Simple answer.
