    Maybe you can address this question to the Labor department of your state or OOIDA

    I agree with you but I think that if we talk enough about problems they will be finally be heard..... I mean I am not certain but .... KEEP IT KALM AND KEEP TRUCKING! You will hit many walls in your career and that, NOT ON THE ROAD!

    I would like to give you a translation of this cartoon but.... can't find one:

    I hear that.I'm not currently driving now but when it comes to laws and policies that concerns my comfort and safety I can and will defy it.I never have paid attention to the no idling signs you see at service plazas.Im tired of talking till im blue in the face and no one cares to listen or understand where im coming from so I just do my own thing.

    :) see .... That is why the industry relies on young drivers with no experience! Because those who know what it is all about get their BP too high to drive! :p don't worry I follow you

    You said a mouthful saying drivers are robots.I call them puppets on a string.Its not their fault though.Companies have them scared and intimidated and they don't wanna lose their job.Anymore in this industry is doesn't take much to be handed the pink slip.
