We're in a log jam in Atlanta right now and listening to some of this CB chatter is better than stand up comedy.

Same happened to me in Illinois when 70 was shut down fir 7 hours I listened to this one guy try and fight everyone. And he berated every west bound person for telling us that we would be there for s while.

It was pretty entertaining. I think the term for the truck stops or terminals is terminal rats, then there are the airway rats.., new name you heard it here first... lol

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

I love listening to all the slang and made up terminology. Some of the women were just as funny.

We call some of them yahoos "Radio Rambos". Never fails to entertain

OOS:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
