Thanks everyone I got my bus ticket today I'll leave the bus terminal at 10:00 Sunday morning and head to Conley GA. If all the paper work is good (it will be cause I have made sure that all I's are dotted and all the T's crossed) and I pass the physical, which I should unless my blood pressure is high due to nerves and I am a little concerned about the eye exam, I have worn glasses since I was seven years old, I am restricted to glasses but no major problems, just can't see at a long distance. They just are so strict, I just had an eye exam and got new glasses I am going to take a copy of my latest eye glass prescription just in case. Then after that I will leave GA the following Saturday morning at 5:30 a.m. and travel to Salt Lake City and arrive there around 10:00 p.m. Sunday night!!! Heck of a bus ride, lol. Fingers crossed, and prayers appreciated!!!!!

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.

DOT:

Department Of Transportation

A department of the federal executive branch responsible for the national highways and for railroad and airline safety. It also manages Amtrak, the national railroad system, and the Coast Guard.

State and Federal DOT Officers are responsible for commercial vehicle enforcement. "The truck police" you could call them.

OWI:

Operating While Intoxicated
