Flashing Brights!!!!!!!!

10 hour breaks and 34 hour restarts over 4 years.

What is it to you?

I do about 170,000 miles a year.

As far as the question mark ?, Why is there one on your's as well?

I guess you are not a REAL driver compared to me.

 

Wow lotta hostility in here today--while I'm not a fan of brights--I have had a few drivers tell me that their newer trucks w/daytime running lites cannot be shut off unless the brakes are locked--even if they thro the switch nothing happens--so all they can flash is their hibeams--I know a bunch of the old freight hauler types(in newer trucks)will hit their blink switch and u see the cab(clearnce lites blink) I guess they fighure if you don't see it your not paying attention anyway--but at least they don't blind you--as for me I have come to expect the blinding--it's rude--but there is a lot of rude on theroad today anyway isn't there?
Just my $.02

 

wow you guys sound like a couple of old ladies at bingo yappin at each other...

 

Kill yourself now.....Avoid the rush!

 

if i do 100k a year im pushing to hard... 170k don't want any part of that

 

I run a lot and I run hard....I see about 130,000 a year.

 

I say "Foul".

Most of these drivers ARE NOT from training companies.

Get a grip and stop blaming such companies for everything. Most times on my end it's O/O and L/O. Noobs either do not flash or use the cut off switch on the dash.

Is that was this board is for ? To blame new drivers for anything and everything ? Seems like it.

Is it the new drivers blocking the Rest Area entrances all night ? Is it new drivers on every off-ramp and on-ramp along the I-5 ? Is it Training Companies teaching the new drivers to jam up the Brake Check area at night so no one else can use it for it intended purpose ?

CSA doesn't exist because New Drivers could not regulate themselves.

 

I used to drive for landstar.

I guess you will never know about my driving. I do not sit at docks.

I am not a company driver either.

I have never called you a name.

Since you are inclined to use personal attacks, our conversation is over.

 

Well if you'd stop waiting for the good paying loads you'd get more miles driver!

 

Well, at least you showed your true colors. Wow talk about career progression: 11 years experience and a wopping .23 cents a mile? you have got to be kidding all of us.
