Ohio Highway Patrol on warpath.....

Ohio is always up to something.

 

When didn't Ohio be on a war path, I have more issues with Ohio than any other state. Yesterday pulled one of my trucks over on US30 for a hazmat check after he already had level one near Indiana. She was just filling her quota.

 

Probably pissed off bc they live in OH!! lol

 

Seems different states have different approaches. I do mostly the tri-state area at night and I've seen dot exactly once in six months.

 

Ohio is always a problem state. I got inspected in Girard. I didn't even know they send you a ticket in the mail for certain violations. They always have so many trucks hemmed up there. I try to cross scales in Ohio after 5.

 

I grew up in southern Ohio in the late 60's and early 70's. Speed traps and cops with an attitude are just a way of life there. Got my first ticket there back in 1976 for going 46 in a 45. The judge was a friend of our family and told the cop to quit being an ***hole and leave people alone.

 

they are still mad they cant write tickets anymore to truckers for going over 55mph

 

I live in a small town in Ohio and we have noticed the State Highway Patrol out a LOT more than usual all over the state. It use to be rare that we would see them unless we headed south towards Columbus but I've seen them at least 6 times in the past few days. We have also had an abundance of MVA's recently.

 

those accidents cant be truckers because we are all safe and sound on elogs now lol
