    I’m just not big on touching other people’s equipment or property regardless of what they’re doing or how it makes me feel.

    1) Many years ago, I learned the hard way to only trust 3 people with a secret: me, myself, & I.
    2) It's sad to say, even family, friends & relatives can do you in, really sad to say.

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead.

    Keep in mind they found the meth in his cab, not his trailer. Good old meth head Canadians running produce with D'Angelo.

    1) Unless one is a trained investigator or law enforcement officer, it's best to stay out of other people's business, legal or illegal.
    2) The one not minding his or her own business could end up either in serious legal trouble, or worse, end up dead.

    Well, excuse me if I have no sympathy for the guy running blatantly illegal plates after getting caught and charged with METH in his truck. The whole "no snitching" thing is just an excuse made up by criminals to try and guilt people into not helping enforce the law.

    Canadian Trucker Caught With Meth Hidden In Pineapple Shipment On Route 17: Police

    A Canadian truck driver was arrested earlier this week after police discovered methamphetamine hidden in his tractor-trailer, officials said.

    Officer Nicole DiPasquale was on routine patrol around 11:30 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 11,, when she noticed a tractor-trailer struggling to maintain its lane on Route 17 North, Mahwah Police Capt. Guido Bussinelli said. Officer DiPasquale conducted a motor vehicle stop and spoke with the driver, who was later identified as Dominic Perras, 47, of Canada.

    Perras, who claimed he was transporting pineapples from Wilmington, DE to Montreal, had outdated documentation and gave inconsistent details about his travel plans, according to police. As the stop continued, Perras reportedly became increasingly nervous, prompting Officer DiPasquale to ask for and receive his consent to search the vehicle.

    With assistance from Officer Nicholas Williams and Officer William Reardon, Officer DiPasquale searched the tractor portion of the truck and located two plastic bags containing pills labeled “ICE,” which were later identified as methamphetamine, Bussinelli said. Perras was then arrested and taken to the Mahwah Police Department for processing.

    The driver now faces charges for distribution and possession of methamphetamine, along with several motor vehicle violations. After processing, he was transferred to the Bergen County Jail, where he awaits a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing (CJP) Court.

    Additional Mahwah officers assisted at the scene, including Sergeant Rosario Zito, Officer Reardon, Officer Williams, and K-9 Officer Sean Hayes with K-9 Rino.
