You know what’s more fun than trucking down a icey snow filled road with nothing in the trailer behind ya?
Bob tailing in it. Don’t ever ever touch the brakes.
Rolling stops preferably.
What if it Snows?

I have had the immense pleasure of a single drive deciding it was time to slide.
All i did was lift off the power and around it came.
ran along at near 90deg to the road for over a 1/4 mile before it found something resembling traction and straightened itself up.LoSt_AgAiN, Dave_in_AZ, D.Tibbitt and 8 others Thank this. -
I usually scream like a girl, close my eyes and jerk the wheel left and right.
Only 17 accidents so far.LoSt_AgAiN, Dave_in_AZ, Wasted Thyme and 5 others Thank this. -
Thats not the correct way to handle it. You should be opening the door and exiting stage left!LoSt_AgAiN, Dave_in_AZ, Wasted Thyme and 5 others Thank this.

$500 for not having them if inspected, $500 for being caught not using them when required, $1600 if you block the roadway when chains required and not using them.
Have to run down I-25 to experience the wind... Then run from Denver to Utah on I-70 during chain restriction... In the dark.LoSt_AgAiN, Dave_in_AZ, D.Tibbitt and 5 others Thank this. -
What the hell you guys don’t have snow over there.
I never had to bobtail anywhere except a mile to the farm most days accept once.
We used to haul for one of the biggest dairy farms in the US 180 miles from our yard.
I show up with a empty and the competition company that hauled took my full by accident
I proceeded to drive down. I-65 bobtailing 20 miles to a loves to grab a shower and fuel since I was on fumes
I came up over a overpass and there were blue lights everywhere and a few trucks wrecked.
I was only doing 40 mph on the snowy icey road before I saw the lights.
Thank god there was some room on the left shoulder and lane for me to coast by at 30
You couldn’t have paid me to tap the brakes
I had forward slung tanks with no fuel and a Set back forward axle.
I tapped the brakes to test them on the icey roads earlier doing 20 and about spun out.LoSt_AgAiN, WesternPlains, lovesthedrive and 2 others Thank this.
