    and herein lies the problem

    we all come across roads that have signs that say one thing, and the reality is different

    so if you are lost, that makes it even more cumbersome, and then to have barney sitting there at the ready to take money out of your pocket makes it worse, and then to have a $5,000 fine for a mistake is criminal

    but stuff rolls downhill, right?

    old news, but he didn't spend christmas '11 in jail after all. The judge that set the bail so ###### high lowered it to $1200, and a company rep showed up with the cash.

    Apparently (in the first video) the boss tried to get a bail bond to get his driver out of jail, but the court insisted on cash. Why??

    GPS isn't all that reliable for truckers (or some car drivers, if you hear their tales of woe).
