    It has nothing to do with elogs, the speeding fines aren't high enough and we don't have enough speed cops out here.
    There should be someone pulled over every 5 miles getting a ticket

    I think its more of a parking issue than elogs.

    I don't think it's either.
    This morning in the 55 mph construction I have a flatbed pass me running 65 to 70, I get the green light and see him in line at the scale, he passes me doing 75 in a 70,
    People have no respect for anything anymore.
    These drivers aren't fighting their hours, there's just no law enforcement
     
    peterd and Lepton1 Thank this.

    Yeah, it's called OVERDRIVING the vehicle. That stretch of 64 is near the Pilot in Nitro. With a hill and a curve to go with it.

    My company forced us into Elogs First of June I think. I sold out First of May. Over 30 years doing this, the fun of trucking left years ago. To much traffic, to much speed and way to much stupid. It's to dangerous to be fun.

    All these families lives are turned into a living hell, all because someone thought, they could drive with their head up their #@%&#
