    Nah it wasn't CR, was a owner operator. 10 hours of bunk time. After I mulled through his book he stated all the "errors" he made and had been driving with only 5 hours rest in the last 30-32 hrs. Ran a load pretty hard to florida and was back north with produce.

    I feel for the guy, probably just trying to make a living, but 5 hours rest out of 30-32 just ain't right. Good thing he got stopped...maybe saved lives and his career!

    This from a student?

    No wonder you guys get out here and do the things you do!
    I've sat across the table from OHTW and found him to be surprisingly bright for an old geezer...Now, He's not much to look at but when you're sitting next to someone as good lookin' as me...No one's gonna see you anyway so he had nothing to worry about!:biggrin_25522:

    Hang tight OH, I've got your back on this one. It's simple math.....BW900 has been driving for 37 years, got his license when he was 18.
    37 + 18 = ###### near old as me and you!!!!!:biggrin_25525:
     
    otherhalftw Thanks this.

    DB..So what made you stop him to begin with? With that little rest, was probably having a hard time keeping it between the lines.
