    On my 2011 Kenworth, with ridiculous sleeper, everytime I close the drivers door the interior light goes out, how am I supposed to fill out my driver paperwork if I cant see the forms? I tried to read my Big Time Over the Road Truckers Atlas going down the road the other night and had to keep opening the door to see where I was.

    Started the new job on April 10th, doing pretty good. Sorry to take so long to reply - I had to purchase a new computer. Thankfully I'm all caught up on bills back home now as well. Working flatbed SE Regional for a small company out of FL.

    I settled with them for 5,000.00. 3,400 was taken out for what I owed them, I got the rest.

    Sorry, I never drove a Kenworth but could it be as simple as turning your headlight knob to the left like on my car and RV? If all else fails, read the manual. There may be a clue there.

    The company is going to charge me 260.00 for a bus ticket back to FL which is coming out of my next paycheck.

    I know this is an old post, but for anyone reading this; federal law states 'a trucking company is responsible to transport or pay the fees to return a dismissed driver to their home state line'. This means they have to get you to at least your state line but not all the way home. You should read-up on the laws some and shove it back at them.

    All of you poking fun. Very unprofessional. Their is a technique for stab braking, very much the same process as pumping the brakes.

    Is the guy lying. Not your call to speculate.

    What if he is not lying?
