we just bought a kodak p811 scanner 10 long 2 by 2 square just like neat receipts, has a 400 mb sd card runs on batteries or ac does pictures and docs. is compatible with mac and windows. 119$ doesnt print but pretty neat. google it and it will come up or go to qvc.com and search for it.

by auxiliary, do you mean additional above and beyond dot required. not sure of the exact regulation #, but there is a statement to the effect that if it is on or added to the truck it is suppose to work. something to the effect of all equipment on the vehicle should be in working order. that...

if you back over an object and damage a mudflap or bracket or weight to the point it could be a hazard, then it becomes unsafe equipment and should be caught upon the next pti or sooner and fixed. i have seen flaps on top of tires going down the road [usually dump trucks] just being eaten away...

maybe said next carrier will hold the driver to a higher standard and correct his ways. no, the scores shouldnt and wont follow carrier to carrier. what will weed them out is what i stated before the new pre emp screening process. also as you stated, ins. co. will play a part in this also. i see...

i dont think drivers actually have a score, but you can put a numeric, by looking at the point system to anything on your record to make a score. the points you receive at a carrier dont go to the next carrier for the carriers score but you do keep your violations. the pre emp. screening system...

this has me confused. can we, or how do we as drivers get our so far compiled scores.

i clicked my fingers raw on this, trying to find something to oppose but could not. no, it doesnt seem rite. as stated though, it is all in how the particular officer/state handles it. it would be nice if, for once they would get together and get it rite. drivers dont need the inconvenience of...

i agree with all of you about how a officer looks at the law, in his own mind. but as i stated before, all i can find in print and all i have heard on the radio in discussions with csa reps. still show an inspection form needs to accompany a violation to be counted. of course i do understand...

yes, as far as all the research i have done. another good source is the landline now web site as well as lets truck web site. the landline web site has some really good info. spend some time listening to the xm/sirus trucking radio channel xm 171 sirus 147. they discuss this and it is...

unless given a dot inspection form along with the ticket, the ticket/warning just goes against the drivers license not your csa score. tried to post a link but could not get it done, but go to fleetowner .com search for trucks at work blog Q/A. about half way down is the the answer to the dot...

I use blue corral car wash a good wash mitt and a kitchen sponge w/the scrubber. Get the cheap ones the are not as aggressive and wont scratch. Dont push hard though. I generally uses gunk engine degreaser. I wax with super glaze made by "the wax shop" been using this wax for 20 yrs, great...

i personally would have an alignment done anywhere other than e ftlnr dealership.

Has anyone called the commander of the district where these pullovers have been happening and questioned him about the practices. Sometimes this goes along way. We used to get stopped in LA. all the time and asked to go in just to have them verify gvw on reg. I called and was told there was no...

My bad, i did get the two mixed up. I was thinking midwest expediting. My apologies for the misunderstanding. I cannot find anything on them either,

you can search the EO site but instead just take my advice from having read all the posts or atleast enough of them. they are a very shady company and are not very upstanding.

You mentioned names, I did not. That is exactly what i meant by my statement. The big three do lease trucks to have enough of them to cover their freight. instead of the other way. It is a volume of trucks that these carriers work off of. By this i mean the mentality of putting 10 trucks in ...

I will give you all the info you need and i have never even leased to them. RUN AWAY !!!!!!

Your volume statement says it all. I have always said and told newbies coming into the business that there are two kinds of companies, those who lease on trucks to cover their freight and those who find freight for their trucks. There is a difference between the two models.

I agree, money can be made if one is prepared before going on the road. By this i do not mean what you need to get started, any smart business plan involves start up costs and monies to keep the business solvent for a nominal amount of time. More important is to have bills on the personal side...

we have had the SEATS brand in our truck for going on 5 yrs. now. the legacy low series, and my butt could not be happier. pretty good set of seats for about 1500 $. seating part is much wider and thicker than most.
