    my company thinks i have a million, but i dont think so.

    they think if you go 4 yrs clean you get those miles (say 460,000)

    then 5th yr have an accident over $300, 5th yr miles dont count.

    go clean next 5yrs (say 560,000)

    they count that as 460,000+560,000 = 1,020,000 miles.

    i count that as 560,000 clean.

    hi,i have 2.4million in 27 years, one seatbelt,2 over on axles and one ticket for peeing in T.N. i never paid.when i started at 16 cpm i never even thought about it now i allmost wish i would have a bender to get this off my back.now i am over cautious trying to get to 3mil. i work with a fellow had his 3mil in, trucker hall of fame, 3,000.00 check from the company,dinner whole works and rolled 2 days later. i am proof even a few seaturtles get across the road, past the seagulls,and into the ocean.

    Right here! Just got 1,000,000 miles in last year. I'm looking forward to the next million as well. The keys to 1,000,000 is patience. To you guys just coming in, it's not as bad as some make it out to be. Remember, it's the journey, not the destination. There's so much to see in this big beautiful country we live in. And don't forget, be professional every day in every way!

    Close to 1.5 million. No tickets, no accidents, no points on inspections!

    Im local now though, so it will take me forever to get to 2 million.
