Joe & Tow's new trucking adventures/ex GTI thread

You need to go to dmv office and self certify that you haul cargo that is exempt from needing a dot physical at least thats what you can do in Georgia.

 

they just busted a cdl ring in Florida a couple weeks ago...they are cancelling 500 CDLs that came out of that school

 

ES Express will be looking for drivers

 

Same thing happened in TX a few years ago

 

Same thing happened in Cali back in 2005, but the licenses were coming out of CR England's school.....

 

Caught another ring just last week in California:

Well, I saw quite the sight today. After the one where the doubles driver pulling his tandem set lost it and it went sailing down the road unattached to anything.

"I'm free! I'm free!"

There is no faster way to get all the local LEOs to come a-hustlin' than to have a commercial motor vehicle have a maintenance issue. Fortunately,my here were no POVs involved and the errant tandem set kind of stopped on the side of the road all by itself. But I bet the driver is t having a very good night...

But back to the story.

So where out on I70, I was heading eastbound, somewhere west of St. Louis, where I am tonight. There, on the other side of the road heading westbound, was a train of sorts made up of GTI trucks being pulled by three or four GTI trucks. The interesting thing is they all had the Gordon decals and individually were red, white, and blue, errrr, aquatint. I've seen the blue and one red, but I had never seen a white Gordon truck with the decals on it.

As I said, they were all headed west. Maybe Indy. Maybe not.

 

If you were in st louis and they were heading west...indy is east

 

Was he driving a white Volvo ? Lol

 

Well, of course it is. I've just been doing this same TJ Maxx DC run this week and my internal compass is messed up. Can you believe I was a professional pilot for a living once?

But they were heading west. That much I know.
