How can I help? Flat Bedders work. Beats wearing "sweat pants" as much as I know. Recievers like to unload in the daytime. I get some sleep.
camels76 Thanks this. -
Cant sleep if you on the road in traffic.
Last time i was in a stop like that i got out my george forman and started grilling burgers for everyone near by.camels76 Thanks this. -
You and the driver next to you could both fall asleep.
On I10 in Louisiana not so long ago, the two drivers were blocking traffic long after the accident had been cleared. Idiots. -
Take a nap cause you know as soon as you fall asleep they're gonna start moving!

LMFBO! Now that's funny right there! What a couple of toolboxes! Hahaha

Had a guy in a cargo van nod off in front of me on the Major Deegan while traffic was stopped for a car fire on the GWB approach. When traffic started moving, he did not. No amount of city horn / air horn would get him going. Finally jumped out, ran up and grabbed his arm (which was hanging out the window) to wake him up. He slammed it into drive and floored it. He never looked at me, and I'm pretty sure he didn't wake up until about 1/2 mile later.

Uh, if its after 6 you should be safely tucked away in a truck stop chillin. Your a flatbed driver... you drive from 7-8 till 5-6. the faster you learn that the better off you will be. you can thank me later because it may take you a while to realize that im totally serious and 90% of the time that should be the case.
Cluck Cluck and milskired Thank this. -
I did exactly what you did keepontrucking,got on the computer.Made a bad situation not so bad.
keepontrucking81 Thanks this. -
ehh u'll be fine driver u'll make it through there eventually the key is just get the majority of ur miles done so you can get a decent night sleep and maybe even a day off thats what i do if i got a 1000 mile run i'll just do it over night and get there a day early and take the next day to relax and unwind
