Officers Search Semi Truck Because Driver’s Clothes Were Too Clean. This Is What They Found.

Sounds like they were tipped off and not wanting to disclose it.

Not a bad idea honestly. Gives the name of his recruiter and his name, every person that refers him if they get hired he gets a bonus. With how many people watch him on youtube he has probably gotten allot.

I totally agree.

DOT physical

It's not hard to find a Dr.on the DOT registry in your area. Get a DOT physical. And study your states DMV book and get your permit and go from there.

I had a medical examiner require that I take a stress test over a heart related issue that I had over 20 years ago. The FMCSA leaves it up to the medical examiner. Have you had a stress test lately?

Welcome TJ! I'm in Indiana, though I didn't go to celadon my trainer used to work for them. I know the route you will have to do for your skills test and if you want any info about it I would be happy to help. I tested at the same facility that they use.

Well that's not too bad of an outcome. Everyone makes mistakes. The key in trucking is to make sure you never make any big ones. This was obviously a small one and hopefully it will help keep you sharp. Make sure you cover the small details that make all the difference in any procedure.

It definitely was a valuable lesson for me. Since then I've run across a number of other trailers that other drivers have left with the landing gear cranked down too much including one that someone cranked all the way down.

Hopefully they were empty trailers!

Question about drug testing

Depending on how many mg per day you have been talking and for how long. They recommend weaning your body from them by .5mg per month. Stopping cold turkey can have some effects nobody wants.
