    See the problem I have here is the board is jammed packed full of information and a lot of new eyes look at this information and take it as it is the LAW. You could very well be right with your answer but you could also be wrong. That's the whole purpose behind asking for the reference.
    I'm sure you could also understand that if I was to go and quote your statement to someone that needs to know and they ask where does that requirement come from I'd like to say anything but the internet. I hope you understand. Thanks.

    I understand, lots of crap on the interweb, can't post the link from my iPhone but it is on new York states dot page, you also need to have tractors and lead trailers certified, I tried getting certified when I started doing a line haul but I have 4 months to go. Funny thing is it only comes up in a dot audit of the company, you don't need to carry it with you just have the endorsement on your license.


    Also in the north east we are only allowed to pull Turnpike doubles, no triples, and we have to stay on i90 or i87
