Seems obviously true to me. He looked pretty drunk and admits he'd been drinking on the video. I guess it could be like one of those videos where the drunk comedian riding a lawn mower gets pulled over, but I don't think anyone's going to drive a truck like that for YouTube comedy.

Glad no one was hurt. This guy definitely needs to lose his license.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Guy blew a .28 - operating a TT?

He should be buried up to his neck, and have rocks thrown at his head. Oh, wait - this isn't the Middle East.

Dragging a WALMART BOX at that? Hope he was a WalMart corp driver - I can see the company he drives for (other than Wally Corp) losing their contract over this one.

After the Tracey Morgan thing, not great press for WalMart. Red Tractor - who is this? US Express?

I don't think I could ever be a cop. The patience this trooper showed was incredible.

Paul Was. I was gonna say the same thing. The professionalism here is commendable. How did he not rip him a new one?

I was thinking the same thing; amazing how civil and professional that officer was. The patience he displayed was remarkable.
