First rule about surviving the inspection blitz

Negatory, this is the last day of the blitz. It's over tomorrow.

 

I survived… passed through 5-6 check points… got waved through. Pays to have a clean truck, I guess. They opted for the clunky older trucks that were behind me every time. This was over the course of all three days.

 

Any time I pass through a checkpoint or weigh station where the DOT stand outside and "randomly" wave us in for a level 1/2/3, I flip on all my lights and 4 ways… unless there's a sign that reads "turn off headlights"

 

I had about a million bugs splattered all over my truck and got the wave through, so I guess new trucks don't even have to be clean to get a pass.

 

Yeah I think they wait for the guys that have 900 pieces of crap all over their dash with a TV duct taped to the passenger seat playing naughty videos.

 

I don't. With my luck, that's when one will burn out.

I volunteer nothing but downshifting on the off ramp.

 

Ah… I'm super anal about my lights. I have spares for every kind in my toolbox.

 

Don't those headlights take up a lot of room in a toolbox?

 

I actually got told to park it one time doing that as the trooper thought I had a short in my wiring. I was like I turned them on for you lol. I got a clean inspection and $100 from the company for that.

bulbs ain't that big
