Why would anyone drive without HM ?

I agree with you Moose. I am going to be adding Hazmat to my CDL once we are able to get home (well that is if I am smart enough to pass the test, the study guide appears pretty daunting to me). Haven't seen home since Xmas so haven't been able to take the test and get the clearances. Reason we don't have it now is because we were told it really wasn't worth it that there wasn't that many hazmat loads. Have since found out that is not true but just haven't had the time to "git er done". :rolleyes:

Drove up I65 from Alabama to Indy, that road is brutal especially in Louisville,KY I was being thrown around, truck was doing the pogo stick at one point and I lost control for a second. Think my brain is shaken enough today. My straight truck has a stiff suspension, maybe they all do,maybe not :eek: Do other straight truck drivers have this problem with the roads and the rough ride? I was only going 50to55 and you couldn't really tell the bump would be that big till you hit it. Even knocked my visors down and my cell phones went flying.
Oh BTW in Elkton, TN there is the Boobie Bonanza, wish I could have got a picture of that sign LOL:D
Back at home again in beautiful Fort Wayne, In

Good to know,I'll have to slow way down through there, next time I'm riding on leaf spring front and rear

Had my first stop and inspection of my truck in Kentucky today, kinda wondered why they stopped me is it random or do I look guilty :rolleyes: I've been driving with a plain white truck for two months, no dot numbers or anything and never got stopped
I get my decals and numbers and I get stopped.
