Like being a truck driver with no CDL? What would be the point? You're a member on here for several years, but don't wish to drive with a CDL?

That's a great achievement for any driver at any job, but especially for the things we go through daily. Congratulations!

Your car so everything that happens in it is on you. Unless you are found not guilty by the court, your chances are close to zero for getting hired.

After reading the SaferWeb data, 32 drivers for 100,000 miles driven, no HAZMAT, and lots of OOS for equipment inspections....

Then there's this

I would avoid this outfit.

Driver hit a Deere.

Here's one to ask it:

"Which is better....flatbed, reefer, or dry van?"

I always carry a minimum of 10 chains. Why? Suppose I do chain in WA, but one breaks or is lost....now I have nine. Then I'm on the return leg from the shipper, and the same thing happens again. Shortly afterwards I get inspected at a scale, but I pass because I have the minimum required.

Two is one and one is none. Keep a spare (or two) of everything.

Now I would sometimes, in the dirt of our trailers rear doors scribble "FJB"

I've been doing this for the previous three years. One year to go.
