    That's an interesting show, but I just can't get past Mr. Over Zealous as host.

    it shows why I would shut it down when it got real bad and go to bed. CRAP HAPPENS and up there it can be deadly.

    for most LTL guys if the road is open, you are expected to get the freight there

    It's not so bad; just take your time, drive the load, not the road, and stay away from the packs of trucks. Throwing iron usually boosts your confidence quite a bit and things become a bit more relaxed.
