IF you cant drive in the snow then as my dad said you need to put your CDL under the mat and find something else to do. I delivered Friday in Tampa Florida, went to the truck stop and waited for co driver to get done I got my 10 back then got a Relocate option DH I drove 10 hours and 53 min with the 30 min break in between. Turned the truck over to a co driver who drove 45 miles to a halfway house and shut down. Ok the half way house was full no parking. I got my 10 back I decide to go the rest of the way vice getting hit by all the other non driving truckers out there. There was no place to park so got my 10 back and left talked to a state trooper before I left and he agreed as he had already 35 reports of trucks getting backed into there. So I left. I got to where I am at and thought that I get me something to Eat at the K&T Truck stop. I called yup were open all night. Got Here Sat Night and guess what big sign we be back at 7am I get this morning and now the sign say 2pm. Got a Head ache and am hungry as HECK! Friday all Day all nite then Sat all day and into the nite. By the way to you OOPS out there you get what you pay for weather its a equipment or drivers By cheap pay cheap get cheap. Made in Mexico China Japan Hint. Dad told me along time ago when I started if you afraid of driving on the snow then park it and get out and find yourself another form of work as driving is what you picked. He also said don't be afraid of the snow and ice but do respect it because if your afraid of it you second guess your actions and then you will get hurt. Enough said!!! One last word of advice for those who road Motocross or did hill climbs you know as well as I that you had to be one with the bike to succeed the same goes with driving the truck and trailer be one with it. Mission accomplished the Garbage taken out.

If only the grammar and proofreading skills equalled that of the legendary driving skills...
BTW, Cupcake, what would dear old Dad say about driving in snow? Not sure anyone could decipher that.....
What did Dad say, Respect it but don't be afraid of driving in it if you are you will second guess your self and then you be in trouble. Dad said if your a fare weather Driver then you don't need to be driving period. That being said (CUP CAKE) For those of you who cant drive or should I say are fare weather drivers then you don't belong on the road. You don't need no sticking decoder Ring for that.. Far as grammar goes IM Da Burn GLAD I can keep you in a job of trying to correct my Spelling (Grammar) Job Security and all that You Know. That being said Teacher Your Very Welcome. Hey I'm a catalyst I Make things Happen. Keep you going on here see it's working is it Not!!! Have a nice day and glad your still at work checking my Grammar. Garbage is out next.
