    Yeah - I heard that. I’ve got a MO permit now for Monday, I didn’t hear when the 30 day suspension was starting.

    Is there anything mentioned on that FB page?

    No. I wouldn't trust hear-say for an official date anyway. Get it from the horse's mouth.

    I’ll call tomorrow. Have to come back and get another one on Friday, so I’ll be annoyed if that ruins that plan.

    Thanks

    Couple of miles from the house. Old schoolhouse that was used as a barracks still stands and is maintained.

    A few bullet holes in the bricks still.

    Landstar Ranger drivers keep getting caught off route, ignoring curfew etc - MODOT had enough and suspended oversize permits in the state for a month.

    Wonder how many violations does it take before a state puts a ban on a carrier for 30 days?

    Also, how "strict" is LS with its contractors that are getting these violations? Do they ban them from hauling permitted loads for a certain period of time?
