    5 Things DOT Inspectors Want Drivers To Know

    Regarding the headlight,, That is the most likely time a headlight will go bad, between point A and B. It certainly isn't going to go out when I'm in the sleeper or sitting in my driveway. Its a safe bet most lights go out while in transit due to road conditions and vibrations/jolts from bad...

    Split loads...Cross-docking

    Tst is fairly good about Xdocking freight (or was). That was why it was never a problem going deep for them. They had xdocks in Erlanger area, Cincinnati area,and a few other spots we would swap loads from different directions on a regular basis. And of course the Woodhaven yard but that was...

    I-75 Rebuild (North of Detroit)

    So they are going to spend over a Billion $ and not fix two of the biggest bottlenecks in the area? Not saying the rebuild isn't needed but thinking money would be better spent other ways. HOV lanes would be better served as thru traffic lanes only. I'm thinking at least/nearly 70% of all truck...

    Hello August

    I agree, turned down a Chicago yesterday because of tolls and with no reimbursement and the fact its more then likely a empty move home resulting in more tolls. No wake up call this morning so I must be in the dog house.

    Well looks like the month is going to end just like it started.. No freight. 2 weeks now produced 2 loads. Both resulting in heading home empty.. Yesterdays reply was Yes we get lots of freight out of that area.

    Intel map for Lexington for those heading down there. Zip Car use to offer discounts on rentals for Ingress players, their locations are portals as they are also sponsors of the game. Not sure if discount still applies. Resistance players there is some AP to be had.. Enlightened players, Well...

    Why'd July to dispatch ??

    Man that sure looks like a knuckle buster. Nothing like carrying a good set of tools, Breaker bar, wheel socket and a good quality 4 way wheel wrench. With tools quality goes a long ways. As far as those mirriors, I imagine ya do get a real good view as that tire starts to pass ya up. :D Glad...

    OUT AND BACK

    I would be willing to bet I can match your Deadhead or exceed it or anyone else on this forum. Heck I might even put it up against anyone in the industry. )Well except for Fastman of course, as he has been at it longer and with the same company longer then me.) Without pulling out the log book...
