    Van stolen...please help

    I hate to sound negative but I suspect the phone was nowhere near the van when the message was sent and tracking the phone would send authorities away from the van .

    TriState & Caterpillar

    But the carriers don't own the trucks so how is their overhead a lot larger ? Expedite service depends on truck availability . To have trucks available you have to have so many trucks sitting waiting . That's why carriers don't own the trucks .

    Daylight Savings Time

    There was a post on another forum by a member that would be driving when the time changed and he was going to leave a gap in the line between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. . Think about that .

    ON and QC speed limiter

    There is nothing saying you have to run 105 km/h just because the limiter is set there . The speed limit is 100 km/h . Run at that speed or a little less and you'll be able to accelerate if need be .

    Driving a straight rig w/o a cdL?

    Since a CDL isn't required for air brakes in NY then it obviously isn't a Federal requirement . http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/forms/mv500n.pdf

    newscast on trucking jobs

    That may happen to some degree . In the meantime current students end up with a useless CDL and if they do get hired will have to pay for a refresher course . If the economy picks up though so will other fields besides trucking and the more educated will turn there . I've read many posts on...
