    Since the changes in the HOS rules have changed, and been unsucessfully challenged twice, safety numbers have improved. If these wackos succeed in having the rules changed back, and the safety numbers get worse, are they willing to be held financially responsible?
    And then I woke up!

    I want 11hr driving.

    With 10, I cannot complete the trip legally and I wont see my family as much.

    BTW, the AVERAGE OTR company driver is not driving anywhere near the maximum amount of hours a week.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I think most of you otr guys are lucky to log 2500miles per week on average.
