    Just curious.

    Has anyone delivered to the CHOP Zone in Seattle? It's only six blocks but it seems where would be businesses there or immediately surrounding it.

    Has anyone experienced anything other than business as usual in regard to the rioting?

    Just curious. (I feel I have to say that twice because someone is bound to say I'm asking out of fear)

    Seattle would be a good test site for the Neutron Bomb. If it works well there, there's at least a Dozen other cities where it should be deployed.

    Right now if I were still active I would refuse to make any pickups or deliveries in LA or OSF area of California. I would also not do so in or within 75 to 100 miles of the ocean pretty much from LA north to the Canadian border. I also would not operate in Chicago OR NYC! If forced to do so I would ask where does the carrier want their truck parked.

    Nope. I haven't been to Seattle, but I have been bouncing between the left and right coasts for the past 2 months and were it not for posts on here and the occasional news reports I happen upon, I wouldn't know anything was amiss.

    Just drove through LA today enroute to Washington state and there is absolutely nothing going on as far as I could see.

    There are plenty of reasons to not want to go to LA, but rioting or protests aren't among them.

    CHAZ was dissolved weeks ago. And it looks like overblown news as far as rioting and blockades and all that.
     
    gentleroger and Redtwin Thank this.

    Turn off the TV and these disturbances would be pretty much non-existent for the vast majority of the country.

    Delivering in Auburn, just outside of Seattle, tomorrow morning. I have no worries or concerns at all.

    Yep, I was there yesterday. Clean sailing. Parking, that’s another story.
