Why cant I have booze or guns in my sleeper berth?

There is no law that says you cannot have a firearm in a commercial vehicle. There is a law for alcohol though.

 

I thought they banned weapons from the barracks, they probably don't allow booze either.

Looks like the military prepared you for this job.

 

yeah and I can take vacation in Colorado and legally get stoned but go back to work a week later, get drug tested and then fired.
go figure that one.

It's a messed up planet with BS everywhere you go. that's life if you haven't figured it out yet lol

 

Maybe the company you work for doesn't allow it, however that doesn't mean it's against the law. There is a discussion every week about this. There is nothing in the little green book concerning personal firearms. Traveling with your firearm in a truck is the same as traveling in a car.

 

Got pulled into the scale at Brownsville, TN years ago. DOT man stood on the running board and aked what was in the cooler. I had pop in the cooler, but he went ahead and checked the sleeper and came out of the truck with 5 cans of beer. He asked me why I had 5 cans of beer in the sleeper, and I told him, because I didnt want to drink a whole 6 pack, but also didnt want to pay 2.00 for one beer at a tavern.
The fine was 100 per can of beer and he shut me down for 24 hrs.

So if your going to drink in your sleeper, make ###### sure you drink it all!
