Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

I'm pretty sure I didnt fail philosphy class in college. So with a little applied reasoning we can deduces that coors is located in golden co. So perhaps somwhere along the lines the dedicated fleet somehow interacts with the coors brewery in the co.

 

do u have time to do anything how long do they give you for hometime?

 

You would be right Coors is in Golden Colorado, Central has the Coors dedicated acc!

On a 10 hr break I would want to sleep after driving for 10 or 11hrs
You get one day hometime for every 7 days out!

So 4 weeks driving will get you 4 days home, which is the max Central allow without a good reason!

Can we stop with the CO questions now

 

I have an HOS questions. I can see that home time is based on 1 day off out in the field for every week out driving the lower 48. Do you have to take a 34 hour reset weekly or can you save all your resets for when you get home?

 

Depends on your loads you have a 70 hr clock, so it all depends on your loads how tight they are and how well you manage your time!

You will hardly ever get load after load that are that tight, so you shouldn't have to drive your 10-11 hrs every day, so you are banking hrs.

You drive a total of 8 hrs Monday, you just banked 2 hrs, Tuesday you drive 9 hrs you banked an hr. Wednesday you drive 7 hrs you banked 3 hrs, Thursday you drive 9 hrs= 1 hr banked Friday you have 7 hrs = 3 hrs banked, Saturday you drive 8 hrs = 2 hrs banked and Sunday you have 6 hrs= 4 hrs banked for a total of 54 hrs so you have 16 hrs left of your 70 and you will start picking up hrs on the 8Th day after midnight.

That's why it is important to keep a recap of your hrs so you know how many hrs you will be picking up from day to day!

I hope that was understandable

 

I swear this thread is addictive, I'm going to wear out the ole F5 button in no time. Your information is very informative and helpful.

I'm totally addicted to R. Lee Ermy on History with his show Lock n Load. Hoooorah!

 

Kind of along the lines of Colorado is a good place to be FROM.

 

Yeah it is pretty addictive!! Oh no that means I am addicted to cigarettes and the truckers report!

 

<sarcasm>Can I refuse to go to Colorado? I think I still have an outstanding warrant for me there.:smt077</sarcasm>

Sorry Jess... couldn't resist.

edit: Yes I know about refusing loads.

 

Colorado too? I thought it was just Michigan.
