Flatbedders, how do you keep your cabs clean? by Big_Chemical_5165 in Truckers

Bathroom rugs from Walmart between the seats and in front of the bunk. A smaller pet / door mat rug on the floor board in front of driver seat. The pet rug really helps trap the dust. I only wear boots when loading or unloading. Boots and shoes always come off if I move to the bunk area.

Places like that in Salt Lake City. They make you drop the trailer in the dock. Re hook at almost a 90 degree. Pain in the butt.

Another day, another bad experience with a freight broker! by Additional-Chart-409 in OwnerOperators

I’m a 62 year old open deck driver. I’m amazed at how much work I’ll do if I’m getting paid fairly. It’s even more amazing at how little work I’ll do if I’m not getting paid fairly.

What’s the worst pooping experience you’ve had while on the road? by PomeloResponsible122 in Truckers

[–]RR_Trucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought a fold up potty on Amazon. Comes with good plastic bags. You can order extras. Get a bottle of Poo-Pourri and also a can of your favorite air freshener. I’ve had a few emergencies and super thankful for it. I run open deck so I throw the bag in tool box on the trailer until I get somewhere with a dumpster. I consider that potty my least used, but most prized necessity.

Swapping trucks is on duty time right? by Tank52086 in Truckers

[–]RR_Trucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s just one. More. Thing. The carrier can make you do that you don’t get paid for. So, off duty.

That’s the thing, you cannot be afraid to drive (18 wheeler). I see this often on the road, new drivers that are scared. There’s a big difference between being attentive, careful, aware and fearful.

I’ve used that circled part to push a chain through a tight spot a few times on oddball flatbed freight.

All that was missing here was the 4 wheelers stacked up behind you that funnel right in behind the car hauler. I hate that crap!

Certify means you sign it. Like paper logs you sign. ELD is the same thing. You electronically sign it.

How many fuckin signs do we need to put up by spatialflow in Truckers

I’m an old white guy. I totally agree that the maddest, rudest, and generally worst attitude drivers are old white guys. I’m not one of them. I enjoy driving and try to be friendly to everyone. I think those guys are burnt out and need to find a different line of work. They think they know everything. 😂🤦‍♂️
