Well first I think that many on EO has an issue when somethings are brought up in the open as if it was gospel of expediting or something like that. I still amazed at the amount of secrets people think they have to hold in order to make money in this business. Second Phil is a special case, he...

Wow look at all that work to prove what I am saying is wrong ( I lumped all the comments together) but not one thing about how the process takes place or who actually is in control of what. So from emails I got a while ago, from states DOT offices and from people over at the Federal Department...

Well not really. The system is not clear as many make it out as, they have to be adopted through the state legislative process because the feds can't regulate the roads and many are under the belief that it is an automatic thing when it is not. The state is the licensing facilitator, they...

I hope you enjoy your ticket. If it is a legally marked handicap zone, you can't park there.

How does 2012 look brighter? The republican party dropped the ball and did nothing other than their usual compromising - absolutely no leadership from them on the debt ceiling issue. Obama, as much as his numbers have dropped in the polls, has done one amazing thing - told the American...

... What ... lag?

Not trying to argue with you but I found out that many states don't use the FMCSA regulations because they don't have to follow everything but can adopt different and sometimes more stringent rules. I think Virginia has endorsements for Prosthetics, Mechanical driving aids and Physically...

The 400 lb exemption was a cluster.... because the feds allowed the state to either adopt it or not, leaving the entire idea of an idle free state up in the air.

Not all states actually have that restriction and many have the mechanical aid and other restrictions listed in the the list I have and there is no federal requirement. However taking the test with an autoshift opposed to an automatic or ultramatic can be construed as anything but an automatic...

Wow pasta salad with pea vines - yummy!!

It makes sense but really doesn't address the issue of the Now. 1% sounds like a start, the budget baseline reduction is a very big issue and has been since the 30's but you have two factors involved that are external to this; one is a lame congress who worry about reelections and the other is...

But we have that right now with the revolving door and the easy licensing system.

May be with all the "stuff" being said over this and that, Bin Laden would have been better off to go with his original plans and hit the UN building.

I think one of the problems now we have is the truck drives like a car. Unlike what many want to make it out like, the truck has evolved where anyone can drive it. I'm getting ripped in another thread about fatigue but I can tell you from driving different vehicles, what is claimed to be the...

Yeah so?? Your one team out of how many on the road and I am not targeting any one person or team. I have no doubt that you and a few others are safe and careful drivers but out of how many who may not - I don't want to find out who they are by having them run me off the road or hit me. What...

Well you may not like my opinion but if you can't handle the test, you won't handle the road which is much harder. On top of that, there is no real difference between the class A and B license other than what you are going to drive for the test. You will have to do the same exact thing for...

Well you know Pilgrim, the people need a good wakeup call and because reid and the dems all voted to table the house bill in the senate, we are still without any positive movement and most likely will just get an increase to "save" the country at the last minute. This is the fault of the...

The amount of pain was high, I used something aloe with lidocaine in it and it helped me sleep but overall it was a hard two weeks and happy it is over.

Actually it does. You take a typical legal day and it accounts for the fatigue behind the wheel very well by having an 10 hour reset. The HOS regs can't take in account the person's habits and how they regulate their sleep. Well don't we have a group right here who drive vans 1000 miles at a...

Sorry Monger I hope you are not offended by this but I can't sit and read that.
