Lol. You're right. Some of these people amaze me. Like a lot. I do a lot of light maintenance stuff, mudflats, lights. Headlights, wipers, fluids. The biggest pain is putting coolant in a reefer considering how high up the tank is. I do work on the APU if I can when it warrants and other small stuff. A tire, however, I will call for road service if a tire place is too far. You can do a lot of damage to your equipment and other vehicles when a tire blows. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Some guys..... Jesus. I'll tell ya. Scary.
Blown tire: how far do you think I can drive?

U guys are funny people, but you would make a good fly
This was like 2 weeks, 6000 miles, and 30 loads ago. Time to move on
Even Though I wouldn't have encountered a cop at night on an inside tire, I will play along. Do u really think I would have told him "sorry officer, I only have 100 miles to go, I think I can make it" or do u think I would have said "I didn't know that, I guess I couldn't tell in the dark, thank you for pulling me over officer and bringing it to my attention. Ill put up my reflective triangles right now and sit here ad long ad it takes" my guess is on the latter -
You out-smart everybody, don't you..?? You're such a clever fellow, wish I had drivers like you..!!
