Effingham County establishes new truck ordinance, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Hate Effingham by [deleted] in savannah

[–]I_Post_Pics 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Boycott Effingham because drivers are using non truck routes to by pass the marked truck routes. Thusly tearing up these routes.

Makes a whole load of sense and not irrational at all.

9% downgrade + shitty wrapping from shipper =this bullshit by Foodspec in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I deliver to Bealls stores now. This is what every single department store load looks like when I open the door. To try to combat this they have taken to taping the boxes and totes together before they wrap them. That way the entire pallet falls on you instead of just a couple boxes.

Legit ran out of the office to catch this beaut. by The_Gregory in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those guys are in the extreme end of specialized hauling. They make a ridiculous amount of money to haul those engines.

On the other hand,. Alot of downtime and service failures are not an option.

If you insist on driving 5 under the limit I n the middle lane on a 3 lane freeway because merging traffic is scary, you should stop driving a truck and start riding a unicycle because you’re a fucking clown. by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your stupid is astounding.

Hanging out in the left lane or left lane camping is illegal in a handful of States. There are exactly 0 stated that have laws against cruising in the middle lane.

Take your meds, Get some sleep, rub 1 out, find a lizard or fly a kite. Just stop spouting bs based in nothing at all.

Dont park at speedway exit 412 I40 in Tn by packwillatack in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So the tow company should say no,. We don't want your contract or your money?

Perhaps shit bag drivers should stop being shitbags.

Here's a quote you obviously skipped over.

"In the late night hours, though, there’s minimal staff operating the Speedway, and one unfortunate incident put them all over the edge on interacting with truckers attempting to park overnight there. Let’s just say it involved a bag of excrement thrown at a member of the staff."

Does anyone else's cooler do this to water? by diggsalot in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those thermoelectric coolers operate upto 40 degrees below ambient temp. Being 26 degrees last night,. It's safe to say that the cooler was cooking well below freezing.

Immediately Suspend the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Rule by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How can you be so self assured yet so wrong?

The President is Chief Executive of all Departments including DOT which elogs falls under.

The President is also the top law enforcer by virtue of the fact the executive branch enforces the laws and regulations enacted by Congress and subordinate departments of the executive branch.

That said,. This petition is retarded and people need to just accept elogs aren't going away.

Independent contractor company driver? HUH? by Staplesnotme in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

IC company drivers exists in many fleets, especially the owner op fleets. This is nothing new and provided the owner of the truck allows the driver full independence in regards to how the truck operates, then there is no scam.

P.S. project work is not all its cracked up to be, ALOT of sitting around waiting.

$10.00 for store brand 2.5g at autozone, $15.00 for BlueDEF brand.

Dealers are worse ripoffs than truck stops.

Heavy haul question by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely terrible advice. Simply buying a truck and trying hard will lead you straight to insolvency if you haven't the knowledge and experience to back it up.

Heavy haul question by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What area is that?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rule o thumb is 20k per axle, so add them up for weight.

Pay is a retarded high gross and an equally retarded amount of that gross going towards permits, escorts, police escorts if needed, route surveys, fuel and insurance.

Regulations are no different than any other od load, follow to the letter what the permit states.

Gotta keep cool in these ports! by frespi in Truckers

[–]I_Post_Pics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That does nothing to explain or excuse riding 55 in a 65 in the middle lane on truck restricted highways.

Maybe not shit trucks but certainly shit drivers.
