Dot warning tickets.

Life is a simple series of choices. He obviously knows he would be putting his and others lives at risk driving the equipment he complains about. Now the simple choice is what is a life worth?

I value mine far and above what any job could possibly compensate for. The problem arises when people hold theirs cheap.

 

I was thinking about it recently... Since it happens sometimes..
What If I came to shipper or receiver 11pm and next morning they woke me up to unload me and put time like 8am on BOL.. So I start at 9am PTI+unload -9:30 driving. Would I get a ticket for that?

 

Shipper can stamp any time they want to on the paperwork. There's no way to say whether you dropped the trailer in a door and went to bed, then collected your paperwork and hooked up an hour or two after the shipper was finished and stamped your paperwork.

The problem would be if you show yourself driving before the time stamp. Of course, the stamp clock could be wrong, too. That has happened before.

 

Here's where you file and the 2nd link is the report.

...which most likely goes back to the same cop who wrote the ticket. And now you're askin' the jerk to say he was wrong?

Yeah. Fat chance.

 

Yes, ultimately it will end up with the officer who did the original inspection.

However, it originally goes to the official point of contact in the officer's agency, typically somewhere at the top. It then filters down through the supervisory chain to the officer. His supervisors will be aware of your challenge.

In some organizations the officer must answer each challenge in a meeting with his immediate supervisor. If the violations in question are found to be invalid or incorrect they can be removed from the original inspection and your record.

Most agencies take these inspection challenges quite seriously.

 

Then explain the Indiana and Illinois DOT... my info is they routinely reject all challenges.

 

I agree 100%. But the one about 2 hours on line 1, and 8 in the sleeper, anybody can see that one was wrong.

 

BINGO!!!
Good luck with a DataQ in Illinois!!!
There was a rouge O/O that was using our carrier name, USDOT & MC numbers that got caught in Ill and was put out of service for a whole host of things and it went on are record. Went the DataQ route and took 2 months to be removed than 15 months later for what ever reason its now back on are record.
We proved this guy was neither a company driver or a lease operator.

Using DataQ is like going to the same judge that convected you of a crime you didnt do, then going back before him and telling him he was wrong, he may or may not listen but wont do anything about it.

 

I hope your joking about that 8+2=10 or 2+8=10. No fuzzy math in that.
