Important Truckers Forum Notice!

The Truckers' Image Under The Driver's Hat. Discuss ways for truckers to improve their image. Urine bottles, trashy truck stops and no truck parking signs abound. How do we change our image and earn respect back?

Another "news" report...

while trolling around, this "interview" was brought to my attention. unfortunately, I haven't posted enough messages to insert the entire link. it was a segment that aired on CNN & it's in the video section. search under the title "big rigs a big danger?"

there is a link at the top for feedback & a link for email underneath the video player.

that video explains it in a nutshell-this is what many guys have to do to live out here in CA. WE HAVE BIG HOUSE PAYMENTS OUT HERE!!! a guy living in nowhereville arkansas can afford to haul cheap freight,those of us out here cannot afford not to do what is needed to earn enough to cover our living expenses. i don't agree with the cutting corners on equipment maintainence-thats downright stupid. as to re-writing a log book page to correct a mistake,as long as you're getting proper sleep,you are just managing you time wisely.
