    Do You Buy Fuel in Mount Vernon, IL?

    That is unbelievable. I could see a justification if it were the truckers doing the harassing. But to tax someone who is the victim of the harassment, for calling upon protective services? That's like the town leaving a gaping hole in the road in a crosswalk and charging a fee to the people who...

    Writing a service proposal?

    What kind of company was it? Courier? Sounds to me like he may have misunderstood you were asking to be taken on as an owner/operator under them? In any case, he is looking for a written proposal of what you can do for him, with what equipment. There are lots of websites you can find that...

    Canada New Legislation In Ontario

    What will this mean for the drivers paying monthly fees for QCs? They won't be legally allowed to have these on while driving? They will have to go back to using the phones? How can laws get passed so quickly when they want them to?

    Speed Limiters

    As far as I know, they haven't set the parameters for the speed limiters. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it could end up being anything. I personally don't think vans/sprinters will be affected, and I'm wondering if even under 26001# will be affected. I don't see how one province can mandate that...

    Need help!!!

    That seems pretty unreasonable to me. Does this company also take a holdback or escrow? If not, perhaps that is their way of having something to fall back on, should they need to make a deduction from you? You will forever be in a position of them owing you thousands of dollars. What happens...

    haz mad

    If companies carried insurance for hauling hazmat, they would have to charge higher rates to help cover the high insurance cost. Placarding and endorsements is one thing, insurance is another. Personally, I wouldn't be willing to take the risk of being rendered uninsured in the event something...
