    I've never had issues in Ohio. Indiana is the state that my old company and this company have cited as being hard on truckers. Pulled many of our drivers over for 1mph over the limit and gave them a roadside inspection for it.

    What makes it worse is that 50% of Indiana is inactive construction zones with 55mph speeds. Very tempting to go 70mph especially at night when nobody is on the road

    They used that a lot when the truck speed was 55 mph.

    PA is watching the steeper drops harder, too. Watch your tail going down 322 east of State College. It's CLEARLY posted 20mph for vehicles over 20,000lbs. And the State Troopers are out hunting throughout the week.

    Can't get us on logs anymore, so they are going to speeding tickets as the new source of ready revenue. And PA is flat out BROKE!

    Just drove through west Virginia + Virginia today. Saw 4 semis pulled over in total. I'm guessing all speed related. I took a 30min break on a rest area ramp and saw a cop stroll through. Thankfully he didn't bother me because i was sitting in the driver seat looking busy. Those states are swarming with cops.

    Apparently they’re extra busy in Michigan yesterday. My daughter usually calls Me on her way home from work. Said she’s never seen so many Bears. I asked if they were SUVs. Yep. DOT. Glad I’m home, they always pick on Me. Bunch of NAZi BOOT wearing rude DOT, here. Not even respectful, just rude. Time for a protest. Lol.
