Trans Am Still

I need to try and brighten it up some ....it's not a turn signal, he hit his brakes before he cut in front of the truck. The little bobble that he did had me stumped ...but I think he lost track of his position and lost sight of the guardrail. The King felt like they were trying to either squeeze him into the guardrail or get him to tap one of them ....the car that was on his side back at the rear of the trailer. There was another car behind him riding his tail. He said they came up behind him doing 80+ mph and then started riding all around him. The other two cars dropped way back after the first one flew on up the road and then disappeared.

This week another driver in Illinois is describing a very similar incident.....and a dark SUV.

 

If this is happened more than once I would suggest trying to get the word out and plate numbers if possible. And take them and any drive cam footage to at least your highway patrol so they can get the word out to other states to see if they have had similar issues reported.

 

We did SRQGhost. I was able to freeze the video and get a plate number, we made a copy of the video,(far better quality than trying to upload it), and gave it to the owner of the company who then turned it in. The original video is around five minutes long and shows more of how the cars were working together ....although I wasn't able to get a plate number on them. But I guess this is a low priority issue....until something happens. Three incidences in Illinois, two on I-55 one on I-64.

 

So...if God really wanted us to be truck drivers, he would have given us a Popeye-like left leg and..what?...a shotgun camera!

 

Yeah low priority, and it will prob still be low priority if a driver gets hurt and maybe higher if the worst happens.

 

Add North Carolina to the list of states doing some kind of mini blitz today

 

I just sent in my 009 empty call. I just got back a 102 form message. It says 102 NO LOAD. "WE HAVE RECEIVED YOUR EMPTY CALL AND WILL SEND YOUR DISPACH INFORMAITON WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE ... PLEASE BE PATIENT."

I just had to wait 22 hours to make a swap delivery, with paid miles of 240 for the last 2 days. I never got a 102 NO LOAD message before, I can't see how it can be good.

 

Add Missouri I-29, and Oregon to the list of states today.

 

These 5 Denver wireless hot spots are known to be used by hackers, says security firm
www.thedenverchannel.com

Wireless networks appear on this map for two reasons. They may be business-provided hot spots using outdated security protocols, thus leaving them vulnerable to breaches, or they are illegitimate malicious networks skimming any information they...

 

I don't remember all of the different number codes passport, but I do remember several times over the years that the King received a similar message ....something to the effect that there was no load available for this unit. It seems like things stay messed up for a couple of weeks any time there has been a holiday weekend. In the years that the King was there September, December and mid February to mid-March were the worst months. Everything screwed up and a mess as far as dispatch and swaps .....and because it was in between freight hauling seasons. Summer was over and school had started but it wasn't quite the holiday frenzy yet, then December all Christmas goods had already been delivered and stores were doing inventory, mid-February the New Year and Valentines celebrations were over and it wasn't quite time to haul Easter hams and candy. Hang in there, it should begin to get better shortly.
