They just don't have the sensibility to get your humor? I'm sure it's not you!! I've always said it, there can never be one size fits all for HOS. And, the idea that just conforming to the rules will absolutely make a driver safe is pure folly. You got it right, you're tired when you're tired...

Which is what we've been doing since HOS has been in existence.

That would be an awesome standard, too bad we have that pesky sequester....

Truckers did just fine for decades without the 34 reset and will be just fine with this change. I already take a break, so the half hour doesn't bother me at all. It's my belief that the vast majority of expediters will see very little, if any, impact from these changes. I'm now prepared to be...

The one in Little Rock is across from the Petro on I40.

They've recently put towers up on 65. Big improvement... 4G

Well, the good news is that after the 2 days you wouldn't need the full 34, just one more day off and get 14 back in the recap. Yeah... I know... But, at least it's something. Be aware that in addition to the DOT, we also have the spelling police. Your misspelling of the word "theory" has...

Megyn Kelley. They've got Megyn Kelley and that's really all that matters.

I'm just not seeing anything wrong with using a window van. If the freight can be properly secured, then it's all good. I know somebody that's used only window vans for close to 20 years and he's never had an issue with a customer or his carrier. Put some curtains on the windows and it's all good.

Just wondering... Why would you be concerned with the thread getting back on topic when you think the subject matter isn't appropriate in a forum?
