    Swift made a more liberal over speed policy a couple months ago, so you may notice on downgrades Swift company trucks will start being able to match speed with you.

    BigKat, congratulations on your new job !

    Nothing better than low pay, lots of miles, no benefits and the ability to shoot all those billions of bad guys killing truck drivers. Woot ! Woot !

    I work at a mid sized company, APU, 68 mph and ELogs. Brand new equipment and safe and legal. And that's how it should be.

    One of my friends I met at Sleep Pointe works where you are. He said he sits too much, only gets over 3000 miles a week. Lame.

    I was going to go to crete but the cameras were a turn off. Decided to go with Knight instead. They have a speed incentive for your idle time. If you idle all the time, your reduced to 62, if you keep it less than 10% you go 65.
