More info.
The downloadable version says new 2011/12 version but the order form still says 2010. I emailed them but no response. So I ordered more anyway last week and will let you know if it's just a typo or if they have not actually printed the new ones yet. -
Most important thing to do is remain calm and stop moving forward if u are uncertain about bridges or the road ahead...Being from NY, not only are the street sign hard to understand for new yorkers, being in a panic and driving a big rig only makes things tougher....I see this easily about once a month....trucks jamming themselves under overpasses...
dirtyjerz Thanks this. -
Yeah and stay off the parkways, i always hear about an "unauthorized" tractor trailer being uncorked from a 9'7" overpass.
-
Thanks I will bookmark that.

I have XM in my truck. I listen to NYC traffic all the time, just for grins. And every couple of days or so, without fail, I hear the words "Parkway" and "unauthorized tractor-trailer."
Don't some of these people know parkways are restricted in New York State? -
I think there is a non-significant portion of the driver workforce who cannot read.
-
All they know is there G.P.S. is telling them to go that way!! Its hard enought to watch the gps you cant expect them to see no truck sign's
-
Right, how do you think cre gets so many with lease deals.

In NY there are a few roads labeled "Parkway" that are legal for trucks. To get to where I work you have to take the "William Floyd Parkway". Not a typical NY parkway, no low bridges. Drivers call all the time screaming about how there not going to get on a parkway to make the delivery its pretty funny!
