hey In Ontario canada I was told by an mto inspector that the general rule is that if you have a yellow inspection sticker. "the lights are on you must pull over". The joke is every commercial vehicle in Ontario must have an inspection sticker, including contractors with a pick up

10-4 aikleron If you go to fcc web site and fill out the application on line it will pop up an option for vehicle choice and for quite some time it's shown on the site that they are not taking vans which I imagine includes sprinters.But of course if you wanna spend 100k on a new tractor your in...

boy skywayne I have never seen a response like that in a while.The best part, the ones who disagreed with you the most are FCC drivers.Sounds like a pretty good testiment to FCC when given the anonymous oppertunity to trash the hell out of FCC every post was positive

thankyou mygia after visiting the website for the MTO to clear up details you are correct,the rule is if you operate a cmv in ontario not just if it is registered in ontario.Just some advise though if you are heading east and west you run into a fair amount of mto stations and in summer they are...

ok here you go from a canadian driver from Ontario.The warning was put out for serveral months but it became an official law Jan 1.The maximum speed limit in ontario is 100 kilometers an hour for cars or trucks,there is no distinction in ontario.As of January first all Ontario registered trucks...

I forget the show it was on probly discovery.Air tabs in a (standing) wind tunnel made dramatic differences.WHen the same truck was brought to a university with a (rolling) wind tunnel the results showed the opposite a noticable increase in fuel consumption.As mentioned in a previous post in a...

as a call center agent we were always told to explain it this way.You are billed from "send to end " if you are in the stall no one else can come in, same idea.When you are in Canada be carefull roaming fees are ugly.Contractor (construction) in windsor working at the water front got charged...

yesteryear the first thing you wanna find out is will it effect your contract.The other thing is as a previous post mentioned is that Slingshot is associated with Sprint.What that means is Slingshot buys the internet space from Sprint and then sells it back to you.What you wanna watch is if...

this was my first thread that I have started and thank you drivers,you have actually helped quite a bit.Iguess the pipe dream for drivers who use gps is the garmin465.The funny part is one retailer in ontario canada offerd it for $650 at that price I think I'll talk to the guy who knows a...

just checked garmin.com go to onthe road and one of the options now is trucking https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=275

agreed the 465 is great but $500,a 260 with a perly truck map will do the same except with the perly you need to check if the garmin is taking you on any restricted roads,for what five mins.Its just frustrating when it seems that everything for a truck costs $400-$500 no matter what it is.The...

thats weird my company is watching pennies and we bought a garmin 260 for 200 and it came with north america

this is weird and aparently carrying mice of some sort is common.Just wondering could you not use some sort of rubber maid bin to use,so the "cargo" would not escape or would t-c requirements get in the way

It is almost impossiable to get honest opions on web sites,what GPS units have worked best for you.I don't wanna spend $500. obviously unless it will drive for me I don't care if it has sat. radio or blue tooth.What units do you like and what units surprised you the most good or bad

this thread was awesome you should do this every month or something.Just to stay a head of the game.Sorry I had to throw one too.

I've always told my Boss's "no check Friday no me Monday" I don't hold it against them I just tell them let me know when the check is coming and I'll come in.The Boss' reaction to that should tell you everything you need to know

new to the business I mostly work in Ontario,does a garmin not work well in new york.and thank you for the info on the yellow and white signs,the signs in Ontario do the same they compensate for snow but your only real concern is in down town Toronto old toronto

doug 12 pages for just a fun silly idea im impressed.keep it up

just some canadian names to research mostly out of Mississauga.Over the road,DJA,PACEX,JUST RUSH.the recruiter at over the road was pretty straight forward with the info.and I have not heard to many if any bad things from drivers at dja.sorry for the lack of detail but just a few more ideas...

I remember applying for a local job once and they asked for a criminal,which comes from the local PD.No problem I said do you want my FAST card,the look on their face said enough.Local police are going to catch what the FBI and RCMP didn't catch not likely
